Optimization of energy consumption and cost effectiveness of modular buildings by using renewable energy sources [PDF]

open access: yesActa Montanistica Slovaca, 2015
Problems of the temporary structures are generally dealt with by the use of modular buildings. These actually meet the terms of low costs, as appose to the terms of convenience of use, or energy efficiency in operation.

Integrated BIM and VR for Interactive Aerodynamic Design and Wind Comfort Analysis of Modular Buildings

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
Modular building is becoming a common sight due to government policies promoting greater automation and productivity. When moving towards modularity, indoor comfort within volumetric modules, such as levels of humidity and temperature, natural ...

Evaluation of the Structural Performance of a Novel Methodology for Connecting Modular Units Using Straight and Cross-Shaped Connector Plates in Modular Buildings

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
The strength capacity of modular buildings is determined by the weakest part, and connections between modular units are often weaker than the modular units themselves.

Analyses of Structural Robustness of Prefabricated Modular Buildings: A Case Study on Mid-Rise Building Configurations

open access: yesBuildings, 2022
The limited knowledge of the behaviour of modular buildings subjected to different loading scenarios and thereby lack of design guidelines hinder the growth of modular construction practices despite its widespread benefits.

Modular Building Design: Post‐Brexit Housing [PDF]

open access: yesce/papers, 2019
ABSTRACTThe use of modular building systems (MBSs) in the construction sector is increasing. MBSs enhance structural performance of buildings, quality control, and construction speed than traditional methods at a lower cost. Additional benefits can be associated with resource efficiency at both the production and construction phases, which may increase

Prospects of Triangular Modular Structures for Roadside Service Buildings

open access: yesDesigns, 2022
The need for a relatively quick solution to the problem of providing highways with roadside service facilities necessitates the development of a series of appropriate standard projects. To increase the efficiency of these series, it is advisable to carry

Modular A5 symmetry for flavour model building [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
Abstract In the framework of the modular symmetry approach to lepton flavour, we consider a class of theories where matter superfields transform in representations of the finite modular group Γ5 ≃ A 5. We explicitly construct a basis for the 11 modular forms of weight 2 and level 5.

The Influence of Inter-Connections Characteristics on the Lateral Performance of Braced-Frame Modular Steel Buildings [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering
The use of pre-fabricated modular units for the construction of mid to high-rise buildings has been promoted recently. The modular units are fabricated in a factory and then transported to the construction site to form a structure using inter-connections.
