探 = In search of harmony by Ng, Woon Lam

“…The first method is transparent glazing, which is commonly used in watercolor. In oil painting, the glazing method is further classified into transparent and semi-transparent (Velatura) layers, both of which fully enriches the spectrum of tonal and hue variations. …”

Smart window for tuning transparency and noise absorption by Shrestha, Milan

“…As parts of the high-rise-building facades, smart windows could mitigate the sound-and-light pollutions by replacing the conventional glass glazing and curtains. Existing solutions of smart windows are imperfect and costly for simultaneous control of light transmission and sound absorption. …”

Active control of broadband sound through the open aperture of a full-sized domestic window by Lam, Bhan, Shi, Dongyuan, Gan, Woon-Seng, Elliott, Stephen J., Nishimura, Masaharu

“…A numerical analysis revealed that the maximum active attenuation potential outperforms the perfect acoustic insulation provided by a fully shut single-glazed window in ideal conditions. To determine the real-world performance of such an active control system, an experimental system is realized in the aperture of a full-sized window installed on a mockup room. …”

Nitrogen-decorated carbon dots (NCDs) for thermally conductive smart windows by Tan, Frankie Ting Feng

“…This approach is able to provide energy efficient solutions to modern skyscrapers by maintaining a cool temperature without bearing the cost and weight of double or triple glazed glass paned windows. In this research, the thermally conductive thin film was created through carbon dots (CDs) which possess a high thermal conductive property. …”

Pan-European atmospheric lead pollution, enhanced blood lead levels, and cognitive decline from Roman-era mining and smelting by McConnell, JR, Chellman, N, Plach, A, Wensman, SM, Plunkett, G, Stohl, A, Smith, N, Vinther, BM, Dahl-Jensen, D, Steffensen, JP, Fritzsche, D, Brugger, SO, McDonald, BT, Wilson, AI

“…Although lead exposure routes were many and included use of glazed tablewares, paints, cosmetics, and even intentional ingestion, the most significant for the nonelite, rural majority of the population may have been through background air pollution from mining and smelting of silver and lead ores that underpinned the Roman economy. …”
