Selection of optimum structural systems and materials [PDF]

WIT Transactions on The Built Environment, Vol 91, 2007
This paper proposes procedures and guidelines for the selection of optimum structural systems and materials in two stages. Stage one is based on a list of criteria, including architectural considerations. Stage two evaluates selected systems and materials for optimum performance of criteria considered critical for a given project.

3D porosity structure of the earliest solar system material

Scientific Reports, 2022
AbstractCarbonaceous chondrites (CCs) contain the earliest preserved Solar System material, and objects containing this material are targets of numerous sample return missions. Both laboratory and remote sensing data have shown that this material can be highly porous, but the origin and nature of this porosity is currently not well understood.
