GlobalBuildingMap -- Unveiling the Mystery of Global Buildings [PDF]
arXivUnderstanding how buildings are distributed globally is crucial to revealing the human footprint on our home planet. This built environment affects local climate, land surface albedo, resource distribution, and many other key factors that influence well-being and human health.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.When realized as inserts in high‐pressure die casting, aluminum cooling channels for electric powertrain components and similar applications typically require a stabilizing filler to survive the process. The present study investigates relinquishing this filler using additively manufactured inserts promising performance improvements.

Pole Allocation Applied to Two Buildings Connected by Joint Damper
Shock and VibrationFor two adjacent buildings connected by a joint damper, an inverse problem is formulated based on the pole allocation method in control theory. The structural system is simplified as a two-degrees-of-freedom (2-DOF) lumped-mass damped shear model.

Building realistic assemblages with a Joint Species Distribution Model [PDF]
, 2014 1. Species distribution models (SDMs) can be used to predict how individual species---and whole assemblages of species---will respond to a changing environment. Until now, these models have either assumed (1) that species' occurrence probabilities are uncorrelated, or (2) that species respond linearly to preselected environmental variables.

Toughness of Confined Auxetic Foams
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Auxetic (negative Poisson's ratio) materials offer benefits such as impact mitigation, thermal insulation, vibration damping, and reduced shear strain, although their fracture mechanics are largely unexplored. This study investigates damage initiation and propagation in confined re‐entrant auxetic foams from polyurethane via experimental ...

Ingeniería e Investigación, 2006 Masonry and steel components used in constructing buildings are in a constant state of motion. Volumetric changes are produced by temperature variation and deformation resulting from static or dynamic loading and in some materials, such as masonry, due to moisture content.

Ultrahigh Piezoelectricity in Truss‐Based Ferroelectric Ceramics Metamaterials
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.By leveraging the unique combination of polarization direction and loading state, ultrahigh piezoelectricity is achieved through careful tuning of the relative density and scaling ratio in truss‐based ferroelectric metamaterials. This approach enables the simultaneous realization of extremely high piezoelectric constants and ultralow dielectric ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study demonstrates that in sputter‐deposited Tb3Fe5O12 (TbIG)/nonmagnetic metal (NM) heterostructures, the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya Interaction (DMI) originates at the TbIG/NM interface. Furthermore, measurements suggest a significant interfacial DMI arising from a second non‐local interface, created by inserting a Cu spacer layer between
