Distinct from recycling, reuse maintains the shape, energy, know-how, technology and cultural part embedded in a component to use it beyond an initial use into a new project without strongly altering it. The "hub" for research and resale of reusable constr ...
Atropisomeric (hetero)biaryls are motifs with increasing significance in ligands, natural products, and biologically active molecules. The straightforward construction of the stereogenic axis by efficient C-H functionalization methods is extremely rare and ...
Design practice depends heavily on display of drawings or photographs – representations of buildings and landscapes – from architecture schools to competitions and from client meetings to the final publicity of a completed project. Archives and other recor ...
The contemporary energy context can be considered as a period of energy transition, where the latest protocols focus on limiting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and improving energy efficiency across the different energy consumption sectors. As the largest ...
Conceived around the concept of protostructure, HOUSE 1 deploys a strategy to answer a daring but simple question: How could we design a house between almost 300 people? The unique pedagogical framework of ALICE, first year Architectural Design course, pro ...
Managing infrastructure assets is challenging for developed countries because of demand for increases in capacity, the scarcity of economic and environmental resources as well as ageing. Due to conservative approaches to construction design and practice, i ...
Inspired by the introduction of Volumetric Modeling via volumetric representations (V-reps) by Massarwi and Elber in 2016, in this paper we present a novel approach for the construction of isogeometric numerical methods for elliptic PDEs on trimmed geometr ...
On November 11, 2017, the world's first railway bridge built in reinforced UHPFRC on a main railway line lane was put in service. The building project of the Swiss Federal Railways was realized within a replacement project of a double‐lane railway bridge o ...
This thesis describes the design and synthesis of clathrochelate metalloligands for the construction of molecular nanostructures. The low synthetic effort, versatility and stability of the clathrochelate metalloligands makes them particularly suited to the ...
This bi-annual workshop is an introduction to parametric design for Master 1 students following Studio Weinand. The following topics are being discussed: impact of digital technologies on the design process, fabrication and assembly constraints, collaborat ...
