The goal of this investigation is to characterize the mortar from the ancient city wall of
Xindeng in Fuyang, Hangzhou (China), which reveals a history of nearly 1800 years …

A concise general equation is difficult to reflect the relationship between physical properties
of conductive materials and properties of conductive mortar (CM). To handle this issue, a …

Mortar is an artificial material, commonly used since ancient times and widely conserved, in
many cases in good conditions, to the present day. In this study, mortars from different …

Raman microprobe spectroscopy and μX-ray fluorescence were used to analyse the original
composition and degradation products of the limestone and the sandstones from the …

An artificial neural network (ANN) for archaeometric studies was created to facilitate
provenance attribution of archaeological ceramics. A multilayer perceptron model (MLP) …

The paper describes a study on the mortars of the basilica of San Lorenzo in Milan, which
was carried out to support an archaeological study aimed at dating and documenting the …

The performance of fabric with lime mortar (LM) as the cementitious matrix was investigated
for the strengthening of lime masonry wallettes, which were compared with the respective …

This review covers a relatively mature area of atomic spectrometry, hence there are fewer
new developments than in newer research fields. It should be read in conjunction with the …

Lime–diatomaceous earth cement pastes were fabricated at room temperature starting with
a mixture of diatomaceous earth (DE), lime, and water. The cementing phase, associated …

This paper relates the study of the bond mechanism between lime mortars and glazed tiles.
These materials were sampled from facades in Ovar-Portugal, which had been clad in the …
