Building better, building beautiful: Novel method allows more architects to design attractive gridshell structures
A researcher from the University of Tokyo and a U.S.-based structural engineer developed a new computational form-finding ...
In the present work, the working state of the crane leg is analyzed and discussed, and its structure is optimized. SolidWorks software is used for modeling; ANSYS software is used for finite element ...
Seattle’s Sound Transit had a challenging problem: how to get a new light-rail line on and off a nearly 1-mile-long Interstate 90 floating bridge while protecting the rails from the constant movement ...
In a time when people are craving deeper connections with the natural world, architecture is evolving to meet that desire. No longer ...
If the unfortunate fate of shiplap—and modern farmhouse as a whole—has taught us anything, it’s that design is cyclical, and what’s ‘new’ will eventually become ‘cheugy.’ The latest architectural ...
Apple’s iMac devices have been around for a long time. The design, though sleek and good looking, has been starting to get a little long in the tooth. While the iMac lineup received a spec refresh ...
Scientists have been playing with pure carbon compounds for centuries, starting with diamond and graphite and now with fullerenes, nanotubes and graphene. One type of 3D geometry has been missing, ...
