Perceived importance and didactic difficulty of chemistry education: Insights from Czech teachers

The Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This empirical study examines how chemistry teachers in lower and upper secondary schools in the Czech Republic evaluate the content of the chemistry curriculum, focussing on its perceived importance and didactic difficulty. Based on a quantitative survey (N = 146), the study provides insight into the pedagogical content knowledge of ...

Enhancing Functional Properties and Mold Resistance of Gypsum Plasters with Caffeine

Buildings
Caffeine is a proven bioactive substance against fungi for internal use, without any observed negative effects on properties of wood materials. However, its addition to other building materials for internal use has not yet been tested.

Influence of the Boundary Conditions on the Seismic Response of Existing Masonry Infills From In‐Plane and Dynamic Out‐of‐Plane Tests

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite increasing attention to the seismic performance of masonry infills, their out‐of‐plane dynamic behaviour remains insufficiently explored, particularly under pre‐existing in‐plane damage. This study presents a comprehensive experimental campaign designed to investigate the seismic behaviour of an existing weak masonry infill typology ...

Comparative study of moisture absorption and resistance to NaCl salt of clay-based plasters incorporating porous aggregate [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences
This study deals with the effects of expanded perlite and two types of clay (bentonite and kaolin) on adsorption behaviour of lightweight clay-cement based plasters and their resistance to the destructive impact of NaCl salt solution.

Whole‐House Thermal Bridge Modelling for Accurate Retrofit Energy Prediction

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study models thermal bridging in a UK semi‐detached house across pre‐ and post‐retrofit scenarios using piecemeal and whole‐house approaches with EWI and IWI. Whole‐house retrofits reduce heat transfer coefficient by 60%; findings demonstrate that default values are often unrepresentative and advocate tailored Ψ value databases.

Fire Spread Characteristics of Cavities in Modular Constructions and Ventilated Facades

Fire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modular buildings have gained popularity as a sustainable building solution. However, the uncertainty of fire spread through vertical cavity spaces in such buildings has become a concern. Therefore, this study aims to fill the gap in fire behaviour within vertical cavity spaces.

Phenotypic and Genotypic Analysis of Two Rare Cases of ‐‐SEA/‐α4.3 HbH Disease

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
We report two unrelated adult patients with rare deletional HbH disease (genotype ‐‐SEA/‐α4.3). This novel 4.3 kb deletion covering the HBA1 gene is accompanied by X‐Y‐Z segment recombination, which was identified by CycloneSEQ long‐read nanopore sequencing.
