A Structural Design Methodology for Freeform Timber Plate Structures Using Wood-Wood Connections

Anh Chi Nguyen

Over the past decades, timber has gained popularity as a sustainable building material because of the rising environmental awareness. Furthermore, the resurgence of timber has also been encouraged by the advent of the digital age during the 21st century. T ...

Measurement-system design for structural identification

Numa Joy Bertola

In developed countries, the management of existing civil infrastructure is challenging due to evolving functional requirements, aging and climate change. Due to conservative approaches in construction design and practice, infrastructure often has hidden re ...

Fluorination of Organic Spacer Impacts on the Structural and Optical Response of 2D Perovskites

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Giulia Grancini, Inés Garcia Benito, Valentin Ianis Emmanuel Queloz, Tom Theodorus Antonius Lummen, Pietro Caprioglio

Low-dimensional hybrid perovskites have triggered significant research interest due to their intrinsically tunable optoelectronic properties and technologically relevant material stability. In particular, the role of the organic spacer on the inherent stru ...

Extension of Winkler’s solution to non-isothermal conditions for capturing the behaviour of plane geostructures subjected to thermal and mechanical actions

Lyesse Laloui, Qazim Llabjani, Alessandro Francesco Rotta Loria, Jacopo Zannin

Before this study, no analytical models had been made available for describing the behaviour of plane geostructures subjected to thermal and mechanical actions. This knowledge gap notably represented a limitation for investigations about the behaviour of s ...

The zaojing: review of a unique wooden construction typology

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jingxian Ye

The zaojing is an ancient Chinese construction system consisting of a dome-shaped assembly of interlocked wooden pieces. These structures are placed above live performance spaces to enhance sound diffusion while creating background scenery. Existing zaojin ...

Thioredoxin-Related Transmembrane Proteins: TMX1 and Little Brothers TMX2, TMX3, TMX4 and TMX5

Maurizio Molinari

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is site of synthesis and maturation of membrane and secretory proteins in eukaryotic cells. The ER contains more than 20 members of the Protein Disulfide Isomerase (PDI) family. These enzymes regulate formation, isomerization ...

Performance Assessment of Double-Layered Timber Plate Shells using Alternative Structural Systems

Yves Weinand, Petras Vestartas, Anh Chi Nguyen, Bertrand Mathieu C Himmer

With recent advances in digital fabrication, innovative wood-wood connections inspired by ancient timber joining techniques have recently been applied to various free-form timber plate structures. This paper focuses on the recently developed double-layered ...

Restoration of ancient Chinese opera spiral wooden domes, accounts of field practice

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jingxian Ye

The zaojing is a wooden construction system that covers opera stages for rain protection and sound control. Zaojings in China display a diverse range of geometric expressions, delicate manufacturing, structural behaviours, and acoustic qualities. Despite t ...

Post-synthesis deposition of mesoporous niobic acid with improved thermal stability by kinetically controlled sol–gel overcoating

Jeremy Luterbacher, Florent Emmanuel Héroguel, Yuan-Peng Du

Niobia is a well-known solid acid catalyst owing to its intrinsic Brønsted and Lewis acidity. However, catalyst development with this oxide has been limited by our ability to control its pore structure and thermal stability. Here we report a novel post-syn ...

Measurement data interpretation and prediction for optimal management of bridges

Marco Proverbio

For many developed countries, the asset management of aging infrastructure continues to present challenges and risks. Around the world, built-environment assets such as bridges, require functional changes and future-proofing in order to accommodate new and ...
