Development of novel building composites based on hemp and multi-functional silica matrix
Atif Hussain, Juliana Calabria-Holley, Mike Lawrence, Martin P. Ansell, Yunhong Jiang, Diane Schorr, Pierre Blanchet
Jan 01, 2019
This study focuses on the development of novel bio-composites using a silica matrix that provides dual functionality: as a hydrophobic surface treatment and as a binder for hemp-shiv. The hydrophilic nature of hemp shiv, a...
Communicating risk in primary care
In 2014, the National Institute for Health Care Excellence (NICE) changed its guidelines for offering statins to patients, reducing the threshold from 20% cardiovascular risk to 10%.1 This ignited a fervent debate about the...
A Structural Break Approach to Analysing the Impact of the QE Portfolio Balance Channel on the US Stock Market
Following the 1929 Wall Street collapse, the initial response to the institutional failures and collapsing financial system was to allow the markets to self-correct, which led to a significant period of economic depression. In...
