Floor panel, which includes a substrate and a top layer provided above, and preferably directly above, the substrate, where the top layer includes a décor layer, a thermoplastic wear layer, and a lacquer layer provided above, and preferably directly above, the wear layer, and where the floor panel has an upper surface showing a relief, where the relief has a maximum relief depth which is larger than 100 microns, and where the wear layer and the lacquer layer are embossed in order to form the relief.

A structure adapted to traverse a fluid environment exerting an ambient fluid pressure is provided. The structure includes an elongate body extending from a root to a wingtip and encapsulating at least one interior volume containing an interior fluid exerting an interior fluid pressure that is different from the ambient fluid pressure. A method of retrofitting a structure adapted to traverse a fluid environment exerting an ambient fluid pressure, the structure comprising an elongate body extending from a root to a wingtip and having at least one interior volume is also provided. The method includes sealing the elongate body to encapsulate the at least one interior volume containing an interior fluid; associating at least one valve with the at least one interior volume; and modifying interior fluid content via the at least one valve to produce an interior fluid pressure that is different from the ambient fluid pressure.

A building wall includes an exterior surface and an interior surface. The exterior surface faces the exterior of the building and the interior surface faces an interior room of the building. The wall has a total wall thermal resistance between the exterior surface and the interior surface. The wall includes a structural member positioned between the exterior surface and the interior surface, and the structural member is configured to bear at least a portion of a vertical load of the wall. An insulated composite wall panel is positioned between the structural member and the interior surface. The insulated composite wall panel includes a skin layer including glass fibers and a cellulose fiber insulation board attached with a resin to a first surface of the skin layer. The thermal resistance of the cellulose fiber insulation board comprises the greatest component of the total wall thermal resistance.

Floor panel, which includes a substrate and a top layer provided above, and preferably directly above, the substrate, where the top layer includes a décor layer, a thermoplastic wear layer, and a lacquer layer provided above, and preferably directly above, the wear layer, and where the floor panel has an upper surface showing a relief, where the relief has a maximum relief depth which is larger than 100 microns, and where the wear layer and the lacquer layer are embossed in order to form the relief.
