Fire Design of Wooden Structures [PDF]

, 1983
The paper describes and discusses the state of the art concerning the possibilities of an analytical prediction of the real fire behaviour of wooden structures and structural members. The principles of a probability based design are outlined with reference to a physical model according to Fig. 2, connected to a natxral compartment fire exposure.

Smart Bioinspired Material‐Based Actuators: Current Challenges and Prospects

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
This work gathers, in a review style, an extensive and comprehensive literature overview on the development of autonomous actuators based on synthetic materials, bringing together valuable knowledge from several studies. Furthermore, the article identifies the fundamental principles of actuation mechanisms and defines key parameters to address the size

Stochastic Locomotion Emerging From Body–Environment Interactions in a Mexican Jumping Bean–Inspired Robot

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Inspired by the Mexican jumping bean, this study presents a centimeter‐scale, electronics‐free robot that merges principles from both the animal and plant kingdoms. A thermo‐responsive actuator mimicking larval motion, enclosed within a uniquely shaped plant‐seed‐inspired shell, generates jumping, rolling, flipping, sliding, and climbing through ...

Single‐Step Analog In‐Memory Matrix Computation in Three‐Dimensional Circuits

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A wooden model illustrates a 3D memristive array designed for single‐step kernel convolutions. It shows how two‐dimensional input data are mapped into the 3D array and convolved in parallel with stored kernels. Color‐coded connection points represent programmed memory‐element values, with each color corresponding to a specific kernel weight.

STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF WOODEN FRAMES USED FOR MODERN WOODEN SCHOOL BUILDINGS

Proceedings of International Structural Engineering and Construction, 2018
Japanese school buildings have been changed from modern timber structures to reinforced concrete structures after the Building Standard Law was established in 1950. Therefore, only few modern wooden school buildings exist currently. Ensuring the seismic resilience of these wooden school buildings is essential for their preservation.

Scanning Parametric Sediment Echosounder as Tool for Underwater Archaeological Prospection

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater cultural heritage 3D prospection techniques, especially for remains that are partly buried in the ground, are only very rarely available and often can only be applied with considerable technical effort. To overcome this limitation, we evaluate a methodological adaption of widely used and available single channel parametric sediment ...

ICT technologies for the refurbishment of wooden structure buildings

CoRR, 2014
Nowadays, one would think that after years of massive concrete and steel construction in Spain, there are not many wood structure buildings left to be refurbished except for some palaces or cathedrals. However, if we go for a walk and have a look at the old part of any city, we will realize that still most of the buildings have a wood structure.
