Posterolateral corner reconstruction using hamstrings grafts—A comparative biomechanical study of three techniques

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare three posterolateral corner (PLC) reconstruction techniques—the popliteofibular loop (PFLoop), the modified LaPrade (LP) and modified Arciero (AR) techniques—in restoring knee laxity in varus (VR), external tibial rotation (ER) and posterior tibial translation (PTT). Methods Nine cadaveric knees were subjected to 8Nm VR, 5Nm

Mechanical and Dielectric Properties of Epoxy Resin Composites Filled With Whole‐Panel Waste From First and Second Generation End‐of‐Life Photovoltaic Panels

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
End‐of‐life photovoltaic (PV) panels are reduced into fine particles and incorporated into epoxy composites, enabling sustainable energy‐storage materials with enhanced dielectric performance. The resulting composites achieve up to 25% increased energy storage capacity at 30°C and up to 45× improvement at elevated temperatures, promoting low‐cost ...

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

Leveraging Life Cycle Assessment for Informing Packaging Eco‐Design and Eco‐Modulation

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eco‐modulation is designed to promote the adoption of eco‐design. However, in practice, its application is mostly concentrated on end‐of‐life (EoL) optimization. This study addresses the gap by proposing a framework to assess product–packaging systems as integrated units throughout the full life cycle.

Investigating the Environmental Impact of Additive Construction: A Systematic Analysis of the Life Cycle Assessment Studies

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been identified as a potential catalyst for a paradigm shift within the construction industry, due to its capacity to enhance sustainability, reduce waste, and augment design flexibility. This study presents a systematic literature review (SLR) that explores the application of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in ...

Characteristics of Ferrite-Rich Portland Cement: Comparison With Ordinary Portland Cement

Frontiers in Materials, 2019
The cement industry is an energy-intensive industry, and improving the energy efficiency of cement has become necessary to reduce its carbon footprint and to compete in the global market. Clinker production consumes more than 90% of the total energy used

The Role of Awareness in Sustainable Construction Materials Uptake in Developing Economies: Evidence From Nigeria

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sustainable Construction Materials (SCM) are crucial for reducing lifecycle emissions in the built environment, yet their adoption remains limited in many developing economies, such as Nigeria. This study investigates how awareness influences the adoption of SCM among professionals in Nigeria's Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC)

Effects on Setting, Strength, Moisture Resistance and Linear Changes of Sorel’s Cement on Mixing Portland Cement as an Additive

E-Journal of Chemistry, 2009
Magnesium oxysulphate cement (MOC, Magnesia / Sorel’s Cement), discovered by Sorel S.T. in 1867 and has versatile cementing characteristics. It is prepared by the reaction of magnesium sulphate with magnesia in aqueous solution.
