Bistable Mechanisms 3D Printing for Mechanically Programmable Vibration Control

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces a 3D‐printed bistable mechanism integrated into tuned mass dampers (TMDs) for mechanically adaptive passive vibration suppression. Through optimized geometry, the bistable design provides adaptable vibration reduction across a broad range of scenarios, achieving effective vibration mitigation without complex controls or external ...

Assessing Efficiency and Environmental Performance of a Nearly Zero-Energy University Building’s Energy System in Norway

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Increasing awareness of climate issues in recent decades has led to new policies on buildings’ energy consumption and energy performance. The European Union (EU) directive 2010/31/EC, i.e., the energy performance of buildings directive (EPBD), is one of ...

Preliminary Energy Audit of the Historical Building of the School of Engineering and Architecture of Bologna [PDF]

open access: yes, 1917
Energy efficiency has become a common target for every building: the European Directive 2010/31 provides that by 2020 every new building must consume very little fossil energy (Nearly Zero Energy Building) and from 2018 also public buildings will have to

Characterization of Defect Distribution in an Additively Manufactured AlSi10Mg as a Function of Processing Parameters and Correlations with Extreme Value Statistics

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Predicting extreme defects in additive manufacturing remains a key challenge limiting its structural reliability. This study proposes a statistical framework that integrates Extreme Value Theory with advanced process indicators to explore defect–process relationships and improve the estimation of critical defect sizes. The approach provides a basis for

What kind of heat loss requirements NZEB and deep renovation sets for building envelope? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In most of countries the energy performance of buildings is defined as (primary) energy use of whole buildingâ s (heating, cooling, ventilation, DHW, lighting, HVAC auxiliary, appliances), not as specific requirements for building envelope.
