European Cities Can Contribute to Climate Change Mitigation by Changing Urban Albedo (2013)
Working Paper
Susca, T., & Creutzig, F. European Cities Can Contribute to Climate Change Mitigation by Changing Urban Albedo

The IPCC Working Group I Fourth Assessment Report found that since pre-industrial times until 2005, Land Use and Land Cover Change (LULCC) led to an increase in Earth´s albedo mainly due to the deforestation and the modification of land for agricultu...

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) is about the mechanical strength and stability of a structure. The methods used to reveal and quantify the structure quality could be different in nature. Strain change is, however, the common structural parameter i... Read More about Condition monitoring of the strength and stability of civil structures using thick film ceramic sensors.

Electromagnetic modeling of ellipsoidal nanoparticles for sensing applications (2013)
Journal Article
