Modularity in support of design for re-use [PDF]
, 2001 We explore the structuring principle of modularity with the objective of analysing its current ability to meet the requirements of a 're-use' centred approach to design. We aim to highlight the correlation's between modular design and 're-use', and argue

Nature Communications, 2021 Both ecological opportunity and phenotypic modularity have been suggested to facilitate adaptive radiations. Feiner et al. show that Anolis lizards evolved a new modularity structure in their island adaptive radiation, but that this modularity did not ...

Identifying component modules [PDF]
, 2002 A computer-based system for modelling component dependencies and identifying component modules is presented. A variation of the Dependency Structure Matrix (DSM) representation was used to model component dependencies.

Product Networks, Component Modularity and Sourcing
Journal of Technology Management & Innovation, 2009 This paper develops product representations as component networks that evolve from sharing of interfaces with other components in a product and links them to the external world of sourcing.

Modularity and anti-modularity in networks with arbitrary degree distribution
Biology Direct, 2010 Background Much work in systems biology, but also in the analysis of social network and communication and transport infrastructure, involves an in-depth analysis of local and global properties of those networks, and how these properties relate to the ...

PLoS ONE, 2015 Modularity and complexity go hand in hand in the evolution of the skull of primates. Because analyses of these two parameters often use different approaches, we do not know yet how modularity evolves within, or as a consequence of, an also-evolving ...

Metabolic robustness and network modularity: a model study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Several studies have mentioned network modularity-that a network can easily be decomposed into subgraphs that are densely connected within and weakly connected between each other-as a factor affecting metabolic robustness.

The Principle of Maximal Simplicity for Modular Inorganic Crystal Structures
Crystals, 2021 Modularity is an important construction principle of many inorganic crystal structures that has been used for the analysis of structural relations, classification, structure description and structure prediction.

An a posteriori measure of network modularity [v3; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/2ju]
F1000Research, 2013 Measuring the modularity of networks, and how it deviates from random expectations, important to understand their structure and emerging properties. Several measures exist to assess modularity, which when applied to the same network, can return both ...

Configuration Optimization for Sustainable Temporary Houses Employing BIM Procedure
Buildings, 2023 Building information modeling (BIM) is a process for managing the construction information model. The possibility of managing very complex construction orders using information processes has made the work of designers both easier and more productive.
