The research relies on audience-fan inter
Theoretical investigations of Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) at in-plane shear loading conditions are presented with focus on shear failure mode III, relating to shear stresses acting in the crossing areas between orthogonally bonded laminations of different layers. Failure criteria for structural design, test configurations and material parameters are discussed. Full 3D finite element (FE) analyses

This study deals with the development of antifouling ultrafiltration membranes based on polysulfone (PSF) for wastewater treatment and the concentration and purification of hemicellulose and lignin in the pulp and paper industry. The efficient simple and reproducible technique of PSF membrane modification to increase antifouling performance by simultaneous addition of triblock copolymer polyethyle

The aim of this study is to explore the effects of fathers’ experience of parental leave on their attitudes towards existing gender roles and division. Many studies have claimed that fathers’ parental leave may hardly eradicate deep-rooted gender divisions between men and women, and fathers’ care-giving is a temporary phenomenon during their parental leave. However, this study demonstrates that ge
