Fire‐Safe Polymeric Insulation Foams for Energy‐Efficient and Low‐Carbon Buildings

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes recent advances in fire‐safe polymeric insulation foams, emphasizing the balance among flame retardancy, thermal insulation, mechanical reliability, and long‐term durability. By linking material‐level thermophysical properties with building cooling‐energy demand and operational carbon emissions, it establishes a ...

Valence Asymmetries of Traits in Dating Contexts

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on traits in dating contexts has typically focused on trait content. We instead examined structural differences in trait frequency and similarity. Prior work suggests that positive information is more frequent, whereas negative information is more diverse and less similar.

Glazing Effects on Dynamic‐Insulation TSC Façades: A CFD‐Supported Experimental Study of Flow, Heat Transfer, and Ventilation Preheating

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Glazed transpired solar collectors achieve 48–75% efficiency and 11% more seasonal heat than unglazed designs by cutting convective losses, while both offer complementary benefits for ventilation preheating and dynamic wall insulation, with paybacks of 5.5–6.8 years.

Whole‐House Thermal Bridge Modelling for Accurate Retrofit Energy Prediction

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study models thermal bridging in a UK semi‐detached house across pre‐ and post‐retrofit scenarios using piecemeal and whole‐house approaches with EWI and IWI. Whole‐house retrofits reduce heat transfer coefficient by 60%; findings demonstrate that default values are often unrepresentative and advocate tailored Ψ value databases.

Study on Fluid Pressure in Tubing, Dynamic Stress in Reservoir, and Fracture Propagation Morphology During Variable‐Rate Hydraulic Fracturing

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Variable‐rate hydraulic fracturing can induce unsteady flow in the tubing, thereby generating fluctuating fluid pressure near the bottom‐hole reservoir. Dynamic stress is generated in the reservoir under the action of fluctuating fluid pressure and propagates as stress waves.

The Critical Role of Economies of Scale: A Techno‐Economic Assessment of Small‐ Versus Large‐Scale Biogas Upgrading in Rural Tanzania

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Small‐scale biogas upgrading can improve methane quality but remains financially unattractive to individual rural households. Community‐scale implementation substantially lowers energy costs, demonstrating that economies of scale are critical to making purified biogas a viable clean‐cooking option in Tanzania.
