A dynamic approach to urban road deposited sediment pollution monitoring (Marylebone Road, London, UK) (2014)
Journal Article
The use of mineral magnetic measurements (χLF, χARM and SIRM) as a potential pollution proxy using road deposited sediment (RDS) is explored as an alternative means of monitoring pollution on a busy city road. Comparison of sediment-related analytica... Read More about A dynamic approach to urban road deposited sediment pollution monitoring (Marylebone Road, London, UK).
Potential linkages between mineral magnetic measurements and urban roadside soil pollution (part 2) (2014)
Journal Article
Use of mineral magnetic concentration parameters (χLF, χARM and SIRM) as a potential pollution proxy for soil samples collected from Wolverhampton (UK) is explored. Comparison of soil-related analytical data by correlation analyses between each magne...

Elastic properties of thermo-hydro-mechanically modified bamboo (Guadua angustifolia Kunth) measured in tension. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Guadua angustifolia Kunth (Guadua) was subjected to thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) treatments that modified its microstructure and mechanical properties. THM treatment was applied to Guadua with the aim of tackling the difficulties in the fabrication...

Towards improved guidelines for drying flood-damaged buildings (2014)
Journal Article
In the aftermath of flood events in the UK, the insurance and the drying and repair industry are frequently criticised for the speed with which households are able to return to their homes. Delays in restoration have been attributed to lack of guidan... Read More about Towards improved guidelines for drying flood-damaged buildings.
