Old materials and techniques to improve the durability of earth buildings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Quite a big part of the world’s heritage is still made by earth constructions. The durability of the existent heritage, as well as the new earth buildings is particularly conditioned by erosion caused by water action, especially in countries with high ...

A Thermodynamic‐Kinetic Model for Basic Oxygen Furnace Tapping: Improved Prediction of Phosphorus and Steel‐Slag Evolution

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
This study develops a thermodynamic–kinetic model for basic oxygen furnace tapping and validates its accuracy under near‐equilibrium and far‐from‐equilibrium initial conditions. Comparison with a reference model demonstrates its broader applicability. The model further reveals the evolution of key steel and slag components, providing new transparency ...

The Application of Hydrochar Composite Briquettes for Sustainable Slag Foaming in the Electric Arc Furnace Process

open access: yessteel research international, EarlyView.
Hydrochar‐mill‐scale briquettes with varying C/O molar ratios (0.07–0.90) have been tested at 1650 °C to evaluate their slag foaming performance for electric arc furnace application. All seven briquette recipes developed succeed in promoting slag foaming.

Radiation‐Induced Degradation in Polymeric Materials: Alterations in Physical–Chemical Properties and Their Effects on Electrical Performance of Insulation Systems

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the effects of radiation on polymeric materials used as insulation systems in electrical equipment such as cables for nuclear and particle accelerator applications. After a detailed description of the physics of radiation‐induced damage in the polymeric matrix, a comprehensive analysis of the physical–chemical and ...

Mechanical characterization of adobe bricks in existing constructions in Aveiro Region, Portugal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In Portugal it is common to find earth constructions all over the country, being predominant in the centre and south. In the past, earth was massified as a construction material, used with different typologies and applications.

Clearing the Air: How Fine Particulate Matter Regulations Reshape Farmland Values in U.S. Corn and Soybean Regions

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate the impact of air quality regulations targeting fine particulate matter (PM2.5) on farmland values in corn and soybean producing counties in the United States over the period 1997–2022. Using self‐reported farmland value data from the Agricultural Census and county‐level pollution classifications provided by the Environmental ...

Molecular basis of antibiotic sensing by the TetR family regulator CecR – a structural perspective

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Escherichia coli CecR, a member of the TetR family regulators, senses selected antibiotics and activates the expression of a putative drug efflux pump. Although present in many pathogenic Enterobacteriales strains, CecR remains poorly characterized. We present the first CecR crystal structure, which reveals a unique tunnel‐like ligand‐binding cavity ...

Creep of plasma sprayed zirconia [PDF]

open access: yes
Specimens of plasma-sprayed zirconia thermal barrier coatings with three different porosities and different initial particle sizes were deformed in compression at initial loads of 1000, 2000, and 3500 psi and temperatures of 1100 C, 1250 C, and 1400 C ...

Lock, relax, load, and shoot: a molecular perspective on Nedd4 regulation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Structural basis of inactive and active states of the Nedd4 HECT E3 ligase subfamily, following a ‘lock, relax, load, and shoot’ mechanism. In the locked, autoinhibited state, intramolecular domain interactions restrain the HECT domain. Relaxation releases these restraints, allowing loading of ubiquitin onto the catalytic cysteine, followed by the ...
