Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Volume 25, Issue 4, December 2025.ABSTRACT The structural design optimization aims for robust structures with minimal use of material resources, leading to slender and thin‐walled structures, which entail a higher risk of stability problems. This issue is further influenced by geometrical imperfections, which are subjected to uncertainties.

Glued Laminated Timber in Architecture [PDF]
Drvna Industrija, 2010 Structural glued laminated timber (glulam) is an engineered, stress-rated product that consists of two or more layers of lumber (i.e., laminations) glued together with the grain running lengthwise.

Monte Carlo tree search for mass timber building design optimization
Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 31, Page 6242-6260, 29 December 2025.Abstract Mass timber construction has gained significant traction in recent years due to its sustainability and lower energy demands. However, its broader adoption remains limited by higher material costs, compared to conventional construction materials.

Fire and Materials, Volume 49, Issue 6, Page 878-903, October 2025.ABSTRACT This paper presents the development of finite element models for timber connections with gaps under fire conditions which are subsequently validated using experimental data. Fourteen models are developed for concealed steel‐to‐timber connection configurations with gap sizes of 0, 3, 6 and 10 mm exposed to ISO 834 standard fire for 120 min ...

Air-coupled ultrasound inspection of glued laminated timber [PDF]
, 2017 A novel air-coupled ultrasound (ACU) 120kHz normal transmission system enabled successful imaging of bonding and saw cut defects in multilayered glulam beams up to 280mm in height with a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 40dB.

Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 29, Issue 4, Page 1250-1264, August 2025.Abstract Nowadays, hardwood in Germany is mainly used for heat production despite several available or developed material applications. However, questions arise about how hardwood can be used in the future to best meet its environmental reduction potential, including consequences through replacing non‐renewable energy carriers or products.
