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 ...

The Many Dimensions of Softwood Lumber
The Softwood Lumber dispute between Canada and the United States is one of the longest and most expensive trade disputes in history. However, the Softwood Lumber dispute has been, if not misunderstood, at least underappreciated.

Low‐cost lignin was upgraded in an acidic lithium bromide (LiBr) solution via integrated depolymerization, demethylation, and phenolation to yield bioactive polyphenols with enhanced phenolic hydroxyl content. The resulting polyphenols exhibited strong antioxidant and antibacterial activities, along with low cytotoxicity and promising in vivo ...
