Feasibility of Green Roofs in the Main South Community of Worcester, Massachusetts

open access: yes, 2010
The goal of our project was to determine the feasibility of installing green roofs in two locations and determine other possible sites in Main South. Green roofs weigh 11 psf to 80+ psf.

Transition Metal Compounds as Thermochromic Materials: Classification, Properties, Limitations, and Applications

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This review systematically examines how different transition metal compounds—such as binary and multinary metal oxides, halides, sulfides, and salts—exhibit thermochromism based on the d‐electron configurations of their transition metal cations. It focuses on three main mechanisms of thermochromism: phase transition, charge transfer, and bandgap change.

New‐Generation Integrated Devices: Multiple‐Energy Utilization and Integration Systems Based on Perovskite Photovoltaics

open access: yesEcoEnergy, EarlyView.
This review highlights emerging integrated energy systems based on perovskite photovoltaics, including PSC–thermoelectric, photovoltaic–electrochemical, self‐charging, and building‐integrated architectures. By coupling multiple energy conversion and storage pathways, these multifunctional platforms enable enhanced solar utilization, improved stability,

Evaluating Seismic Resistance and Energy Dissipation of CFRP‐Reinforced Concrete Frames Under Monotonic Loading

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering and Resilience, EarlyView.
“It was found that good ductility can be achieved in CFRP‐strengthened frames, and this result was validated through experimental testing.” ABSTRACT Reinforced concrete structures are increasingly vulnerable to deterioration by steel reinforcement corrosion, resulting in severe loss of fracture strength and service life, particularly in severe ...

Evaluation of the Adequacy of Design Specifications for Nonstructural Components in a Reticular Structure

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonstructural components (NSCs) installed in large‐span reticular structures were frequently severely damaged during earthquakes, even when the primary structure remained intact. Existing seismic design specifications for NSCs were predominantly developed for upright structures such as multi‐storey buildings and offer no guidance for reticular
