A Review Of Geopolymer Cement, From Two-Part Geopolymer To One-Part Geopolymer Cement And Its Geotechnical Applications, Khadhra Allali, Nabil Bella, Ilham Aguida Bella, Oussama Khodjet El Fehem, Maria Victoria Borrachero, Jordi Payá, José Monzó

Emirates Journal for Engineering Research

Abstract

Portland cement, a crucial construction material, has been used extensively in various geotechnical projects. However, its over-reliance has led to environmental concerns, particularly regarding carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions during its production. Sustainable development involves the development of cement alternatives that are less damaging to the environment. Geopolymer cement can be a potential partial replacement for conventional Portland cement that can minimize carbon dioxide emissions and convert various by-products into useful products. Traditional geopolymer cement is composed of two components: an alkaline activator solution and a solid aluminosilicate precursor (other than water), and its production requires the manipulation …

The Shelburne Line Allowed Up To 200 Airmen To Get Back To England To Fly Against Nazi Germany, Kellian Clink

Library Services Publications

The Shelburne Line, facilitated by Military Intelligence, Section 9, was something like the American Underground Railroad, but in this case, it was developed during the waning days of World War II to help evading or escaping aircrew to get back to fly against the Nazis. Wherever the airmen went down, they were first housed in Paris, then were accompanied to a small town in Brittany, where a BBC announcement would alert the helpers to start conducting the airmen to “la maison d’Alphonse” atop a Nazi patrolled promontory. From that house, they would have to descend a steep cliff, wait anxiously …
