Shear wall plan layout optimization considering seismic loads

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Seismic force resistant structural design requires experience and time. Shear wall elements are generally used in concrete structures due to their high stiffness against horizontal forces. The aim of this study is to obtain optimum structural wall disposition by using building information modeling (BIM) technologies.

Quantifying Structural Complexity, Effort, and Performance: An Early Experiment Using Network Design Tasks

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Structural Complexity is perceived as driving cost in system development, yet managing it effectively requires empirical understanding. This study investigates human decision‐making using a toy transportation‐style network design task, focusing on how Structural Complexity, Effort, and Performance interact. Seventy‐four participants (primarily

Evaluating the Microstructure and Interaction of Bioaggregates in Concrete Using microCT

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the use of x‐ray computed microtomography (microCT) to evaluate the incorporation of bioaggregates—specifically macauba (Acrocomia aculeata) endocarp and jute fibers—into cement‐based composites. MicroCT enables non‐destructive, three‐dimensional characterization of the internal microstructure, providing insights into ...

Physics‐Driven Deep Neural Networks for Solving the Optimal Transport Problem Associated With the Monge–Ampère Equation

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monge–Ampère equations (MAEs) are fully nonlinear second‐order partial differential equations (PDEs), which are closely related to various fields including optimal transport (OT) theory, geometrical optics and affine geometry. Despite their significance, MAEs are extremely challenging to solve.
