Shaping by Internal Material Frustration: Shifting to Architectural Scale. [PDF]
Self‐shaping by material frustration is demonstrated for the first time at an architectural scale and in structural materials, typical of the construction field. Quantitative comparison with theoretical predictions, as well as scaling‐up and gravitation effect are presented.

Influence of preparation parameters on the properties of SiC abrasive stones and their applications
Abstract The preparation of highly efficient and low cost abrasive stones has gained considerable interest in the last few years from the industrial and academic research societies. Meanwhile, composition of such abrasive stones material has played a significant role on its physicochemical, mechanical properties and cost.

Characterising mine wastes as archaeological landscapes
Abstract Industrial‐scale metal mining has long been a feature of developing economies. Processing ores to recover minerals has generated large quantities of waste rock, tailings and contaminants. Mining‐related deposits, along with associated soil and water geochemistry, river modifications and other environmental changes, are a product of the nature,
