Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...

Forest Theatre Daylighting Project

open access: yes, 2016
Daylighting is an urban drainage design concept that converts a stormwater culvert into an open channel to improve stormwater management, water quality and reduce peak runoff volumes. Daylighting streams on the UNC campus can also assist the University's

Transition Metal Compounds as Thermochromic Materials: Classification, Properties, Limitations, and Applications

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This review systematically examines how different transition metal compounds—such as binary and multinary metal oxides, halides, sulfides, and salts—exhibit thermochromism based on the d‐electron configurations of their transition metal cations. It focuses on three main mechanisms of thermochromism: phase transition, charge transfer, and bandgap change.

Experience Choreographed Through Light: Exploring the Emotive Nature of Daylighting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Winston Churchill once said, “First we shape our buildings, thereafter, they shape us”. This speaks both to how we design a building, and to the effect that design has on us.

A parametric approach for achieving optimum daylighting performance through solar screens in desert climates

open access: yes, 2015
Daylighting provision gives a significant contribution to the enhancement of the indoor environment. However, in desert climates spaces are exposed to direct solar radiation, leading to a non-uniform daylight distribution and excessive heat gain.

Co‐Firing Slow Solidification Process for Growing Indium‐Doped Cs3Cu2I5 Single Crystals With Record‐Breaking X‐Ray Detection Performance

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A novel brand‐new co‐firing slow solidification process has been used to prepare Cs3Cu2I5: In single crystals (SCs), which demonstrate record‐breaking X‐ray detection performance. The regular‐shaped Cs3Cu2I5: In wafer obtains a high light yield (74 368 Ph MeV−1), which is the highest related to indium‐doped Cu‐based perovskites.
