Abstract:
With the increase in the application of modern technologies in Civil Engineering, construction of high rise buildings is increasing very hastily. Such buildings are prone to lateral loads from wind or earthquake. Numerous approaches have been adopted to minimize the severe effects of lateral loads on the high rise buildings. Shape of building is one of such approaches. This paper presents a numerical study of the effect of building shape on the response to wind and earthquake. Three different shapes of buildings have been considered in the present study and a comparison between different shape

Abstract:
The shape classification of building objects is crucial in fields such as map generalization and spatial queries. Recently, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been used to capture high-level features and classify building shape patterns based on raster representations. However, this raster-based deep learning method binarizes the areas into building and non-building zones and does not account for the distance information between these areas, potentially leading to the loss of shape feature information. To address this limitation, this study introduces a building shape classification met

Statistical Shape Models (SSM) have wide applications in image segmentation, surface registration and morphometry. This thesis deals with an important issue in SSM, which is establishing correspondence between a set of shape surfaces on either 2D or 3D.

Abstract:
In July 2021, the Rhine-Meuse region straddling Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands was affected by devastating floods that have led to the loss of more than 240 lives and damage worth billions of Euros. The event was closely watched by regional agencies that had to organize response and recovery, and also received noticeable global attention. Diverse sets of responses and reflections accumulated among researchers, local and regional governments, local and international media, development organizations, public offices and citizen groups, wherein links to climate change and gaps in our prepare

Abstract:
This book focuses on the five key design questions that have been addressed in the design of a Riparian Amphitheatre and its execution that have shaped its form, integration into land and waterscape, structure, services and choice of building material and systems. The book documents the attempts to present a balanced account of the processes; materials, energy, carbon and the financial costs involved, the time and effort taken to plan, design and construct the Riparian Amphitheatre at the IIHS Campus. The book will inform and inspire planners and designers of institutional campuses and public

Abstract:
Much like the 2008 financial crisis, the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic will likely shape historically underserved communities for decades to come. Now, more than perhaps ever before, community development organizations (CDOs) will be central actors and foundational institutions for sustainable economic growth. Our data suggest social capital is important for CDO capacity across multiple dimensions. Given the central role CDOs will likely play in rebuilding local economies in the wake of the pandemic, we highlight how these organizations can use social capital to maintain and build politic

Full text
Abstract:
This report brings together methodological research on stochastic optimisation and work on benchmark and target applications of the ExaQute project, with a focus on unsteady problems. A practical, general method for the optimisation of the conditional value at risk is proposed. Three different optimisation problems are described: an oscillator problem selected as a suitable trial and illustration case; the shape optimisation of an airfoil, chosen as a benchmark application in the project; the shape optimisation of a tall building, which is the challenging target application set for ExaQUte.

Full text
Abstract:
This document describes the industrial application, on which the developments of the project are implemented, and the CFD set-up. The developments are implemented over six analysis cases with increasing complexity starting from a 2D geometry with mean wind inflow to a 3D geometry with turbulent inflow and real-time shape optimization. The application represents the CAARC tall building model, which has served as a benchmark model for many studies since the 1970’s when it was first developed. Base moments (bending and torsional moments) of the building are extracted for validation by comparison

Abstract:
The study focuses on three different risks that are affected through climate-related water challenges: (1) livelihoods and food security, (2) political stability and violence, and (3) interstate conflict and cooperation. Drawing on a review of existing literature and publicly available data, expert interviews, and scenario-building workshops, it identifies social, economic, institutional, and political factors that will shape the future vulnerability and resilience to the effects of global warming. Based on an assessment of current interventions, it derives recommendations for adaptation measu

Abstract:
This report presents the latest methods of optimisation under uncertainties investigated in the ExaQUte project, and their applications to problems related to civil and wind engineering. The measure of risk throughout the report is the conditional value at risk. First, the reference method is presented: the derivation of sensitivities of the risk measure; their accurate computation; and lastly, a practical optimisation algorithm with adaptive statistical estimation. Second, this method is directly applied to a nonlinear relaxation oscillator (FitzHugh–Nagumo model) with numerical experiments t

Abstract:
In the Caribbean region, clusters hold tremendous potential because of the predominance of small and micro enterprises, their weak link in value chains and the scarcity of specialized inputs. The Compete Caribbean Partnership Facility (CCPF) has backed a capacity-building campaign for the cluster approach with the aim of mainstreaming cluster interventions in the region. This report explores how the process of mainstreaming is taking shape among those business support organizations (BSOs) involved in the CCPF project, currently involved in the implementation of cluster projects.
