Renewal of aging residential buildings for electricity saving and carbon mitigation under climate change

npj Urban Sustainability
Climate change is amplifying Residential Electricity Carbon Emissions (RECE), with aging buildings posing challenges. Due to lack of era-specific assessments of RECE, it still remains unclear whether urban renewal strategies can effectively counteract ...

influence of plasterboard clad walls on the structural behaviour of low rise residential buildings

Electronic Journal of Structural Engineering, 2002
While the design and technology of conventional low rise light framed residential structures are relatively simple, their response to lateral loading is quite complex. This is due to the high degree of redundancy, the irregular geometry and interaction between the structural and non-structural components.

Asymmetric Cu─N─Ru Bridgedsite Nanozyme‐Loaded Injectable Thermogel Boosts Cuproptosis‐Like Death for Multidrug‐Resistant Urinary Tract Infections

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
To address multidrug‐resistant urinary tract infections (MDR‐UTIs), we developed Cu‐ZIF8‐Ru nanozyme featuring an asymmetric Cu─N─Ru catalytic site. This unique structure enhances multienzyme‐mimetic activity, eradicating resistant bacteria by inducing a cuproptosis‐like death pathway through intracellular Cu2+ accumulation and energy depletion.

EGaIn‐Activated Bioinspired Silk Micro/Nanofibril Eutectogels Breaking the Strength–Conductivity Trade‐Off for High‐Performance Wearable Bioelectronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the extracellular matrix, eutectogels are prepared by in situ deconstruction of silk fibroin into micro/nanofibrils and EGaIn‐induced polymerization. The multiscale fibril network with dynamic crosslinking achieves high strength (1.25 MPa), toughness (23.09 MJ m−3), and conductivity (1.51 S m−1), outperforming previous natural polymer ...

ROS‐Responsive Wedelolactone Hydrogel Promotes Intervertebral Disc Repair by Disrupting the NF‐κB–LCN2 Inflammatory Feedback Loop

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A mechanically robust, ROS‐responsive hydrogel is engineered to treat intervertebral disc degeneration by targeting the NF‐κB–LCN2 inflammatory feedback loop. By delivering wedelolactone specifically within oxidative niches, this system disrupts macrophage–disc cell crosstalk.
