Structural Silicone Glazing: Life Expectancy of more than 50 Years?
, 2017 Structural Silicone Glazing (SSG) is a curtain walling method that utilizes silicone sealants to adhere glass, ceramic, metal or composite panels to supporting framing members by means of a peripheral adhesive joint.

Improving the dynamic response of multi-storey buildings via protective glazing curtain walls
, 2018 Glazing facades are widely used in building structures, due to a series of aesthetic, thermal, lightening aspects. From a structural point of view, under the action of exceptional loads as impacts, explosions, seismic events or hazards in general, the ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Temporal scaling physiology differs significantly between mice and humans. Mice have higher metabolism, heart and respiratory rate, as well as faster blood flow rates, brain activity and physiological dynamics over time. These differences influence the temporal resolution needed in preclinical imaging of mouse models to ...

Low‐Temperature Experimental Characterization of Magnetite‐Based Rock‐Bed Thermal Battery
Energy Storage, Volume 8, Issue 8, December 2026.The graphical abstract illustrates the proposed low‐temperature magnetite‐based rock‐bed thermal energy storage (RTES) concept for greenhouse applications and the corresponding experimental configuration. During charging, thermal energy is transferred from solar collectors to the RTES and is stored as sensible heat. During discharge, the stored heat is

Study of Damage to Shutters Exposed to a Vegetation Fire: Definition of Vulnerability Thresholds
Fire and Materials, Volume 50, Issue 8, Page 941-954, December 2026.ABSTRACT This study examines the fire behavior of wooden, PVC, and aluminum shutters through laboratory and large‐scale experiments. Laboratory tests were conducted using a cone calorimeter to assess the ignitability of the PVC and wooden shutters, focusing on the critical heat flux of ignition, ignition time and critical Flux Time Product ( FTP ...

Analytic Philosophy, Volume 67, Issue 4, Page 354-365, December 2026.ABSTRACT Laws play some role in explanations: at the very least, they somehow connect what is explained, or the explanandum, to what explains, or the explanans. Thus, thermodynamical laws connect the match's being struck and its lightning, so that the former causes the latter; and laws about set formation connect Socrates' existence with {Socrates}'s ...
