title: "Agricultural Waste in Precast Concrete Walls to Structural Characterization and Thermal Efficiency: A dataset Development"

description: "The current study investigates the structural behavior of Prefabricated Composite Sandwich Panels (PCSPs) designed with alternative and sustainable core materials. Three types of core materials were considered: Extruded Polystyrene (XPS), Expanded Polystyrene (EPS), and Agro-Waste, each combined with cementitious skins made from two grades of concrete, M25 and M40. The primary objective was to evaluate how these combinations influence compressive and flexural strength, while also exploring their potential for sustainable construction practices. The PCSP panels were manufactured in thicknesses ranging from 10 mm to 50 mm and were subjected to standard compressive and flexural strength testing. The results revealed that the strength of the panels depended strongly on the grade of concrete used in the skins. Panels incorporating M40 grade concrete consistently demonstrated higher compressive strength compared with those made with M25 grade concrete, indicating the importance of higher quality concrete in enhancing mechanical performance.Among the three core materials, Agro-Waste emerged as a promising substitute. For example, panels with an Agro-Waste core and M40 concrete skins achieved compressive strengths of 38.89 MPa at a thickness of 10 mm, while the same core paired with M25 concrete attained 27.06 MPa. This performance highlights the significant improvement achieved by upgrading the concrete grade. The findings also suggest that Agro-Waste, when used as a lightweight filler material, can match or even surpass synthetic options such as XPS and EPS under similar conditions. The investigation supports the use of Agro-Waste as a viable and eco-friendly core material in prefabricated panel production. The panels not only deliver competitive mechanical properties but also promote sustainability by reducing reliance on synthetic, non-biodegradable materials. Such panels can be integrated into modular construction systems, helping reduce environmental impact while maintaining structural reliability. The dataset and results provide valuable benchmarks for further research into sustainable sandwich panel design. By offering a balance between strength, durability, and eco-friendliness, Agro-Waste based PCSPs hold strong potential for scalable use in modern building practices where prefabrication and green construction methods are increasingly emphasized.

title: Bethe ridge electron Compton spectroscopy [dataset]

description: Data files are in DM3 format and can be opened using Gatan Digital Micrograph proprietary software or ImageJ freeware.
description: Compton spectroscopy measures J(pz), the density of occupied electronic states with momentum component pz. In a transmission electron microscope (TEM) Compton spectroscopy is performed by acquiring a momentum resolved, dark-field electron energy loss spectrum (EELS). Here it is shown that the Bethe ridge in a single energy filtered diffraction pattern can provide identical J(pz) information. The energy filtered TEM (EFTEM) approach is more dose efficient, since all (projected) momenta pz are recorded in parallel. For weakly diffracting specimens, the J(pz) profiles extracted using EFTEM are in reasonable agreement with dark-field EELS. Bragg diffraction and thermal diffuse scattering are known to introduce artefacts in Compton spectroscopy, and this is true for the EFTEM method as well. The artefacts can however be mitigated by analysing suitably thin specimens.

title: Forensic taphonomy, porcine analogues, and stable isotopes: changes in pig skin and muscle <i>δ</i><sup>13</sup>C & <i>δ</i><sup>15</sup>N during the early post-mortem interval in Atlantic Canada

description: This study aimed to provide preliminary regionally-specific taphonomic data in Atlantic Canada using porcine analogues. Six adult porcine analogues were left outdoors to decompose naturally in late summer, sampled every three days to measure <i>δ</i><sup>13</sup>C and <i>δ</i><sup>15</sup>N in both skin and muscle over a total of twelve days. Over the course of the study, as porcine analogues transitioned through the fresh, bloat, and active decay stages of decomposition, <i>δ</i><sup>15</sup>N<sub>muscle</sub> became enriched from a mean starting value of 4.1‰, first detectable at day-6 in the bloat phase by a mean change of ∼0.5‰. No such enrichments were found in <i>δ</i><sup>15</sup>N<sub>skin</sub>, <i>δ</i><sup>13</sup>C<sub>skin</sub>, or <i>δ</i><sup>13</sup>C<sub>muscle</sub>. This snapshot-in-time study provides important preliminary evidence that porcine muscle tissues become enriched in <i>δ</i><sup>15</sup>N as decomposition progresses and is detectable in the very early post-mortem interval. Future research can expand these findings to further elucidate the potential of stable isotopes as a quantifier of post-mortem interval in humans, and further taphonomic research in the under-studied region of Atlantic Canada.
