Air Leakage of Joints Filled with Polyurethane Foam
Buildings, 2019 Air leakage through the building envelope joints is usually one of the main reasons why airtightness targets are not achieved. The objective of this study was to analyse the air leakage of joints filled with polyurethane foam and its influencing factors.

On the viability of nearly zero energy buildings in the Mediterranean urban contexts
Advances in Building Energy Research, 2014 The aim of this paper is to study, evaluate and demonstrate the technical feasibility of nearly zero energy buildings (nZEBs) in the Mediterranean urban contexts. To achieve this purpose, the energy performance (EP) of selected typical residential buildings in the urban Athens area have been investigated in detail, in order to properly identify the ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Chronobiology of Cancer: How Aging Fuels Oncogenesis at the Molecular Level
Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.This graphical abstract illustrates the key biological pathways linking aging with cancer development and progression. In the upper left, cumulative exposure to ultraviolet radiation, toxins, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) causes DNA damage and genomic instability, whereas age‐related decline in repair mechanisms, such as ATM/ATR, BER, and NER ...

How Vacancy of Dwellings Influences Energy Renovations of Multifamily Buildings
EnergiesThe European climate change mitigation agenda aims to decarbonise all buildings by 2050. However, many existing buildings may not remain operational by this time due to rapid urbanisation and population decline in various regions of Europe, potentially ...
