Empirical study on the sound insulation of wooden lightweight frame floors [PDF]
Lightweight frame structures become increasingly popular in housing. They are used in single-, as well as multifamily, residential buildings. Such a tendency is in the line with sustainable development and the need for energy conservation.

Earth abundant spinel for hydrogen production in a chemical looping scheme at 550 °C
Operating chemical looping process at mid-temperatures (550–750 °C) presents exciting potential for the stable production of hydrogen. However, the reactivity of oxygen carriers is compromised by the detrimental effect of the relatively low temperatures ...

Insects in Fluctuating Thermal Environments
All climate change scenarios predict an increase in both global temperature means and the magnitude of seasonal and diel temperature variation. The nonlinear relationship between temperature and biological processes means that fluctuating temperatures lead to physiological, life history, and ecological consequences for ectothermic insects that diverge
