Abstract: This article proposes an inverse design method based on numerical Green’s function (NGF-IDM) to achieve the intelligent and efficient design of waveguide devices. Inspired by the metal ...

Abstract: Detection of concrete element cracks and their properties is essential to maintain the health of structures, as cracks affect the durability and serviceability of concrete structures.

Have you stood in front of an ancient monument and experienced a sense of wonder, as though the building itself was whispering secrets of the cosmos? From Egypt's towering pyramids to Europe's ...

The world uses billions of tons of concrete every year. Concrete production is a big contributor to climate change, making up about 8% of global carbon emissions each year. Researchers around the ...

Masoud Akbarzadeh (left), a professor of architecture at the University of Pennsylvania, is working with students to design concrete structures that use as little concrete as possible while remaining ...

US researchers have developed Enzymatic Structural Material (ESM), a carbon-negative alternative to concrete that turns carbon dioxide into a solid structural asset. Strong and cost-effective, this ...
