Research on Design of Modular Apartment Building Product Platform for Manufacture and Assembly: A Case Study of the Modular Dormitory Building Design Project

Buildings
Currently, the global construction industry is facing challenges of stagnant efficiency and cost overruns. The potential of modular construction has not been fully unleashed due to the disconnection between design and manufacturing. This paper proposes a

Bibliometric Review of Prefabricated and Modular Timber Construction from 1990 to 2023: Evolution, Trends, and Current Challenges

Sustainability
Due to its inherent characteristics, such as a light weight and ease of workability, timber is ideal for prefabricated and modular construction. However, since the research in this field covers a wide range of niches such as structural engineering ...

Modular Forms: Constructions & Applications

, 2021
This thesis combines results of five research papers on the construction and applications of modular forms and their generalisations. We begin by constructing new examples of quantum modular forms of depth two, generalising results of Bringmann, Kaszian, and Milas. To do so, we relate the asymptotics of certain false theta functions of binary quadratic

On the modular metric completion

Applied General Topology
The purpose of this paper is to present the construction of the completion of a set equipped with a modular metric that we call the modular completion. We show for instance that any set equipped with a modular metric has a modular completion.
