PISA: New Design Methods for Offshore Wind Turbine Monopiles
(2017)Improved design of laterally loaded monopiles is central to the development of current and future generation offshore wind farms. Previously established design methods have demonstrable shortcomings requiring new ideas and ... -
Planning by Cycle Parking Type: A Cycle Parking Preference Typology for Cyclists
(2022)The purpose of this study is to develop a typology of cycle parking type preferences among a sample who have access to a cycle and travel within or to the electoral county of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, Ireland. Valid online ... -
Plasmonic Interaction in Enhanced Luminescent Down-Shifting Layers for Photovoltaic Devices
(Nova Science Publishers, 2017)Harvesting solar energy has the potential to reduce carbon emissions and to provide clean energy contributing to sustainable development. Most photovoltaic (PV) research to date has focused on achieving higher PV conversion ... -
Post Covid-19 water and waste water management to protect public health and geoenvironment
(2021)The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has posed severe threats to humans and the geoenvironment. The findings of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (Sars-CoV-2) traces in waste water and the practice of ... -
Potential of a low-calcium fly ash (FA) for the production of alkali-activated materials
(2020)Coal-FA from power stations is an industrial waste abundantly produced in the world. FA can be used asa silicate precursor, and activated with an alkali-metal source to produce alkali-activated materials (AAMs).AAMs are ... -

Potential of spent fluid cracking catalyst (FCC) waste for low-carbon cement production
(2023)Spent fluid cracking catalyst (FCC) waste is produced to convert petroleum crude oil into gasoline, and its main component is a reactive zeolite known as faujasite. This paper studies low-energy treatments to enhance ... -
Poverty and transport in the Global South: An Overview
(2019)The primary objective of the United Nations Development Programme to 2030 is to lift more than 736 million people out of extreme poverty (UN, 2019). In this sense, this paper addresses the potential contributions of transport ... -
Pozzolanic and Cementing Activity of Raw and Pyro-Processed Saudi Arabian Red Mud (RM) Waste
(2021)This paper investigates the composition, properties and reactivity of a red mud waste generated in Saudi Arabia with a view to find alternative materials to replace construction binders of high environmental impact. The ... -
Pozzolanic and hydraulic activity of bauxite for binder production
(2022)Bauxite is mainly used to produce aluminium and calcium aluminate cements. Both applications carry high environmental impacts. However, the carbon emissions generated from mining bauxite (3–5 kg CO2e/t) are negligible when ... -
Pre and post Covid preferences for working from home
(2024)Working from home (WFH) is being seen as a potential solution to many contemporary problems from congestion to global warming and work-life balance. Since the 1970 s, it was assumed that when information technology ... -
Predicting the Compactability of Artificially Cemented Fine‑Grained Soils Blended with Waste‑Tire‑Derived Aggregates
(2023)This study investigates the possibility of extending the specific gravity ratio (SGR) modeling framework, originally developed for predicting the compaction properties of unamended fine-grained soils (with no binder) ...
