Rewriting Polymer Fate via Chemomechanical Coupling

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a life‐like “living” polymer platform that can grow, degrow, and reprogram its properties after fabrication. By integrating mass transport, reversible polymerization, and controlled catalysis, the material achieves on‐demand changes in size, shape, and mechanical properties.

Combined heat pump heating and ventilation system using heat of soil, sewage water and ventilation emissions

Journal of Thermal Engineering, 2020
Currently, one of the main energy consumers in many countries is the communal sector. In this case, the bulk of the energy is supplied by fossil sources. In this regard, studies in the field of alternative energy sources that can help solve not only the problem of energy saving, but also the problem of environmental pollution and prevent the ...

Study of a Novel Bi‐Layered Thermoplastic Polyurethane Patch for Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Large congenital diaphragmatic hernia remains a challenge due to the poor compatibility of current prostheses. To tackle this problem, a bilayer thermoplastic polyurethane patch with tunable mechanical properties is engineered, whose fibrous side supports rapid fibroblast and myoblast colonization, while the smooth film limits adhesions.

Numerical Analysis of the Energy Consumption of Ventilation and Dehumidification Processes in the Ice Rink Arena

Applied Sciences
The reduction in energy use in buildings remains a major challenge. In the European Union, buildings account for approximately 40% of the total energy consumption, with sports facilities alone responsible for around 10% of annual use.

A CFD analysis of different human breathing models and its influence on spatial distribution of indoor air parameters

Computer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2017
The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of the indoor environment in buildings requires numerical modelling of a human being (computer simulated person - CSP). There are two crucial aspects in developing reliable CSP models: the CSP geometry and

Technical solutions to prevent heat stress induced crop growth reduction for three climatic regions in Mexico [PDF]

, 2008
In the last 15 years a significant increase in greenhouse area has occurred in Mexico, from a modest 50 hectares in 1990 to over 2,000 hectares in 2004. The rapid increase in greenhouse area is a result of an attractive export market, USA. Mexican summer
