Abstract:
Building-integrated photovoltaic system is to import a photovoltaic panel system into the shell structure of a building by using building design techniques, so that the system constituents not only generate power, but are also a part of the building’s shell. If the photovoltaic panel is integrated with a sun shield, a power benefit could be obtained and both solar irradiation and the cooling load could be reduced. This study aimed to use CFD technology for analysis of building surface thermal control and flow field simulation, and further discuss the effects of the relative position of the sun and atmospheric wind flow field on the distribution of building surface temperatures and flow fields at different hours and in different seasons. Understanding the sun's position and other climatic conditions accurately is helpful for locating solar panels and solar collectors on buildings.

Abstract:
Thin-walled cylindrical shell made of reinforced concrete, is widely used in the construction of buildings and structures as coatings and forms of architecture of buildings. Thin-walled shell its shape can give entertainment to the architectural design of buildings, and their rigidity helps to block large spans, creating more closure of the room without additional supports. Another advantage of using cloud forms of structures is the efficiency of this design, since for the manufacture of shell forms of structures less construction material is spent than any other design for coating. The purpose of theoretical calculations and the studied excrement over reinforced concrete shells with different elastic modules, is to ensure reliability in the operation of buildings and structures, and to exclude accidents arising resonance phenomena of free vibrations of the shells from the effects of external forces (loads). On the basis of the laboratories of Komsomolsk-on-Amur state University in the laboratory of building materials and structures, experimental studies were conducted to determine the spectra of forced and free vibrations of the reinforced concrete shell with different elastic modules. The purpose of research on reinforced concrete shells is to determine the oscillation frequencies at different locations of the combined masses. The article deals with the theoretical calculation based on the equation of the theory of flat thin-walled shells, using the Bubnov-Galerkin method, by which we determine how the parameters of the shell affect the process of free oscillation.

Abstract:
Wind pressure distribution was investigated on a multiple hyperbolic paraboloid (HP) shell roof building by model test in the wind tunnel. The roof of the model was a grouping of four similar HP shells in a ‘normal’ array forming a square in plan. Wind tunnel experiments were carried out; wind pressure distribution and the contours of wind pressure on shell roof and walls were determined for various wind directions. The average suctions on roof were computed and compared with those on a single HP shell roof and on a multiple HP shell roof having a ‘sawtooth’ array. The highest point suction encountered was −4·12 q whilst the maximum average suction on the roof was −0·61 q.

Abstract:
The paper covers the visualization of a volume-space form of the flexible inextensible one-layer shell that is represented in the stress and strain state appearing during fastening the shell on the upper edge and its free location below the fastening border in the field of gravitational and elastic forces of the material. With no account taken of the gravitational forces, the shell is a right circular flattened cone. A developed program module can be used in designing and calculating the thin-wall shell structures during their non-linear deformation and their visualization. Visualization of the space form of the shell structure can be used for simulating various products, for instance, the cone antennae or the textile products, flexible elastic shells in the hydraulic engineering, etc.

Abstract:
Introduction. Optimization is a criterion, on the ground of which, comparative estimation of possible alternatives and selection of the best decisions is carried out. Cost of a shell, its minimum weight, absence of bending moments and tensile normal stresses, given stress state for acting external load, given bearing capacity when optimal shallowness, maximum external load, minimum weight under limitation on the value of natural frequencies of vibration and maximum displacements, absence of bending moments with taking into account internal pressure, dead weight, and centrifugal forces; maximum of critical force and something else can be criterion of selection of optimal shape of shell of revolution. Methods. The main criteria of optimality for shells of revolution and information sources for the 1970-2019 periods are presented in a paper. It will help to study previous results devoted to using optimizations and to set about further investigation. But there is no single approach to the definition of optimal shell of revolution and obviously will not be, because own optimizations are necessary for every concrete case of loading, or distribution of stresses along the thickness, or under the demands to the ratio of the volume and area of considered shell, or with due regard for different kind of expenses, and other demands. Results. For the first time, 24 criteria of optimality only for shells of revolution were discovered. The names of scientists offered presented criteria of optimality and the 45 references dealing with this question are pointed out. It is shown that principles put in the basis of optimal design and criteria of optimality must be given with the help of language quite naturally for computer.

Study of the prerequisites of the structural solutions in building and machine-building, the history of the development and perfecting of technologies of erection of shells of revolution will permit to generalize the experience accumulated by designers and to develop new fundamental solutions. Otherwise, architects, structural engineers, and designers will be repeating the achieved solutions in building, architecture, and machine-building.

Abstract:
It’s been almost a decade that the idea of smart materials has attracted man’s attention. These materials are capable of responding to their surrounding environment and of adapting to it. The development pace of construction materials has also been towards multi-purpose and smart materials, which would ultimately result in manufacturing phase matters. In fact, the existence of smart structural materials and systems has played a substantial role in developing the idea of the smart control of a construction. These materials can improve designing methods and the construction of buildings. In the sustainable buildings design approach (a new approach to designing buildings which should meet a high level of environmental standards with an emphasis on the costs of their useful lifespan), such highly efficient materials are used because they are more adaptable to the environment and increase a building’s useful lifespan. In this article, some of the smart materials used for the façade are introduced and their performances will be studied. It is concluded that using such technologies requires less energy and very little amounts of chemicals and detergents which could be a step taken towards achieving sustainable architectural and environmental goals.

