The influence of moisture on the energy performance of retrofitted walls [PDF]
The renovation of old building facades should be performed mainly considering the building energy demand reduction. For this purpose, it is necessary to select retrofitted solutions that should be able of minimizing heat losses through walls. However, it

Regulation of Lfc, a RhoGEF, by Phosphorylation [PDF]
RhoGTPases oscillate between an inactive GDP-bound state and an active GTP-bound state. The exchange of GDP for GTP is catalyzed by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs).

Evidence for the Involvement of Lfc and Tctex-1 in Axon Formation [PDF]
RhoA and Rac play key and opposite roles during neuronal polarization. We now show that Lfc, a guanosine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), localizes to the Golgi apparatus and growth cones of developing neurons and negatively regulates neurite sprouting and axon formation through a Rho signaling pathway. Tctex-1, a dynein light chain implicated in axon

The Importance of Moisture Content to the Emissivity of Ceramic Bricks
Emissivity is a key parameter if one intends to use quantitative thermography. The importance of temperature, surface characteristics, wavelength and the direction of the emitted radiation in the emissivity is well documented in the literature.

The 3D printing challenge in buildings [PDF]
The rising awareness and usage of Building Information Modelling (BIM), a methodology that allows for better information management and communication amongst the several stakeholders of a building project, opened the construction sector's door to digital
