Hugo Rodrigues, Tomohiro Fukuda, Simon Elias Bibri
R7,799 Discovery Miles 77 990 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book gathers current research studies which explore new technologies in architecture and urban practices which ensure the efficient management of cities’ infrastructures and provide new solutions to the complex complications that may result in the tackling of challenges of population density, traffic planning, and city planning at the neighborhood scale or rather the scale of buildings and everyday life. It offers a path towards city resilience and sustainable infrastructure with the aim of meeting the demands of mega-cities. The primary audience of this book will be academics and professionals from the fields of architecture, urban planning, civil engineering, computer sciences, and mathematics. The book will aid them in their contributions to the implementation of sustainable development goals.

Nondestructive Techniques for the Assessment and Preservation of Historic Structures (Hardcover): Luisa Maria da Silva... Nondestructive Techniques for the Assessment and Preservation of Historic Structures (Hardcover)
Luisa Maria da Silva Goncalves, Hugo Rodrigues, Florindo Gaspar
R3,698 Discovery Miles 36 980 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

New technologies play an increasingly important role in the analysis, monitoring, restoration, and preservation of historic structures. These technological systems continue to get more advanced and complex, for example: 3D digital construction and documentation programming, 3D imaging data (including laser scanning and photogrammetry), multispectral and thermographic imaging, geophysical data, etc. This book will present the latest nondestructive technologies used in the characterization, preservation, and structural health monitoring of historic buildings. It will include numerous case studies, as well as theoretical explanations about each of the methods and technologies used in each.

Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of Civil Engineering Structures at Multiple Scales - From Single Buildings to Large-Scale... Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of Civil Engineering Structures at Multiple Scales - From Single Buildings to Large-Scale Assessment (Paperback)
Tiago Miguel Ferreira, Hugo Rodrigues
R4,961 Discovery Miles 49 610 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Seismic Vulnerability Assessment of Civil Engineering Structures at Multiple Scales: From Single Buildings to Large-Scale Assessment provides an integrated, multiscale platform for fundamental and applied studies on the seismic vulnerability assessment of civil engineering structures, including buildings with different materials and building typologies. The book shows how various outputs obtained from different scales and layers of assessment (from building scale to the urban area) can be used to outline and implement effective risk mitigation, response and recovery strategies. In addition, it highlights how significant advances in earthquake engineering research have been achieved with the rise of new technologies and techniques. The wide variety of construction and structural systems associated with the complex behavior of their materials significantly limits the application of current codes and building standards to the existing building stock, hence this book is a welcomed guide on new construction standards and practices.

Sustainability and Automation in Smart Constructions - Proceedings of the International Conference on Automation Innovation in Construction (CIAC-2019), Leiria, Portugal (Paperback, 1st ed. 2021)
Hugo Rodrigues, Florindo Gaspar, Paulo Fernandes, Artur Mateus
R9,960 Discovery Miles 99 600 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book gathers outstanding papers presented at the Conference on Automation Innovation in Construction (CIAC-2019). In recent years, there have been significant transformations in the construction sector regarding production and the use of computers and automation to create smart and autonomous systems. At the same time, innovative construction materials and alternative technologies are crucial to overcoming the challenges currently facing the building materials industry. The book presents numerous examples of smart construction technologies, discusses the applications of new construction materials and technologies, and includes studies on recent trends in automation as applied to the construction sector.

Focusing on the use of masonry in construction, Masonry: Design, Materials and Techniques is a book updated with the latest sustainable materials and practices. This book emphasizes the use of structural masonry, from the historical masonry and use of masonry in historical constructions, the use of masonry in vernacular constructions and the use of masonry in recent buildings. It includes such aspects of masonry from ancient traditions to the latest advances, materials, and techniques. In each chapter, the thematic issues are supported by case studies featuring monumental buildings, low-rise buildings with unreinforced masonry, and recent RC buildings with clay masonry. Masonry: Design, Materials and Techniques covers the following topics: Materials and techniques used in masonry construction, seismic behavior of URM buildings, monumental buildings, monitoring and assessment, numerical strategies used for masonry buildings, structural behavior and design of low-rise, wall bearing buildings, non-destructive tests in the characterization of masonry walls, vulnerability and sustainability of vernacular construction, and codes and design of RC buildings with infill masonry walls.

Desde hace anos, el interes por la conservacion de los recursos naturales es prioridad en cualquier parte del planeta, y el alarmante menoscabo de las areas naturales parece imposible de detener. Sin embargo, hoy en dia subsisten diversos grupos humanos con profundas raices etnicas que muestran como posible la integracion del ser humano a su ecosistema aportando acciones para su conservacion, mediante practicas sustentadas en un conocimiento ancestral que es transmitido a traves de las generaciones. En este trabajo, damos a conocer la forma en que se da la relacion ser humano-naturaleza entre los miembros de la etnia nahua de una region: la Sierra Norte de Puebla en Mexico como ejemplo para exponer una propuesta teorica sobre la cosmovision y un metodo: el etnografico-hermeneutico que nos han sido utiles para acceder a esta relacion, a su significado e implicaciones de conservacion ecologica.
