Simulation of wind flow around an alternative flat-roofed fortress tower ruin

open access: yesActa Polytechnica
An analysis of the effects of alternative flat roof sizes and positions on wind flow around a ruin model is presented. The modelled ruin has almost cube-like proportions, with an open roof plane and a destroyed corner.

Study of Gob-Side Entry Retaining Technology with Roof Cutting under Upper Roadway Condition

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2021
Gob-side entry retaining technology with roof cutting (GERRC) has been widely used in flat and near-flat coal seam conditions, but its application under inclined coal seam is still very deficient.

Harmonizing the Pyrene and Ether Groups in Covalent Triazine Polymers for Highly Effective H2O2 Photosynthesis via One‐Step Two‐Electron Oxygen Reduction

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The pyrene and ether groups are incorporated into the covalent triazine polymer (CTP) structure. The synergistic effect of the two functional groups endows CTP with better electron transfer, light absorption, and oxygen activation properties. An impressive apparent quantum yield (13.2% @420 nm) and a remarkable solar‐to‐chemical conversion efficiency ...

On the reduction of the wind-load on buildings by using cantilever parapets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The high wind loads on building roofs are normally associated with very intense vortex formed close to the windward roof eaves, which cause intense suction loads on the roof elements.
