Additives' structures. ABSTRACT Poly(vinyl chloride) has been a key polymeric material since its commercial production in 1931, demonstrating versatility across numerous industries due to its compatibility with various additives. PVC's inherent properties, flame retardance, durability, and recyclability make it ideal for building and construction ...

Fit-in GFRP Liner for Retrofitting Corroded Metal Culverts [PDF]
Corrugated metal pipes (CMPs) have been used as culverts in North America since the 1950s. Today, corrosion of CMPs is a major problem that requires an urgent and efficient solution to retrofit thousands of corroded CMPs across the country. One potential

REPRODUCING OPERATIONAL LANDSCAPES: The Rock Mining for Indonesia's New Capital City
Abstract Indonesia's new capital city is designed to become a green and sustainable city. In this article, we examine the (un)sustainability of the process through which the city is coming into being. Using the sociospatial theory of planetary urbanization, we trace the dialectical relationship between the new city and sites beyond it to show how ...

What dominates heat transfer performance of a double-pipe heat exchanger
ZnO–water nanofluid in an inner pipe was experimentally investigated to improve the thermal efficiency of double-pipe heat exchangers. In this work, a 57.6% increase in the Nusselt number was obtained at Re = 14,340 when the ZnO–water nanofluid flowed ...

Abstract It has recently been demonstrated that modern recreational fish finders with high‐frequency (800 kHz) Sidescan transducers can detect submerged human bodies. This ubiquitous technology is widely used on the water and has the potential to be utilized for the rapid detection of submerged decedents in any waterbody.

Fire sprinkler systems are critical for fire safety, but their functionality can be impaired by seismic damage. This study develops new seismic fragility functions for acceleration‐sensitive damage requiring monitoring, maintenance, and repair in code‐compliant fire sprinkler piping systems, using experimental data from full‐scale experimental tests ...
