IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019 Abstract The demand for technical and verified documentation of buildings and building materials is growing, along with the increasing focus on sustainability in the built environment. However, despite a common wish to build sustainably, it is still found that EPDs and LCAs are not always similarly interpreted, leading to ...

BioResources, 2023 The building sector has seen recent growth in the number of published environmental product declarations (EPDs). EPDs share environmental data of construction materials, which can help building practitioners prioritize products with lower environmental impacts. However, EPDs rely on varying assumptions within their life cycle assessment (LCA).

Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for Clay Construction Product
, 2021 Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) for clay construction products provide important information about those products and their use. The professional and technical foundations of the EPD must be verifiable and must meet the requirements of ISO 14025 for ecolabels, the ISO 21930 for EPD for building products, and the more specific EN 15804 for ...

Emerging Materials and Future Strategies for Solid Oxide Electrochemical Cells
Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.Solid oxide electrochemical cells operate under strongly coupled electrochemical and thermodynamic conditions, where performance is constrained by interactions among crystal structure, defect chemistry, and interfacial evolution. This review, based on a structure‐defect‐property‐durability framework, reveals the roles of lattice symmetry and defect ...

Pancake Lenses through Curved Lamination for Compact Virtual Reality
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This article presents an ultrathin VR optical system based on a 1.35 in. microdisplay, leveraging curved lamination technology. Compared to mainstream solutions, the proposed design demonstrates superior compactness (volume compression by 12%) and enhanced optical performance.
