Monitoring of historical structural materials with computed tomography
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract Computed tomography (CT) is an excellent tool to solve certain engineering problems connected to material science (such as sulfate swelling, internal degradation due to freezing, and alkali silicate swelling) and to understand specific processes (frost peeling, acid action).

Exploring the potential of Textile Reinforced Concrete for corrosion‐insensitive retaining walls
Structural Concrete, EarlyView.Abstract In a context where durability concerns, particularly the corrosion of steel reinforcement, remain a critical challenge for conventional reinforced concrete structures under severe exposure, Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is emerging as a promising alternative.

Nature‐Positive Materials Engineering: Carbon Electrodes from Satoyama Biomass
The Chemical Record, EarlyView.Nature‐positive materials engineering can link satoyama forest stewardship with the design of carbon electrodes for batteries, supercapacitors, and electrocatalysis. By turning underused firewood and charcoal resources into functional carbons, this approach reduces mining footprints while supporting biodiversity, landscape resilience, and regional ...

Mass Timber in Tall Building Design
, 2017 The goal of this project was to investigate the viability of a tall mass timber frame in the US through direct comparison to a steel counterpart. The designs for both structures were modeled after FRAMEWORK, an 11 story mixed-use mass timber building ...

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.Abstract Limited engagement between Black Americans and wildlife is often treated as cultural disinterest rather than the outcome of historical exclusion, racialized trauma, or persistent structural barriers. This perspective obscures the long‐standing relationships Black communities have had with land, agriculture, and conservation, and constrains ...
