The engineering geology of the Nottingham area, UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Nottingham was built near a crossing point on the River Trent in the East Midlands of England. Initially, the City developed on a low sandstone hill close to the north bank of the river, which provided a secure, well-drained location above the marshes ...

CREEP OF EXPANDED CLAY CONCRETE UNDER COMPRESSION AND TENSION

open access: yes, 2022
The paper presents a method for experimentally determining the creep of expanded clay concrete under compression and tension. The results of determining the deformation and the measure of creep, and the previous loading on the strength and modulus of elasticity of expanded clay concrete, as well as the kinetics of changes in the deformation and measure

Biocomposites Based on Thermoplastic Starch and Granite Sand Quarry Waste [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Granite stone is a by-product of the rock crushing manufacturing. An industrial waste in powder form that causes health problems and environmental pollution. Fine particles fraction can be used as a partial replacement of sand in concrete manufacture. In

Porous materials in building energy technologies—a review of the applications, modelling and experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Improving energy efficiency in buildings is central to achieving the goals set by Paris agreement in 2015, as it reduces the energy consumption and consequently the emission of greenhouse gases without jeopardising human comfort.

Elephant‐Skin‐Inspired Porous Cementitious Tiles with Programmable Crack Networks for Passive Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Elephant‐skin‐inspired crack networks are programmed in porous diatomaceous earth (DE)‐cement composites using substrate‐guided, stress‐concentration induced fracture. The resulting crack lattices act as capillary conduits that redistribute water, while the porous matrix stores moisture.

Autogenous shrinkage, speciality of high performance concretes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Autogenous shrinkage is a consequence of self dessication in pores of hardened cement paste and is, at high performance concrete significantly greater than that of the ordinary concretes, mainly due to low water to cement ratio.

The coelurosaur theropods of the Romualdo formation, early Cretaceous (Aptian) of Brazil: Santanaraptor placidus meets Mirischia asymmetrica

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The upper carbonate concretion levels of the Romualdo Formation (Aptian, Brazil) have yielded several theropod dinosaur remains, including spinosaurids and the coelurosaurs Santanaraptor placidus and Mirischia asymmetrica, the phylogenetic affinities of which are controversial.

Modeling Marshall stability of lightweight asphalt concretes fabricated using expanded clay aggregate with anfis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this study, an Adaptive Neural Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) model for predicting the Marshall Stability (MS) of lightweight asphalt concrete containing expanded clay (EC) and has various mix proportions has been developed.

Failure and impact behavior of facade panels made of glass fiber reinforced cement(GRC) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
GRC is a cementitious composite material made up of a cement mortar matrix and chopped glass fibers. Due to its outstanding mechanical properties, GRC has been widely used to produce cladding panels and some civil engineering elements.

Multi‐Method Geophysical Surveys Between and Around the Kerlescan and the Manio Megalithic Alignments in Carnac (Morbihan, France)

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Carnac alignments in Morbihan (France) are among the most famous Neolithic sites of the world. Paradoxically, they have benefited little from a thorough renewal of archaeological data over the past century. There are many reasons for this, but it is mainly because the site has been regarded more as a monument to visit and protect than as ...
