Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Considering the needs for reducing carbon emissions and except for extreme cases of very degraded existing structures, research on technologies allowing continued use or upgrading of older buildings has become a priority topic. Generally, research on upgrading of reinforced concrete frame structures certainly has a prominent role, because of ...

ce/papers, 2018 AbstractA correct design project should not only control the load‐bearing capacity and stability of the individual elements but also ensure proper cooperation between these elements. Connection of masonry walls is crucial for durability of the building, safety of its users, and thermal insulation of external walls.

Minimum energy strategies for the in-plane behaviour of masonry
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2020 Unreinforced masonry is the most diffused construction material in the major part of historical centers in Europe. In a building subjected to earthquake forces the contribution of in-plane shear resistance of the masonry walls is a determinant factor for

High‐strength composites by thiocracking of high‐polypropylene‐content mixed waste
Polymer International, EarlyView.Mixed plastic waste made up of polystyrene and polypropylene was reacted with elemental sulfur to give high‐strength composites. Abstract Mixed‐material municipal waste poses a persistent end‐of‐life management challenge because the heterogeneous composition limits efficient separation and recycling. After disposal, mixed‐material waste often fragments

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Social considerations are often overlooked in efforts to achieve sustainable development, despite being critical for building equitable and resilient global value chains. This study addresses this gap by applying a social life cycle assessment to three key Portuguese forest wood supply chains—uncoated woodfree paper, natural cork stoppers, and
