The Raman Spectrum of Gypsum [PDF]

open access: yes, 1929
In an investigation of the Raman spectra of some ionized substances in aqueous solution, it was found [1] that the frequency shift given by a solution of potassium carbonate was in fairly close agreement with the strongest shift given by calcite.

Microbial and metabolic succession on common building materials under high humidity conditions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Despite considerable efforts to characterize the microbial ecology of the built environment, the metabolic mechanisms underpinning microbial colonization and successional dynamics remain unclear, particularly at high moisture conditions. Here, we applied

Numerical and experimental study on P‐wave propagation across a rock joint with different orientations

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Joint orientation significantly affects P‐wave velocity, with the highest velocity at zero‐degree angles, decreasing to 30° as the angle increases. The velocity increases slightly from 30 to 45 degrees but sharply decreases from 45 to 90 degrees. Abstract Determination of the required parameters in different science contexts using the ultrasonic wave ...

Messinian evaporites in the Polemi Basin (South Cyprus): 87Sr/86Sr, δ34S and δ18O isotope geochemistry

open access: yesGeogaceta
The Polemi basin (S Cyprus) records a well exposed Messinian Salinity Crisis (MSC) evaporite succession divided into three lithostratigraphic units: Lower Gypsum, Intermediate Gypsum Breccia, and Upper Gypsum.

a-Hemihydrate Gypsum from Flue Gas Desulphurization Gypsum

open access: yesMaterials Science, 2013
In this work, properties of sulphate technogenic raw material – flue gas desulphurization (FGD) gypsum have been investigated in order to obtain α-hemihydrate gypsum as gypsum binding material. FGD gypsum is produced as a by-product during the process of desulphurization of exhaust gas emitted in power stations heated by fuel containing sulphur. It has

Seismic analysis and design of tunnels within fault ground: A review

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The research methods of seismic response of tunnels within fault ground, including field investigations, analytical solutions, physical experiments, and numerical simulations, and seismic countermeasures are discussed. The present study examines the shortcomings and limitations of the current research and design, and puts forward proposals for future ...

On modelling moisture buffering when evaluating humidity controlled HVAC systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
As most building energy simulation programs focus on the thermal response of the building, the relative humidity of the indoor air is often calculated in a simplified way.

Selective Optical Properties of Cement for Enhanced Radiative Cooling and Energy‐Efficient Construction Materials

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Cement phases are good materials for radiative cooling thanks to the selective emissivity in IR ATW. Cement powders have high reflectance of solar radiation which reduces the thermal losses. The onset of the absorption curves is defined by bound excitons. Sulfates have higher radiated powers and reflectance than calcium silicates.

In-situ early age hydration of cement-based materials by synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cement based binders are building materials of worldwide importance. Since these samples are very complex, the knowledge/control of their mineralogical composition are essential to design and predict materials with specific/improved performance. Rietveld
