Structural capacity of precast concrete walls with openings: A parametric study on connection types and reinforcement ratios

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The structural role of precast concrete walls with openings is often overlooked in design practice due to concerns about reduced stiffness, stress concentration, cracking around openings, and potential unexpected failure modes under seismic loading.

Three‐dimensional meso‐scale finite element modeling of recycled aggregate concrete using cohesive zone method

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract The presence of adhered mortar (AM) in recycled aggregates (RAs) significantly affects the mechanical performance of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). Meso‐scale modeling provides valuable insights into complex phase interactions, enabling a better understanding of RAC behavior.

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...

Real‐Time Conformal Maps and Parameterizations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a simple algorithm to conformally map between two simple and bounded planar domains based on the concept of harmonic measure, which is a conformal invariant. With suitable preprocessing, the algorithm is fast enough to compute all possible conformal maps (having three real degrees of freedom) between the two domains in real time in

Volume Quantization with Flexible Singularities for Hexahedral Meshing

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a novel algorithm for quantization and subsequent hexahedral mesh generation from seamless volumetric maps. Quantization is the process of choosing integers that represent the numbers of hexahedral elements to be placed in each region of the volume, and transforming the seamless map into an integer‐grid map matching that choice ...
