Questioning obsolescence: When does a dwelling reach the end of its life?

Ankita Singhvi

Buildings are demolished when they are considered obsolete, in other words, when they have reached the end of their lifespan. Demolition leads to waste; in Europe, construction and demolition waste accounts for approximately 25-30% of the total waste gener ...

Using a Data Driven Approach to Predict Waves Generated by Gravity Driven Mass Flows

Christophe Ancey, Zhenzhu Meng, Yating Hu

When colossal gravity-driven mass flows enter a body of water, they may generate waves which can have destructive consequences on coastal areas. A number of empirical equations in the form of power functions of several dimensionless groups have been develo ...
