Canada-US Softwood Lumber Trade Revisited: Examining the Role of Substitution Bias in the Context of a Spatial Price Equilibrium Framework [PDF]
In the last two decades, softwood lumber trade between Canada and the United States has been characterized by numerous trade restrictions. Many studies have attempted to quantify the effects of such sanctions, and in doing so, softwood lumber was modeled

Free‐Standing Lignin‐Derived Hard Carbon Anodes for Sustainable Potassium‐Ion Batteries
Industrial lignin is transformed into free‐standing hard carbon nanofiber mats that function directly as binder‐ and conductive‐additive‐free anodes for potassium‐ion batteries. The optimized carbon architecture enables efficient K+ storage and electron transport, delivering high reversible capacity, robust rate performance, and 85% capacity retention ...

FRP-to-Softwood Joints: Experimental Investigation [PDF]
A proper understanding of the interfacial behaviour between timber and bonded fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites will assist in the rational and optimal design of FRP strengthening works for timber structures. To enhance this understanding, a series of single-lap FRP-to-timber joint shear tests are reported herein in which the strength of the ...

Abstract Improving soil health under variable water regimes remains a challenge in coarse‐textured soils. We evaluated short‐term soil health responses to fertilizer source (beef manure vs. inorganic N) with or without surface wood‐chip mulch during two contrasting growing seasons (2022–2023) in adjacent rainfed and irrigated no‐till sandy loam corn ...
