La peinture sur lave émaillée des façades des églises parisiennes du xixe siècle : une expérience de réintroduction de la polychromie by Josette Saint-Martin

“…The study focuses on the six Paris churches with decoration painted on enamelled lava on the façade: Saint-Vincent-de-Paul, which to this day remains the best-known decoration in terms of its importance and history, La Sainte-Trinité, Saint-Augustin, Saint-Ambroise, Saint-Laurent and Saint-Joseph-des-Nations.Hypotheses have been put forwards as to the possible reasons, both technical and with regards to changing taste, which plunged the attempt to reintroduce polychromy on the façades of nineteenth-century Parisian churches in obscurity, until 1998, the year of the exhibition at the Musée de la Vie Romantique of the enamelled lavas of the church of Saint-Vincent-de-Paul.…”

Mechanism of microscopic behind the influence of stress loading on gas adsorption by coal by Zhihui Wen, Shuqian Guo, Yanxia Zhao, Yanping Wang, Ran Jia, Jiangang Ren

“…Finally, molecular dynamics simulation of gas adsorption was conducted by taking lignite as the research object. The microscopic mechanism of gas adsorption by loaded coal is elucidated from the perspectives of isothermal adsorption parameters of the loaded coal, isothermal heat of adsorption, and the changing law of the probability density distribution of adsorbed gas molecules. …”
