Oxygen Isotope Variations of Basaltic Lavas and Upper Mantle Rocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This chapter summarizes the oxygen isotope geochemistry of terrestrial basalts and their mantle sources, including the conceptual framework for interpreting such data and the phenomenology of known variations.

Sustainable Catalyst‐Free PLG Networks: Recyclability, Biodegradability, and Functional Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A catalyst‐additive free covalent adaptable network is developed from star‐shaped poly(lactide‐co‐glycolide) cross‐linked with pyromellitic dianhydride, enabling internal carboxylic acid‐driven transesterification. The resulting biodegradable network exhibits mechanical robustness (Young's modulus ≈1.6 GPa), complete recyclability, rapid biodegradation

Two‐Way Shape Memory Alloy and Polymer Composite Hybrid Smart Actuator With High Speed, Accuracy, and Reversible Deformation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Tailored thermo‐mechanical properties of shape memory polymer composites enable large reversible deformation as well as high actuation speed. Moreover, a structural design with curvature in the transverse direction achieves sub‐second actuation on heating and a larger recovery ratio on cooling. Finally, these newly developed smart two‐way actuators can

Compaction Characteristics and Mechanical Response of Gravel–Glass–Rubber Mixtures

open access: yesApplied Sciences
From a geotechnical engineering viewpoint, recycling and reuse of crushed glass and tire rubber can significantly help reduce the demand for natural resources (i.e., sand and gravel aggregates).

GENERATION OF RECYCLABLES BY RURAL HOUSEHOLDS [PDF]

open access: yes
Rising landfill costs have forced solid waste managers to consider ways to reduce the waste stream. Using survey data, models explaining the weight of recyclables generated by households are estimated for paper and glass. Results indicate that households

Novel Functional Materials via 3D Printing by Vat Photopolymerization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Perspective systematically analyzes strategies for incorporating functionalities into 3D‐printed materials via Vat Photopolymerization (VP). It explores the spectrum of achievable functionalities in recently reported novel materials—such as conductive, energy‐storing, biodegradable, stimuli‐responsive, self‐healing, shape‐memory, biomaterials, and

Life cycle assessment of soil stabilization using gypsum and recycled glass from end-of-life photovoltaic panels

open access: yesInternational Journal of Sustainable Energy
Due to the various negative environmental effects of soil stabilization techniques, such methods should be assessed for their suitability and desirability via life cycle assessment (LCA) techniques.
