Abstract:
Adobe masonry is one of the oldest construction systems still in use today, Mexico has an enormous cultural heritage with traditional adobe houses being very representative of the rural communities and their culture. The 2017 Puebla Earthquake on September 19th struck the country causing the loss, destruction, and damage of historic buildings in several Mexican states, with the traditional earthen dwellings being the most vulnerable structures to these events. The fast abandonment of the local materials and techniques entails further research regarding the characterization of these constructio

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Adobe is a traditional masonry made of sundried earthen bricks and mud mortar. Despite a millennial history of buildings of architectural value, adobe still connotes a so called ‘not engineered’ construction type. Namely, the material and structural properties of adobe are still not entirely addressed, resulting in an equally uncertain normative framework for adobe buildings design. However, over the last ten years, a large research program has been conducted in the Netherlands to qualify the material and structural properties of this sustainable building technology.

The type of earth dwelling is facilitated by traditional building technique such as rammed earth walls and adobe vaults, which does not only fixed the defect of humidity, bad lighting and ventilation condition, but it is also a typical green ecological building.

Adobe, in the form of sun-dried bricks and clay or lime/clay mortar, has traditionally been the primary construction material in Iran. Presently, this type of construction still constitutes a notable portion of the buildings in the urban areas and a majority of the buildings in the rural areas. Performance of traditional adobe construction during numerous Iranian earthquakes has generally been poor. Low material strength, poor workmanship, lack of proper connections between building elements, and the excessive weight of the building because of thick walls and massive roofs, are but a few of th

Adobe (khesht) is the most common traditional material which is used in Persian structures because of compatibility with environment, being economic, ease and rapidity of use. In different eras of Persian history using adobe had been common. Its archaism refers to sixth millennium B.C. Attendance to these kinds of structures is important for two reasons. First, most residential structures and old regions of cities are made by adobe. Second reason is the cultural and antiquarian aspect of monuments.

Due the brittle behaviour and low ductility of the building material, characterized by both low tensile and bending strength, earth constructions show high seismic vulnerability; nevertheless, though Colombian earthquake hazard level is considered very

In the last decades, earthen constructions have long been debated in the civil engineering and architecture community. Two are the focal points at the center of this debate: on one hand, the rediscovery of earth as an eco-friendly and easily available material, which can be used for the design of new constructions; on the other hand, the recovery, restoration and structural reinforcement of the existing buildings, particularly sensitive to degradation phenomena and vulnerable to seismic actions.

Abstract:
The highly automated and scalable nature of cloud computing encourages practitioners and scholars to reconsider software delivery processes. To efficiently leverage the benefits of elastic clouds, applications are typically provisioned and deployed several times a day in different environments and regions. Related procedures must support agile development and deployment of software components as well as the associated management of different versions and configurations. To efficiently utilize auto-scaling mechanisms, the latency produced by provisioning and deployment activities needs to be reduced while ensuring consistency, repeatability and reliability. In this chapter, an integrative process-oriented approach to improve the overall quality and performance of deployment processes is presented. Based on a comprehensive analysis of requirements, the proposed process considers the link between deployment and configuration management as well as tools and organizational aspects. Further, related research challenges and a case study focusing on the Adobe Shared Cloud are presented.

Abstract:
&lt;p&gt;Raw earth is one of the most widely used building materials and is employed in different techniques, among which adobe and rammed earth are the most common. The respective structural systems, like in masonry buildings, acceptably withstand against gravity loads, though they are significantly vulnerable to earthquakes. Moreover, a great percentage of the World’s population is still inhabited in such environments, which are endangered by future earthquakes. The current article investigates the seismic in-plane performance of an I-shaped rammed earth component by means of advanced nonlin

Abstract:
This project refers to the construction of a 3D map of Thessaloniki’s historical route. The Yedi Kule Conquest – Monument Road Race took place in the old city of Thessaloniki, which was built during the Byzantine and Ottoman period. The purpose of this project is the digital recording of the castles, the monuments, the old churches, the traditional buildings, and the squares which are prime examples of the architectural beauty of the place. The methodology of the project is based on the online software Google Earth Studio and Adobe Premiere Pro. These are the tools of digitization, rendering,
