Multi-scale analysis on thermal properties of cement-based materials containing micro-encapsulated phase change materials
The incorporation of phase change materials (PCMs) in building envelopes for passive thermal storage can enhance the thermal mass effect and thereby reduce energy consumption. In this investigation,...
Effects of concrete waste on characteristics of structural fired clay bricks
This study focuses on evaluation of concrete waste in the production of fired clay brick. Ground concrete waste powder was replaced with the clay up to 15% by weight. Samples were shaped in the form...

Numerical analysis of phase change materials/wood–plastic composite roof module system for improving thermal performance
Using phase change materials (PCMs) to store and release latent heat is one of the most efficient and reliable ways to reduce energy consumption. In this study, a PCM/wood–plastic composite (WPC)...
Perhydropolysilazane derived SiON interfacial layer for Cu-epoxy molding compound composite
The interface of Cu/epoxy molding compound composite (Cu/EMC) faces threats from water and ionic compounds, which can induce the delamination of the Cu/EMC, and thus, affect the reliability of the...
Synergetic Effect of Micro-bamboo Filler and Graphene Nanoplatelets on Thermomechanical Properties of Epoxy-Based Hybrid Composite
A hybrid composite material is comprised of two or more substantially different materials whose fusion generates combined features which are different from those of its individual constituents. In...
Bio-Composites Reinforced with Natural Fibers: Comparative Analysis of Thermal, Static and Dynamic-Mechanical Properties
In the present study, flax, jute and glass woven fabric samples were developed as reinforcement for composites with bio-epoxy resin. Flax fabrics were developed with plain weave, twill weave...
Fabrication of silicon on insulator wafer with silicon carbide insulator layer by surface-activated bonding at room temperature
We propose a process for the fabrication of a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer with a silicon carbide (SiC) insulator layer by combining plasmaenhanced chemical vapor deposition and surface-activated...
