Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransformable Curved Thin Glass GreenhouseLaura GaluppiThe use of new generation thin, lightweight and damage-resistant glass, originally conceived for electronic displays, is being very recently proposed for structural applications, in particular for adaptive and movable skins and façades. This paper explores this concept and presents a study on the structural use of thin glass in greenhouses for protected agriculture, based on the use of cold-twisted elements … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 1 Dec 2018 · 6,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative Study of Mobility Models for Wireless Sensor NetworksAnas Abu TalebWireless sensor networks consist of hundreds or thousands of small, lightweight and low-powered sensor nodes that are deployed in the area of interest to collect information in an unattended manner. Since sensor nodes have limited battery, many research papers proposed techniques to enhance the performance and lifetime of wireless sensor networks. Using energy rich mobile sink to collect data from … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 10 · 10 Oct 2018 · 8,068 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeometry and Direct Kinematics to MP3R with 4×4 OperatorsRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.Anthropomorphic mechatronic systems are the most widely used robotics systems worldwide today in industry and in all automated environments. These systems are best suited to the modern automation and mechatronisation needs of the modern world, being mobile, dynamic, light, robust, complex, technologically simple, easy to design and manufactured, implemented, maintained and used in almost any industrial site, both in machine … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 1 Dec 2017 · 7,241 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview on the use of FRP Composites for Facades and Building SkinsChiara BedonFiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composites represent a class of materials typically able to offer excellent mechanical, thermal and insulation properties, taking advantage of a combination of their constitutive fibers and polymers. Due to their intrinsic lightweight properties, FRP composites are in use for aerospace, automotive, marine industries and ballistic armor since several decades. Only in a subsequent phase, i.e. since … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 29 Sep 2016 · 9,227 accessesView PDFCite
