Nanomaterial-inspired building materials, especially those involving both concrete and carbon-based nanomaterials, have gathered a lot of interest recently. Even over the course of the last year, the ...

A thermal metasurface is made of a single layer of nanostructured silicon (gray) on top of glass (blue) and a metal mirror (gold). The nanostructured surface is specifically tailored so that it ...

Control of heat flow is crucial for thermal logic devices and thermal management, with theoretical exploration preceding limited experimental progress in actively controlling heat flow. The device ...

Concrete volume changes due to changes in moisture and temperature. As concrete dries, it shrinks. Length change related to drying shrinkage for unreinforced concrete can range up to 0.08% whereas ...
