Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.Open‐Graded Friction Course (OGFC) mixtures for flexible pavements. ABSTRACT Open‐Graded Friction Course (OGFC) mixtures in flexible pavements are known for their efficient drainage characteristics, but concerns exist regarding their structural weaknesses and short lifespans. This study investigates methods to improve the mechanical performance of OGFC

Pulmonary Disease amongst Sisal Workers [PDF]
Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 1958 The sisal industry is economically one of the most important in Kenya as it employs about 8,000 Africans who are engaged on work in 69 sisal plantations in the Colony. This corresponds to about 2 % of the total number of Africans employed in all public services, agricultural, and other indus tries.

Delignification Pathways for the Engineering of Nanostructured Wood
Small Structures, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.Delignification severity in wood is determined by experimental parameters that control the removal of noncellulosic components, thereby shaping the resulting chemistry and microstructure. Although delignification is crucial for engineered wood fabrication, quantitative guidelines spanning different chemistries and processes are lacking.
