1. Towards a Sustainable 3D-Concrete-Printed Architecture: Assemblies, Detailing and Ornamentation 

   Anton, Ana; Dillenburger, Benjamin (2024)

   ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN

   Given the long history of columns in the languages and lexicons of architecture, they are the ideal building elements with which to experiment in the pursuit of 3D-printed concrete. Ana Anton and Benjamin Dillenburger of the Chair for Digital Building Technologies at ETH Zurich reveal how new technologies can produce sinuous filigree structures that are unachievable with conventional casting approaches, and also offer more advantages.

2. CXL and the Return of Scale-Up Database Engines 

   Lerner, Alberto; Alonso, Gustavo (2024)

   Proceedings of the VLDB Endowment

   The trend toward specialized processing devices such as TPUs, DPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs has exposed the weaknesses of PCIe in interconnecting these devices and their hosts. Several attempts have been proposed to improve, augment, or downright replace PCIe, and more recently, these efforts have converged into a standard called Compute Express Link (CXL). CXL is already on version 2.0 in terms of commercial availability, but its potential to ...

4. Deep CO₂ release and the carbon budget of the central Apennines modulated by geodynamics 

   Erlanger, Erica; Bufe, Aaron; Paris, Guillaume; et al. (2024)

   Nature Geoscience

   Recent studies increasingly recognize the importance of critical-zone weathering during mountain building for long-term CO2 drawdown and release. However, the focus on near-surface weathering reactions commonly does not account for CO2 emissions from the crust, which could outstrip CO2 drawdown where carbonates melt and decarbonize during subduction and metamorphism. We analyse water chemistry from streams in Italy's central Apennines ...

5. Crustal carbonate build-up as a driver for Earth's oxygenation 

   Alcott, Lewis J.; Walton, Craig; Planavsky, Noah J.; et al. (2024)

   Nature Geoscience

   Oxygenation of Earth's atmosphere and oceans played a pivotal role in the evolution of the surface environment and life. It is thought that the rise in oxygen over Earth's history was driven by an increasing availability of the photosynthetic limiting nutrient phosphate combined with declining oxygen-consuming inputs from the mantle and crust. However, it has been difficult to assess whether these processes alone can explain Earth's ...
