Les siphons en terre cuite du monde romain : l’exemple de l’aqueduc d’Almuñécar (Andalousie, Espagne) by Elena H. Sánchez López

“…The analysis result shows that there is not a major difference in the dimensions of the pipes used with either function, which seems to indicate that the clay pipes used in the siphons were not made with any special characteristics.The text finally discusses the possible reasons behind the choice of terracotta over other materials in manufacturing siphon pipes.The analysis of Roman siphons, and more generally Roman aqueducts, produces different explanations. …”

Multifractal characteristics of pore structure in the terrestrial shale reservoirs of the Lianggaoshan formation in northeast sichuan basin and its geological significance by Jiping Wang, Jiping Wang, Hongmei Shao, Hongmei Shao, Yuanhao Zhang, Yuanhao Zhang, Zhenxue Jiang, Zhenxue Jiang, Bo Gao, Bo Gao, Lingling Li, Lingling Li, Huifang Pan, Huifang Pan, Haonan Wang, Haonan Wang, Xi Lu, Xi Lu, Hengyuan Qiu, Hengyuan Qiu, Xiaobiao He, Xiaobiao He, Chengju Zhang, Chengju Zhang

“…Lastly, the pore structure of massive fine-silt sandstone exhibits a high degree of complexity and heterogeneity, revealing the significant influence of quartz and clay mineral interactions on pore development. These findings advance the understanding of shale pore structure and its impact on hydrocarbon enrichment and recovery in the Lianggaoshan Formation, and offer valuable guidance for optimizing “sweet spot” selection. …”

Les fours « à pain » dans les Gaules et les Germanies (ve s. av. J.-C.-ve s. apr. J.-C.), un regard technique by Nicolas Monteix, Camille Noûs

“…While the shape of the dome makes the oven energy-intensive, other features help to improve its energy capacity, such as a basalt ring at the base of the dome and a sole built of baked clay on a thick layer of sand. Subsequently, the different variations observed in the construction techniques of dome ovens are presented. …”
