Towards a simple compressive strength test for earth bricks
TL;DR: In this article, a simple and representative compressive strength test for earth bricks is proposed, where the best compromise is to transform the bricks as little as possible before the test and thus to test entire bricks.
An earth block with a compressive strength higher than 45 MPa
TL;DR: In this article, the results of a compressive strength test carried out on an extruded earth block of dimensions 40.7 × 13.6 × 4.8 (cm3) were presented.

Optical properties of oxynitride powders
TL;DR: In this article, a commonly used synthesis method consists of the thermal nitridation of an oxide precursor in flowing ammonia, which results an increase in the covalent character, illustrated by a shift of the absorption edge towards higher wavelength values, thus, oxynitrides offer potentialities as optical materials in the domain of colored pigments, UV absorbers and visible-light photocatalysts.
Thermal Ammonolysis Study of the Rare-Earth Tantalates RTaO4
TL;DR: In this article, a comparative study has been carried out between oxide powders prepared by a ceramic route and a chimie douce process, showing that pyrochlore structure is restricted to large rare-earths (R = Nd→Gd).

Effects of the anisotropy of extruded earth bricks on their hygrothermal properties
TL;DR: In this paper, the thermal and hydric properties of extruded earth bricks were investigated and the results confirmed that the extrusion process has a major influence on the orientation of clay layers and has an impact on the hygrothermal properties.
