Journal Article
Xiu, Z., Wang, S., Ji, Y., Wang, F., Ren, F., & Nguyen, V. (2021). The effects of dry and wet rock surfaces on shear behavior of the interface between rock and cemented paste backfill. Powder Technology, 381, 324-337. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.powtec.2020.11.053

Cemented Paste Backfill (CPB) technology has been effective in using the tailings to refill the underground cavities. The wet or dry rock surface can significantly affect the stability of the CPB-Rock interface, and the shear load-bearing capacity of...

Loading rate effect on the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) behavior of cemented paste backfill (CPB) (2020)
Journal Article
Xiu, Z., Wang, S., Ji, Y., Wang, F., Ren, F., & Nguyen, V. (2021). Loading rate effect on the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) behavior of cemented paste backfill (CPB). Construction and Building Materials, 271, 121526. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2020.121526

Underground mined-out areas and tailings are the two major harmful consequences from metal mining industry. Cemented Paste Backfill (CPB) method, refilling the tailings back to the underground mined-out areas, has been widely used worldwide. Clear un...

Urban cooling : which façade orientation has the most impact on a microclimate? (2020)
Journal Article
Taleghani, M., Swan, W., Johansson, E., & Ji, Y. (2021). Urban cooling : which façade orientation has the most impact on a microclimate?. Sustainable Cities and Society, 64, 102547. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scs.2020.102547

Deploying solar reflective materials on urban surfaces is known as an effective heat mitigation strategy. Several studies have shown their cooling impacts; however, most of them have focused on rooftops rather than facades. The novelty of this paper...
