Algorithmic circular design with reused structural elements: method and tool
International fib Symposium - Conceptual Design of Structures 2021, 2021 Structural systems are responsible for a significant portion of embodied carbon emissions in buildings. A potential path to increase sustainability is to integrate circular economy principles in structural de-sign, which advocate for prioritizing the ...

Designing products and services for circular consumption - A circular design tool [PDF]
, 2021 Most circular design tools focus on how to design durable products that are fit for circular (re-)production flows, or how to design circular business models. The crucial role users play for a transition to a circular economy is often overlooked in existing tools, as is design opportunities to enable and support circular consumption.

Feed rate modeling in circular–circular interpolation discontinuity for high-speed milling [PDF]
, 2013 In this paper, a modeling approach is presented in order to evaluate feed rate during a circular interpolation in high-speed milling. The developed model depends on the type of discontinuity and the kinematic performance of the machine tool.

Novel Biobased Textile Fiber from Colombian Agro-Industrial Waste Fiber
Molecules, 2018 Fique fibers, native to Colombia, are traditionally used for ropes and bags. In the extraction of long fibers for these purposes, the same amount of short fibers is generated; the short fibers are then discarded in the soil or in landfills.

, 2022 Addressing urgent environmental concerns, such as climate change, biodiversity loss, water scarcity and marine plastics, requires rapid responses. We need novel solutions that are circular by design and have the potential to change our mode of operation more rapidly and systematically.To understand and re-design our material cycles to be circular, we ...
