Carbon/TiO2 Materials From Textile Waste: A Sustainable Approach for Dye Removal

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT This study synthesized carbon/TiO2 composites from textile waste through titanium isopropoxide impregnation and calcination to address dye contamination in wastewater. The composites exhibited enhanced specific surface area and pore volume with higher TiO2 content.

Topology‐Aware Neural Networks for Abnormal Consumption Detection and Location in Water Distribution Networks

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract This paper presents a topology‐aware neural network approach for the detection, location, and quantification of abnormal consumptions in water distribution networks. The approach includes two main steps: the optimization of pressure sensor locations to maximize measurement sensitivity and the development of metamodels based on near real‐time ...

A Reinforcement Learning–Controlled Novel Mode‐Switching Hybrid Mass Damper on a Real Tower

Structural Control and Health Monitoring, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This work proposes a novel passive, semiactive and active mode‐switching hybrid mass damper (MSHMD) solution for the control of an actual high‐rise tower. For the mode‐switching control of the considered building system, a reinforcement learning algorithm, Deep Q‐Network (DQN), was implemented.

Consolidation treatments applied to ceramic tiles: are they homogeneous?

Materiales de Construccion, 2017
The mass consolidation treatment of azulejos is necessary when ceramic biscuits show signs of disaggregation. Such treatment is often used as a complementary conservation technique to the reestablishment of weakened glaze-ceramic bonds. In this research,
