Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHYGLASS: Design Proposal for an Integrated Multifunctional Hybrid Glass-Steel StructureMaurizio Froli, Francesco LacconeContemporary cities demand smart communication infrastructures to facilitate the interaction of residents and visitors with the urban environment. Such systems are required to be network-connected, interactive, environmental-sensitive and energetically self-sustaining. Moreover, in outdoor applications they should mark an urban focal point and should be able to satisfy additional public requirements like illumination, transmission of information etc. In the framework of … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2018 · 7,257 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHeuristic Algorithm in Optimal Discrete Structural DesignsAlongkorn Lamom, Thaksin Thepchatri, Wanchai RivepiboonThis study proposes a Heuristic Algorithm for Material Size Selection (HAMSS). It is developed to handle discrete structural optimization problems. The proposed algorithm (HAMSS), Simulated Annealing Algorithm (SA) and the conventional design algorithm obtained from a structural steel design software are studied with three selected examples. The HAMSS, in fact, is the adaptation from the traditional SA. Although the SA … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,347 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCase Study on the Effects of Plan Irregularities on Seismic Performance of StructuresEduardo Flores, Tadeh ZirakianGeometric configurations, such as large openings, re-entrant corners, and discontinuity in diaphragms, are very common in architectural design but are seen as undesirable for structural performance during earthquakes. The lateral systems in a structure resist the strong forces induced during an earthquake, preventing damage or collapse of the structure. If these systems fail, the structural integrity of the building may … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 21 Jul 2024 · 5,726 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTesting Composite Valve Covers for Reciprocating Engine ApplicationsPeng Hao Wang, Natalie ZimmermannThe use of composites within the aeronautical field is not limited to airframe applications and includes powerplant components in reciprocating engines. To add to the research body in this area, the presented work aimed to evaluate the performance of novel carbon fiber valve covers installed on an aircraft reciprocating engine. Specifically, the comparative performance between novel composite-based valve covers and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2022 · 5,842 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTechnical Stability of Very Slender Rectangular Columns Compressed by Ball-And-Socket Joints without FrictionKrzysztof MurawskiStability of load-bearing members, as known, is a challenging issue and several tools are available for designers. Disregarding the material properties in use, the avoidance of possible stability troubles is a mandatory and challenging step of the overall design process. In this study, a theoretical model is presented for the of loss of stability in elastic states of very slender … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 16 Nov 2020 · 5,999 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvolutionary Structural Optimization of Wind Bracing Connection Plates in Steel StructuresReza Kasiri, Saeid Eslamian, Theodore C. Crusberg et al.Evolutionary Structural Optimization (ESO) is one of the rules in structural engineering which has received much attention by the researchers. Today, the reduction of construction cost and weight is an important issue in the structure design. The optimization phenomenon is pursuing to fulfill this objective. Thus, presenting a design which could be both safe and economic is of special significance. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 15 Jul 2020 · 6,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Sandwich Panel Under High Temperature Loading Using Finite Element AnalysisSajjad Sayyar Roudsari, Armaghan Shalbaftabar, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh et al.Structural and nonstructural members are always encountered with extreme loading conditions. In case of nonstructural members, the failure happens much sooner due to lack of load capacity. The nonstructural elements are not designed for structural loading conditions. However, they might be impacted to other loading types such as fire. In recent years, the use of 3D panel is one of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2020 · 7,683 accessesView PDFCite
