Projective transformations of structural equilibrium

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet

Direct methods that transform the geometry of a structure and conserve its static equilibrium are of particular interest for designers. They allow the exploration of alternative solutions at minimum computational cost. While parallel transformations (stret ...

Evolution of pore structure in blended systems

Karen Scrivener, Elise Marie Jeanne Berodier

In this study, the effect of SCM in the cement paste was isolated by using ternary systems combining Portland cement, quartz and SCM. The results show clear differences in how the hydrates from the reaction of clinker, slag and fly ash fill space. The reac ...

Transforming architectures inspired by origami

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis

Paper folding is found across cultures for both aesthetic and functional purposes, with its most widely recognized exponent being the ancient art form of origami. More recently, there has been an upsurge of interest for translating origami designs into mat ...

A macroscopic poromechanical model of cement hydration

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion

This paper describes a macroscopic model of the chemo-thermo-poromechanical behaviour of a hydrating cement paste. The hydrating cement is viewed as an open hardening porous medium. The increments of elastic and viscoelastic strain, pore pressure, temperat ...

Knowledge Recombination Across Technological Boundaries: Scientists vs. Engineers

Marc Gruber

Building on the seminal work of Thomas J. Allen, we contribute to the emerging microlevel theory of knowledge recombination by examining how individual-level characteristics of inventors affect the breadth of their technological recombinations. Our data se ...

Levels-of-Approximation Approach in Codes of Practice

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz

Civil engineering projects typically involve a number of design phases, such as preliminary design, tender design and executive design. The required degree of accuracy for the analysis of the behaviour and strength of the structural members increases as a ...

Geneva, from car-euphoria to opening of the borders

Hanja-Niriana Maksim

Over the last two decades, urban planning has been reapplied in several European countries: common tendencies that underline the reform of planning procedures are the generalization of sustainable development and the reorganization of local government. Bri ...

Building on the seminal work of Allen (1977), we contribute to the emerging micro-level theory of knowledge recombination by examining how individual-level characteristics of inventors affect the breadth of their technological recombinations. Our data set ...

Strongly feasible stochastic model predictive control

Milan Korda

In this article we develop a systematic approach to enforce strong feasibility of probabilistically constrained stochastic model predictive control problems for linear discrete-time systems under affine disturbance feedback policies. Two approaches are pre ...

Connected at any cost? The vulnerability of critical infrastructures and crisis management

Valérie November

Critical infrastructures are receiving a great deal of attention, due, on the one hand, to the major malfunctions to which they are subject and their potential as targets of malicious intent on the other. Economic and political impacts are studied; increas ...
