The use of glass waste in the construction industry has a high potential of leading to a higher recycling percentage. Foam glass aggregate (FGA) is around 98% recycled glass waste of various origins and has good insulation properties with big grain size ...

Among the honeybee subspecies, Polish beekeepers most commonly rear three of them, i.e., Apis mellifera carnica, A. m. mellifera and A. m. caucasica. They differ in morphological and physiological features. Our goal was to find a linkage between their th...

At cryogenic temperatures, gases exhibit significant deviations from ideal behaviour, and the commonly employed gas model may inadequately represent the thermodynamic properties of cryogenic gases, subsequently impacting numerical simulations using vario...

Due to their genesis, volcanic rocks present some singularities that make their geotechnical characteristics significantly different from other more common types of massifs, such as sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. The formation mechanisms of volcanic ...

The cooling jackets of liquid rocket engines are composed of narrow passages surrounding the thrust chambers and ensure the reliable operation of the engine. Critical conditions may also be encountered, since the cooling jackets of cryogenic engines, suc...

In situ measurement can enable accurate evaluation of a building?s as-built performance. However, when measuring whole house performance, party walls introduce measurement uncertainty. Subsequently, it is common to ?adjust? measurements to isolate heat t...

Buckle-initiation techniques, such as sleepers, are usually installed to trigger lateral buckling at pre-designated locations to release the axial compressive forces induced by thermal loading. Taking the nonlinear pipe?soil interaction model into accoun...
