Upcycling Printed Circuit Board E‐Waste to High‐Strength, Multifunctional, and Reprocessable Sulfur Composites via Thiocracking

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 7, 14 April 2026.
Thiocracking, the one‐pot reaction of elemental sulfur with printed circuit board waste, converts unrecyclable laminates into high‐sulfur composites. The most practical material prepared herein combines cement‐like strength with 100% strength retention after 10 melt–recast cycles, low thermal conductivity (0.37 W m−1 K−1), and antimicrobial efficacy ...

The Layout and Size of an Early Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B Small Settlement Revealed by Geophysical Prospection at Harbetsuvan Tepesi in Southeastern Anatolia

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 519-535, April/June 2026.
ABSTRACT In Upper Mesopotamia, the transition from the Pre‐Pottery Neolithic A (PPNA) to Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB) period, ca. 10 800–10 600 cal. BP, is marked by a series of changes in chipped stone industries, architectural forms, symbolic objects, regional distribution of settlements and long‐distance exchange networks among others.

Behaviour of small masonry assemblages reinforced with a steel cord reinforced joint repointing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Unreinforced masonry (URM) walls are one of the oldest and most common types of construction elements in the world. However they are susceptible to failure when exposed to overstresses, caused by out-of-plane and in-plane loads.

Experimental analysis of dynamic effects of FRP reinforced masonry vaults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
An increasing interest in the preservation of historic structures has produced a need for new methods for reinforcing curved masonry structures, such as arches and vaults.

Seismic Enhancement of Masonry‐Infilled Substandard Reinforced Concrete Frames Using Lightweight Steel Exoskeleton

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 603-623, March 2026.
ABSTRACT A significant portion of existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures in seismically active regions was constructed prior to the adoption of modern seismic design standards, leaving them highly susceptible to earthquake‐induced damage. The vulnerabilities of these structures, often exacerbated by material degradation, have been starkly ...

Early Use of Lime Mortar at the Early Iron Age Piscina Torta Salt Production Site (Tiber Delta, Ostia, Italy)

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents new evidence for the early use of lime mortar during the Early Iron Age at the Piscina Torta site (Ostia, Italy), situated on the earliest Holocene beach ridges in the southern Tiber delta. The site, which was earlier described as a briquetage site, dates from between the late 8th and 6th century BCE and consists of a large

Out-of-plane in situ cyclic testing of unreinforced stone masonry walls with distributed loads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The present paper reports an in situ experimental test campaign carried out on existing buildings, in order to investigate the seismic behaviour of traditional masonry walls subject to out-of-plane loads.

A review of methods for masonry structures strengthening using high-strength composites

open access: yesБудівельні конструкції. Теорія і практика
The relevance of this study stems from the need to preserve and extend the service life of a large number of existing masonry buildings. This applies both to civil structures with brick walls and to historical monuments of architectural heritage.

Optimising Convolutional Neural Networks to Predict the Hygrothermal Performance of Building Components

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
Performing numerous simulations of a building component, for example to assess its hygrothermal performance with consideration of multiple uncertain input parameters, can easily become computationally inhibitive.
