A F.E. UPPER BOUND LIMIT ANALYSIS MODEL FOR MASONRY CURVED AND 3D STRUCTURES, WITH AND WITHOUT FRPREINFORCEMENT [PDF]
, 2010 The aim of this thesis is to propose a new efficient numerical tool, based on the kinematic theorem of limit analysis, for the study of masonry shell and 3D structures with or without FRP reinforcement. The approach consists of two steps.

High‐strength composites by thiocracking of high‐polypropylene‐content mixed waste
Polymer International, EarlyView.Mixed plastic waste made up of polystyrene and polypropylene was reacted with elemental sulfur to give high‐strength composites. Abstract Mixed‐material municipal waste poses a persistent end‐of‐life management challenge because the heterogeneous composition limits efficient separation and recycling. After disposal, mixed‐material waste often fragments

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Social considerations are often overlooked in efforts to achieve sustainable development, despite being critical for building equitable and resilient global value chains. This study addresses this gap by applying a social life cycle assessment to three key Portuguese forest wood supply chains—uncoated woodfree paper, natural cork stoppers, and
