Boosting building renovation is urgently needed to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. Building retrofit can be achieved energy-efficient measures such as thermal insulation or replacement of a fossil heating system. Currently, conventional materials that are mostly used for envelope raising the risk lock-in situation where mitigate climate change actually contributing it. Bio-based promising al...

Abstract Purpose With a contribution of 39% to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, reducing the environmental impacts buildings plays an undisputed role in achieving climate goals. Therefore, development projects with low carbon footprint is crucial importance. Although several active and passive solutions as well design strategies have been developed, identifying critical levers minimise GHG emiss...

For economic evaluation of a highway development project, multiple criteria must be considered on a timeframe longer than the project implementation interval and a geographical area larger than the project zone. In this study, a framework is proposed based on the Network-Level Life Cycle Cost Analysis (NL-LCCA) to assess the effect of highway development projects on mobility, safety, economy, e...

This study aims to evaluate economic and environmental benefits of porous pavement surface using life-cycle cost analysis (LCCA) and life-cycle assessment (LCA). The research will focus on application of porous surface for sidewalk. The life-cycle inventory data were collected from literature search, online database, and project records. The comparison study was conducted between pervious pavin...

Pentobarbital anesthetized dogs were subjected to 90 minutes of left circumflex coronary artery (LCCA) occlusion followed by 72 hours of reperfusion. Control or anti-Mol (904) F(ab')2 fragments of monoclonal antibodies were administered intravenously at a dose of 1 mg/kg beginning 45 minutes after occlusion and at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg at 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours after reperfusion. Myocardial inf...
