Fabrication of foam concrete by use of novel foam generator — vortex jet apparatus: study of foam concrete properties

open access: yesIndustrial processes and technologies, 2023
A new method of foam concrete production by use of vortex jet apparatus (VJA) is studied. The foam produced by VJA exhibits high stability and narrow size distribution of the bubbles’ diameter and the latter correlates well with diameters of foam concrete pores.

Geopolymers as a Sustainable Chemical Platform: From Building Materials to Advanced Functional Applications

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Geopolymers are presented as a chemically programmable platform whose properties emerge from activation chemistry, nanoscale disorder, and interfacial design. The review highlights sustainability challenges, the shift toward nanoengineered and hybrid systems, and the rise of halloysite‐based architectures enabling tunable structures across scales for ...

‘I really like being on the floor, because I spend all the time in my chair’: Children with disabilities' experiences of physical activity in school

open access: yesBritish Journal of Special Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Children with multiple disabilities often encounter significant barriers to participating in physical activity, impacting not only their physical health but also their overall experience in school. This study places the voices of four children at the centre of their own research, exploring their lived experiences of participating in physical ...

Containing Histories Past and Present: Making Samples in the “Huntington Collection” (1893–1921)

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Huntington Anatomical Collection (1893–1921) includes the skeletal remains of immigrants, migrants, and lifelong New York City residents. The collection's formation was coeval with the formalization of physical anthropology, and the collection was made to serve research aims centered on race and origin.

Macau as Method: Recombinant Urbanism in Post‐Socialist China

open access: yesAsia Pacific Viewpoint, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In ‘Asia as Method’, Chen Kuan‐Hsing argues for the value of an indigenous inter‐Asian approach to analysing the effects of European imperialism on the countries and citizens of Asia. This article mobilises both Chen's inter‐Asian referencing strategy and the city‐state of Macau to explore Macau's role in China's engagements with global ...

Ductility, Toughness, and Flexural Performance of Hybrid Foamed-Normal Concrete Beams

open access: yesIraqi Journal of Civil Engineering
A study examined the ductility and toughness properties of beams made of reinforced concrete, including foamed, normal, and hybrid beams. Nine reinforced concrete beams were produced: three foamed concrete beams, three normal concrete beams, and three ...

Dynamic Wave Trains: A Procedural Approach to Spatially Varying Ocean Synthesis

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
In this paper, we present a high performance procedural model capable of synthesizing and rendering a virtually infinite ocean. Our method exhibits spatial variations as the orientations, speed and choppiness of the waves is parametrized for each frequencies and each point in space. The provided visual abstract exhibits a sunset rendering of a large 40

Progressive Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis Diagnosis Masking Pneumonic Lung Carcinoma: Anchoring Bias in Critical Care

open access: yesCytopathology, EarlyView.
A presumed case of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis with clinical deterioration was ultimately identified at autopsy as pneumonic‐type pleomorphic carcinoma. This case highlights the diagnostic overlap between diffuse lung diseases and the risk of anchoring bias in critically ill patients.
