Engineered wood products for circular construction: a multi-factor evaluation of lamination methods by Dan Bergsagel, Felix Heisel, Jasper Owen, Maxwell Rodencal

“…The research focuses on EWP beam elements following three sequential studies: (1) an evaluation of interlocking surface patterns to improve non-adhesive lamination in two stages, interlocking pattern shapes (17 samples) and interlocking depths (24 samples); (2) an evaluation of structural performance of different lamination methods in bending (glue (GL), metal nails (MN), wood nails (WN), plastic straps (PS)) for a 4.5 ft two-layer beam formed of 2 × 4 lumber feedstock (using a 1/16in deep square grooved pattern and flat interface for reference (five samples each)), whereby the grooved interlocking samples with mechanical fasteners performed considerably well in both modulus of rupture (MOR) and modulus of elasticity (MOE) compared to the reference flat adhesive lamination method, 31% and 19% lower, respectively; and (3) a comparison of qualitative and quantitative parameters on structure, economy, environment and circularity. …”

How Arabidopsis Receptor-Like Kinase 7 (RLK7) Manifests: Delineating Its Structure and Function by Ramen Chowdhury, M. H. M. Mubassir

“…Interestingly, this distinctive receptor-like kinase not only orchestrates crucial steps during plant development, including the regulation of seed longevity, dormancy, and seed germination speed, but also plays a role in oxidative stress tolerance, salt stress tolerance, and pattern-triggered immunity. This review deciphers the sequence and structure and evaluates existing knowledge of the function and expression pattern of RLK7.…”
