Effect of microwave heating damage on the electrical, thermal and mechanical properties of fibre-reinforced cement mortars
Borinaga Treviño, Roque ; Orbe Mateo, Aimar; Norambuena Contreras, J.; Canales Abaitua, Javier (Elsevier, 2018)Nowadays, refurbishing of existing structures has gained interest in order to reduce both the construction materials used and the construction and demolition waste production. For that purpose, there are several methods ... -
Ensuring a just energy transition: A distributional analysis of diesel tax reform in Spain with stakeholder engagement
Tomás, M.; García-Muros, X.; Alonso-Epelde, E.; Arto, I.; Rodríguez-Zúñiga, A.; Monge, C.; González-Eguino, M (Energy Policy, 2023)Despite the consensus that green taxation is an effective way to accelerate the decarbonization of economies, few countries are implementing ambitious tax reforms. This is the case of diesel for transport in Spain. The ... -
