It looks at how medical facilities can ... -
A Study on the Effects of Vertical Mass Irregularity on Seismic Behavior of BRBFs and CBFs
(Applied Sciences;Volume 10, Issue 23, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-11-24)Today, architectural application and economic constraints require that vertical-irregular structures be constructed in urban areas. Proposing methods to minimize damage to these structures during earthquakes is therefore ... -
A submodeling technique for incorporating sheet metal forming effects in an AA5083 FPV structure
(Structures;, Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)While the first generation of floating photovoltaics (FPV) was designed for operation in freshwater reservoirs, the technology is currently expanding to marine territories. In this paper, an FPV structure made from formed ... -
A Survey Dataset Evaluating Perceptions of Civil Engineering Students about Building Information Modelling (BIM)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The implementation of Building Information Modelling (BIM) technologies has become increasingly central in the design, construction and maintenance of both civil structures and infras- tructures. As more and more software ... -
Synthetic data generation for the creation of bridge digital twins what-if scenarios
(Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2023)The Digital Twin (DT) concept, as understood nowadays, appeared in the early 2000s as an attempt to create virtual replicas of physical assets, such as bridges, that can be used to examine, monitor and manage their ... -
