Spring’s blue sky After a miserable winter with newspapers and television screens filled with semi-coherent tweets from a certain Presidential ego-maniac, not to mention pre-and post-Brexit self-inflicted gloom and despondency, Spring is finally here and with it the chance of some decent weather and longer days to enjoy the Yorkshire Dales – just voted Britain’s favourite National Park. And what better way than to escape our rubbish-filled electronic screens by exploring that same National Park by walking, or maybe re-walking, part or all the Dales Way? Thankfully the long saga of flood damage problems on the Dales Way in Cumbria is now all behind us. Thanks to the hard work of so many rangers, footpath officers, contractors and National Park and other volunteers, almost all the Dales Way is now fully re-opened for walking. You will read elsewhere of what has been achieved over the autumn and winter. In fact, there is especially good news from Burneside as exciting plans forming the vibrant, community-led Burneside Vision to develop the village as a community-led eco- and visitor-friendly place to call in or stay on the Dales Way begin to be rolled out. Top news is a new small brewery at Bowston, north of the village alongside the River Kent, waiting to welcome walkers, which is also planned to soon have a walkers’ and cyclists’ cafe and a shop.

Supervisor Professor Lauri Rautkari Instructor D.Sc. Maija Kymäläinen Aalto University, P.O. BOX 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Abstract of master's thesis Author Tuuli Uimonen Title of thesis Effect of hornification on the properties of thermally modified Scots pine under saturated steam Department Department of Bioproducts and Biosystems Professorship Fibre and Polymer Code of professorship CHEM3024 Engineering Thesis supervisor Prof. Lauri Rautkari Thesis advisors D.Sc. Maija Kymäläinen Date 13.2.2017 Number of pages 54 Language English Abstract The aim of this thesis was to investigate the effect of hornification on the properties of Scots pine thermally modified under saturated steam. Experiment was carried out to never-dried Scots pine samples at temperatures of 160 °C and 170 °C under saturated steam for 3 hours. After the modification, samples were dried at 75 °C at five different RH: 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 95%. EMC at 20 °C and RH 65%, impact strength, MOE and MOR, swelling and ASE were then tested and compared. Addition to those, hornification was measured using deuterium exchange method in DVS apparatus. The method for DVS was developed, and resulted to the adding of re-wetting step to the process and using of 12 hours impregnation time for deuterium oxide. Finally, HPAEC and GC-MS were used to analyse condensation water and the acetone soluble compounds from modified and unmodified samples.

  • Burneside, Staveley, Ings & Upstream Measures Update
    Kent Catchment Flood Risk Management Scheme Update Burneside, Staveley, Ings, and upstream measures February 2021 The Environment Agency has proposed a three phase Flood Risk Management Scheme to better protect residential and business properties from flooding in the Kent catchment. We are starting our detailed design phase for Burneside, Staveley, Ings and the upstream storage locations. Below is a snaptshot of some of these benefits being delivered as part of the three phase scheme; 1480 1151 82 Homes better protected Businesses employing Community facilities 6,105 people better protected better protected £800k £ 3666 55 Secured to deliver NFM New trees planted – six new Hectares of habitat & in the Kent Catchment trees planted for every one recreational space improved removed Background Kendal, Burneside, Staveley, and Ings have a long history of flooding which was experienced most recently during Storm Desmond in 2015, when 2,276 homes and businesses were flooded. Since then, the Environment Agency along with Cumbria County Council, South Lakeland District Council, United Utilities, and other professional partners includingConstruction the local community, identified over 60 different options to address the complex flood issues thatstarts affect the catchment. Each option was considered for their technical feasibility, economic viability, environmental sustainability, and social acceptability. The preferred option was presented at a public meeting in Kendal Town Hall on the 26th September 2018. The preferred option takes a catchment based approach, and will be delivered in three phases. The scheme includes a combination of linear defences, improved pumping and conveyance, upstream storage, and complimentary Natural Flood Management interventions. Once the three-phase scheme is complete, 1480 homes and 1151 business in Kendal, Burneside, Staveley, and Ings will be better protected, reducing the flood risk to a 1 in 100yr standard of protection or a 1% chance of flooding in any given year.
