Abstract Utilization of industrial waste to produce geopolymer concrete is a good answer to minimize the carbon-dioxide( Co2) released from the traditional procedure of producing Ordinary Portland cement (OPC). This not ...

Interlocking concrete pavers (ICPs) require substantial cement consumption, resulting in considerable embodied carbon emissions, while the regional availability of conventional supplementary cementitious materials is bec...

Portland cement production is a major contributor to global CO2 emissions, and the scarcity of natural river sand limits conventional concrete production. Despite increasing interest in geopolymer concrete (GPC), studies...

Abstract Concrete production’s environmental impact has driven the use of supplementary cementitious materials like sawdust ash (SDA) and admixtures such as Conplast to enhance sustainability and performance. This stud...

In traditional historiography, the wartime context is often judged to have had a uniformly negative impact on medieval economies. While this assessment holds in many respects, it has overlooked the specific sector of arm...

Abstract Calcium aluminate cement (CAC) is a suitable source of tetrahedral aluminum, which reacts with tetrahedral silicon from water glass (aqueous sodium or potassium silicate solution) in an exothermic reaction, form...

ABSTRACT Wood-cement composite (WCC) is a potential construction material for tropical regions, due to its physico-mechanical properties and resistance to decay and fungi attack. However it is important to test alternati...

Background The myostatin gene has played an important role in the genetic improvement of the main species of economic importance; however, it has not yet been described for some Neotropical fish essential for aquaculture...

This study discusses some problematic issues around comparability and equivalence in empirical research, particularly focusing on the case of indicators and taking a cross-national study on linguistic skills and use of f...

Abstract We report a scalable and sustainable method for synthesizing graphene oxide (GO) via a non-thermal atmospheric nano-second pulsed plasma (NSPP) process, using methane as the carbon source and water as the substr...

Online child sexual exploitation and abuse (OCSEA) has developed as an important manifestation of transnational organized crime, constituting a systematic violation of children's fundamental rights under international la...

Is it possible to contribute carbon neutral by yeasts inhabiting in aquatic environments of our neighborhood? In COP26, held from October to November in 2021, various concrete attempts by participating countries were pro...

The rock-cut heritage of the Kayseri Valleys represents a distinctive vernacular tradition shaped by technological skill, social practices, and environmental adaptation. These systems, evolving from carved spaces to maso...

Prestressed concrete cylinder pipe (PCCP) is composed of concrete, steel cylinder, mortar and prestressed steel wire, which has been widely used in water conveyance and diversion projects. PCCP employs high-strength conc...
