Durability of Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate Concrete

Procedia Engineering, 2013
AbstractThe paper describes a development and use of lightweight concrete and lightweight self-compacting concrete using artificial lightweight aggregate based on expanded clay for ready mix concrete and precast elements. The objective of this research was to evaluate the lightweight concrete on durability of concretes placed in chemically aggressive ...

Aptamer‐Directed Porous DNA Nanocomposite Hydrogel for Active Pulp Preservation: Immunomodulation, Stem Cell Recruitment and Reparative Dentinogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents an injectable DNA‐based porous hydrogel integrating catechol motifs and targeting aptamers for pulpitis management. Upon in situ crosslinking, the scaffold actively recruits endogenous dental pulp stem cells, restores redox homeostasis, and modulates immune responses.

Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuators for Radially Contracting Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents an Electrohydraulic Folding Ring Actuator that combines high‐performance electrohydraulic actuation with origami‐inspired folding geometry to achieve constricting radial actuation. This integration yields significant inner lumen constriction, alongside a gripping force capable of holding objects exceeding four times the actuator's ...

The Effect of Expanded Glass and Expanded Clay Aggregate Additives on Water Vapor Diffusion Based on Wet Cup Method in Cementitious Lightweight Mortars for Sustainable Buildings

Sakarya Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü Dergisi
Water vapor permeability is the ability of a material to allow vapor (such as water vapor or any gas) to pass through it. Water vapor permeability also indicates the breathability of the material.

Oxygen‐Driven Structural Reorganization by Trace Water Enabling Fast Li‐Ion Transport in a Pliable Solid Electrolyte

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Trace water is acting as a constructive mediator in 2LiCl–GaF3, markedly increasing ionic conductivity while reorganizing local coordination. Hydration creates localized Li+ solvation environments and partially dissociates ion pairs, enhancing Li‐ion mobility.

POSSIBILITY OF REUSING EXPANDED CLAY IN GREENHOUSE TOMATO CULTIVATION. PART I. YIELD AND CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF FRUITS

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2012
One of the possibility that allow costs of soilless tomato culture to be reduced is to reuse the same growing medium. Expanded clay is classified as an inert medium, that is, chemically and biologically passive, although some studies indicate the ...

Silicon‐Based Anodes for Sulfide Solid‐State Batteries: Failure Mechanisms and Multiscale Design Strategies

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Silicon anodes in sulfide SSBs face coupled electrochemo‐mechanical failure by interface instability. This review examined recent advances and proposed mitigation strategies via material‐, electrode/interface‐, and cell‐level‐ engineering. We further evaluate scalable synthesis of sulfide SEs.

Extreme Weather Events and Consumer Food Responses

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates consumer food responses to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, which affected a swath of the Southeastern U.S. in 2024. Using representative consumer survey data from six affected states, we analyze 10 distinct food responses classified into ex ante and ex post responses, and examine their associations with food insufficiency
