6. A flexible and polarizable water model built on interpolated multipoles
Abstract : Water has a rich phase diagram with regions of meta-stability, the prime examples being super-cooled and super-heated liquid water.Below ca 50 °C, water exhibits unusual and not yet fully explained anomalous thermodynamic properties upon cooling, for example a minimum in compressibility at 46 °C, a minimum in heat capacity at 35 °C, a density maximum at 4 °C, and a compressibility maximum at -44 °C in the supercooled liquid, at ambient pressure.

8. Moisture-induced distortion in timber structures - examples based on partition walls
Abstract : The shape of timber changes due to variations in moisture content (MC). In Scandinavia, producers normally dry timber to an MC of 18%. However, after the studs are built into the wall structure, for example, they may become distorted as a result of further drying in the structure. The final MC in a heated building in Scandinavia is about 8%. READ MORE
