In order to understand the overall picture, different technologies for use of thin-walled prefabricated elements in bridge construction as well first-time application them a project Austria are described this paper. Thereafter newly developed method on-site fabrication lightweight box-shaped segments from concrete elements, strengthened with steel girders, is explained focus lying on prototype ...

The pursuit for more load-adapted, individualized, and at the same time precise building geometries is driving innovation in digital fabrication with concrete towards greater formal freedom higher degrees of prefabrication. This article reviews opportunities using three-dimensional (3D)-printed formwork context pre-fabricated construction. It identifies geometric specificities future planning t...

Modeling and design of on-chip interconnect continue to be a fundamental roadblock for high-speed electronics. The continuous scaling devices interconnects generates self mutual inductances, resulting in generating second-order dynamical systems. model order reduction is an essential part any modern computer-aided tool prefabrication verification the components interconnects. existing methods u...

Process engineering is applied to the design of a new I concept of a municipal incinerator. Each of seven incin· eration process areas are analyzed separately and the equivalent process in the chemical and metallurgical industries examined for proven design features applicable to incineration. Examples of integration of designs for process areas are given. Advantages of this new inciner­ ator c...

The use of 3D computer-aided design (CAD) models to support construction project planning has been increasing in the previous year. 3D CAD models reveal more planning ideas by visually showing the construction site environment in different stages of the construction process. Using 3D CAD models together with scheduling software to prepare construction plan can identify errors in process sequenc...

The thesis project was the vehicle for an investigation of prefabrication, assembly, and the design of a lived space. Elements are separated from the building and from each other. This separation is both physically and functionally significant. This separation of elements is presented as the architecture of a joint. The wall is divided into two parts: exterior and interior; creating a wall that...

A competitive, market oriented and rationalized construction tomorrow requires developing of automated and robotized construction system today. This includes industrialized process originating in a mining, construction material production, prefabrication of construction components, on site construction, facility management, rehabilitation and recycling. Today’s construction projects are charact...

Bone defects represent a medical and socioeconomic challenge. Different types of biomaterials are applied for reconstructive indications and receive rising interest. However, autologous bone grafts are still considered as the gold standard for reconstruction of extended bone defects. The generation of bioartificial bone tissues may help to overcome the problems related to donor site morbidity a...

For many years, at-home whitening has been used with great success and produces some of the most satisfying results of all dental procedures. Historically, the most common procedure used was a custom-fabricated tray loaded with a 10% carbamide peroxide gel that was worn overnight. Today, many manufacturers offer higher concentrations (15% and 20% carbamide peroxide) for faster results. Regardle...

Customers’ demands regarding quality and cost efficiency caused the Swedish construction industry to increase its levels of prefabrication. However, the main focus has been on the structural design and production in the development of these new building systems, and very little attention has been devoted to customer needs and requirements. This has created a situation where ad hoc solutions hav...
