Designing Multi-disciplinary Interactive Virtual Environments for Next-Generation Immersive Learning Experiences: Case Studies and Future Directions in Astrobiology, Anatomy and Cultural Heritage

Sarah Irene Brutton Kenderdine

This chapter describes the creation and deployment of the Immersive Learning Level Editor (iLLE), a new cross-platform IVE engineered at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) Sydney. It illustrates the design considerations, discipline-specific workflow ...

Towards Reliable Evaluation of Algorithms for Road Network Reconstruction from Aerial Images

Pascal Fua, Mateusz Kozinski, Leonardo Citraro

Existing connectivity-oriented performance measures rank road delineation algorithms inconsistently, which makes it difficult to decide which one is best for a given application. We show that these inconsistencies stem from design flaws that make the metri ...

The Role of Machine Learning in the Understanding and Design of Materials

Berend Smit, Seyedmohamad Moosavi, Kevin Maik Jablonka

Developing algorithmic approaches for the rational design and discovery of materials can enable us to systematically find novel materials, which can have huge technological and social impact. However, such rational design requires a holistic perspective ov ...

2020

The international greenhouse gas agreements call for mitigations in the building industry. Thus, the number of scientific publications about life-cycle performance assessment (LCPA) follows an exponential trend since the 2000s. However, previous surveys hi ...

Flexible Support for Gas-Lubricated Bearing Bushings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann

Herringbone-grooved journal bearings (HGJBs) for high-speed turbo-machinery are often supported on O-rings due to their favorable stiffness and damping characteristics for stability and alignment reasons. They yield limited lifetime at high temperatures, i ...

Design and fabrication of miniaturized shape memory alloy gripper prototype

Grippers, currently used in Industry, are not suited for clean room application. Thus, a novel type of smart gripper is being designed using Shape Memory Alloys (SMA). In the development of this Smart Gripper, the modelling of the material is quite critica ...

Overview of the DEMO staged design approach in Europe

Minh Quang Tran, Elena Gaio

This paper describes the status of the pre-conceptual design activities in Europe to advance the technical basis of the design of a DEMOnstration Fusion Power Plant (DEMO) to come in operation around the middle of this century with the main aims of demonst ...

2019

The built environment is one of the major contributors of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. To tackle climate change, global targets have been set for this sector. Although life-cycle assessment (LCA) methods are typically used to evaluate a building project ...

2018

A key challenge in the design of effective survey questionnaires is to write questions that respondents can understand consistently. Recommendations in the questionnaire design literature propose the use of respondents’ own terminology to facilitate compre ...

Soft robot design methodology for ‘push-button’ manufacturing

Jamie Paik

‘Push-button’ or fully automated manufacturing would enable the production of robots with zero intervention from human hands. Realizing this utopia requires a fundamental shift from a sequential (design–materials–manufacturing) to a concurrent design metho ...
