Quantifying functional group compositions of household fuel-burning emissions

Globally, billions of people burn fuels indoors for cooking and heating, which contributes to millions of chronic illnesses and premature deaths annually. Additionally, residential burning contributes significantly to black carbon emissions, which have the ...

Biomechanical Properties and Resistance to Uprooting of Laboratory‐Scale Wood Logs

Paolo Perona

Wood dynamics affects riparian ecosystem functioning and river morphology. The spatial and temporal dynamics of wood pieces in river corridors, in particular of deposited rejuvenated wood logs, depend on their biomechanical properties and resistance to upr ...

Mitigation of Secondary Organic Aerosol Formation from Log Wood Burning Emissions by Catalytic Removal of Aromatic Hydrocarbons

Davide Ferri, Oliver Kröcher

Log wood burning is a significant source of volatile organic compounds including aromatic hydrocarbons (ArHC). ArHC are harmful, are reactive in the ambient atmosphere, and are important secondary organic aerosol (SOA) precursors. Consequently, SOA represe ...

Analysis of the vertical displacement of energy pile groups

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

Over the last fifty years, the interaction factor method has been widely used to address the vertical displacement and the increased deformation of conventional pile groups subjected to mechanical loads when group effects and interactions occur among the p ...

Effect of non-linear soil deformation on the interaction among energy piles

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria, Aurélien Vadrot

This study investigates the effect of non-linear soil deformation on the displacement interaction among energy piles. The work is based on interaction factor analyses of full-scale pile group tests, whose results are compared with experimental evidence. Th ...

The equivalent pier method for energy pile groups

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

This study presents a method for estimating the average vertical displacement of energy pile groups subjected to thermal loads. The method consists of replacing any regular energy pile group with a single equivalent pier of the same length and an equivalen ...

Analysis of thermally induced mechanical interactions in energy pile groups

Lyesse Laloui, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria

This study investigates the thermally induced mechanical interactions among closely spaced energy piles that partially operate as geothermal heat exchangers over a time-scale that is typical of practical applications. The analysis is based on the results o ...

The search for old-growth forests in Switzerland

Rita Bütler Sauvain

Old-growth forests and stands have multiple values, such as biological, scientific, socioeconomic, aesthetic, spiritual and cultural ones, but they are very rare in central Europe. Currently, an overview about the existence and size of old-growth forest pa ...
