Combinatorial optimization approach for the efficient reuse of RC components

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The reuse of reinforced concrete (RC) components from deconstructed buildings offers a promising approach to reduce the environmental impact of new constructions. However, it represents a complex combinatorial optimization problem to efficiently place the available modules, which vary in geometry and load‐bearing capacity, into new structures ...

2024: The year with too much summer in the eastern part of Europe

open access: yesWeather, EarlyView.
The summer of 2024 brought record‐breaking heatwaves to Eastern Europe, with Romania experiencing the brunt. Analysis of 140 years of data from Bucharest shows a significant increase in heatwave frequency and intensity, with 2024 setting new records. The third heatwave in 2024 was the most intense ever recorded.

A multi‐source remote sensing approach to identify and predict delayed succession in human‐dominated tropical landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
Our study challenges the view that fire prevention alone is sufficient for restoring degraded landscapes. We show successful natural regeneration hinges on nearby remnant woodlands acting as crucial seed sources. This research provides a remote sensing framework to quantify the risk of delayed succession where ecosystems fail to recover within a short ...

Craft in an age of creativity: disengagement as a new mode of craftsmanship among traditional potters in Japan

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Abstract Embedded within Japan's demographic and economic stagnation, traditional craftsmanship unexpectedly aligns with the discourse of creativity. This study delves into the intricacies of this convergence through ethnographic details, shedding light on how endeavours to preserve local crafts intertwine with the burgeoning discourse of creativity ...
