Embodied energy: Soil retaining geosystems
KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering, 2011 Embodied energy is defined as the total energy in joules that can be attributed to bringing an item to its existing state. This paper attempts to quantify the amount of energy that is put into constructing geotechnical structures. In this study, several common retaining wall options are designed for (i) a hypothetical highway widening project based on ...

International energy trade impacts on water resource crises: an embodied water flows perspective
Environmental Research Letters, 2016 Water and energy are coupled in intimate ways (Siddiqi and Anadon 2011 Energy Policy http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.enpol.2011.04.023 39 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.enpol.2011.04.023 ), which is amplified by international energy trade.

Optically driven silicon-based quantum gates with potential for high-temperature operation [PDF]
, 2003 We propose a new approach to constructing gates for quantum information processing, exploiting the proper-ties of impurities in silicon. Quantum information, embodied in electron spins bound to deep donors, is coupled via optically induced electronic ...

Embodied Energy in Building Construction
Jurnal Teknologi, 2014 Building construction systems that come in different forms and types need to be properly selected before being use, this may have different impact on overall embodied energy of the building construction. Hence, in order to achieve and maximize the construction contribution, the designer plays a big role in choosing the appropriate energy efficient ...

Embodied energy analysis of aluminium-clad windows [PDF]
Building Services Engineering Research and Technology, 2001 This article provides an overview of energy loads associated with the application of powder coated aluminium profiles on the exterior wooden surface of double glazed windows. The entire powder coating process has been analysed to measure its energy and environmental contribution towards window cladding.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.