Abstract:
This research investigated the impact of agricultural biomass additives (Argan shell) on the thermal and physical properties of fired clay bricks for building application. The objective of the study is to characterize the selected materials from molecule up to the final materials used in buildings. The materials used in this study, are soil and Argan shells, locally available materials for brick making. The Argan shells were grinded and then added to the clay mixture. The Clay brick shows a formation of pores during the firing process up to 1050°C. As results, the bulk density of the clay bricks decreased due to the pores formation. On the other hand, the thermal conductivity of the clay bricks was reduced by 53% using 20wt% of the biomass additives.

The article presents a study of the interaction of strip foundations of multistorey apartment houses united by flat cylindrical shells with a ground base. The foundation of a 17-storey residential building has been taken as an example. The ground base consists of strong upper and highly compressible underlying layers. The use of traditional foundations under the specified conditions is hardly possible. The calculation scheme of the building and the stages of the ground foundation work are represented. Also, the researchers share the results of geotechnical monitoring in the construction process including observations of settlings at 25 points with an accuracy of 0.1 mm and measurement of layer-by-layer deformations of the ground base under the building to a depth of 10 meters from the surface. The diagrams demonstrate the actual settlement of the building with increasing load and layer-by-layer deformations of the ground base in depth are presented.

Abstract:
Relevance. Architects and engineers, designing shells of revolution, use in their projects, as a rule, spherical shells, paraboloids, hyperboloids, and ellipsoids of revolution well proved themselves. But near hundreds of other surfaces of revolution, which can be applied with success in building and in machine-building, are known. Methods. Optimization problem of design of axisymmetric shell subjected to given external load is under consideration. As usual, the solution of this problem consists in the finding of shape of the meridian and in the distribution of the shell thickness along the meridian. In the paper, the narrower problem is considered. That is a selection of the shell shape from several known types, the middle surfaces of which can be given by parametrical equations. The results of static strength analyses of the domes of different Gaussian curvature with the same overall dimensions subjected to the uniformly distributed surface load are presented. Variational-difference energy method of analysis is used. Results. Comparison of results of strength analyses of six selected domes showed that a paraboloid of revolution and a dome with a middle surface in the form of the surface of rotation of the z = - a cosh( x/b ) curve around the Oz axis have the better indices of stress-strain state. These domes work almost in the momentless state and it is very well for thin-walled shell structures. New criterion of optimality can be called “minimum normal stresses in shells of revolution with the same overall dimensions, boundary conditions, and external load”.

The shell is inherited from the city, not literally but psychically. It is an urban design response that relates to my sense of the neighborhood: its history, its growth, and its ability to provide opportunity in so many different forms within its overall continuity. The inhabitation is personal artistic expression: nest, home, and place within the neighborhood. It needs to satisfy body and mind, physical and aesthetic senses. The juxtaposition of these two elements is every person's journey to find their place in the world, between self and society. This design project is part of my journey toward finding a place between a piece of the city and a personal set of notions about physical space.

This thesis implemented a prototype of an expert system shell for support of engineering design activities in the way of logic programming. The development of the system is based on the theoretical framework for knowledge-based system design and the formal modeling concepts. Under the above methodologies, two knowledge representations, production rule system and system entity structure, are incorporated into the knowledge base for figuring design structures. Here the production system scheme is employed for synthesis of design models represented in the system entity structure. The whole system is coded in Turbo Prolog and a specific domain knowledge, namely a local area network, is currently used as a testbed environment.

Abstract:
The empirical focus of this research comprises the UK television news battles between Greenpeace (a highly media-aware International Non-Governmental Organisation (INGO)), and the oil company Shell (a multinational corporation (MNC)). Specifically, two such media battles are examined, both receiving international attention and intense media publicity during 1995: - The battle between Royal Dutch/Shell, particularly, its subsidiary Shell-UK, and Greenpeace over the deep-sea disposal of the Brent Spar oil platform; - The battle between Royal Dutch/Shell's Nigerian subsidiary, the Shell Petroleum Development Corporation (SPDC) (hereafter referred to as Shell-Nigeria), and Greenpeace (amongst others) over environmental pollution in Ogoniland, Nigeria. These two battles were chosen mainly because they share the same main protagonists - Greenpeace and Shell - providing rich material for a number of interesting questions regarding media agenda-building.

Abstract:
This thesis uses the lens of building technology to examine cultural exchange and its relationship to the building crafts. By focusing on masonry vaulting in India, my research brings together two worlds – one that shines light on the variety of innovative masonry shell construction techniques that exist in the county and another that seeks to evaluate the scope of tile vaulting, an over 600-year old Mediterranean building technique, within India’s evolving building crafts culture. This thesis is organized in three parts: PART ONE Tile Vaulting and Relevance Today | A Brief History of Masonry Shells in India Part one introduces tile vaulting’s unique principles compared to other vaulting traditions while contextualizing its relevance to present day India. A survey of varied masonry vaulting techniques and modules, endemic and imported, practiced across India is presented against the backdrop of what is a predominantly reinforced concrete-based construction industry. PART TWO Modules, Methods and Motivations The second part of this research comprises case studies that include some of India’s most iconic buildings such as the Villa Sarabhai by Le Corbusier, the National Institute of Design by Gautam Sarabhai and Sangath by B.V. Doshi, each of which employed innovative construction techniques for its vaults. The production and use of the enigmatic ceramic fuses in India is examined for the first time alongside their indigenous cousins: burnt clay tubes. Together with Muzaffarnagar vaulting, the case studies reveal cultural motivations for architectural expression and production in postcolonial India. PART THREE Prototypes | Comparatives | Limitations & Extension of Research Part three presents five tile vaulting prototypes in India constructed with local artisans to gain understanding of its cultural reception, assess effective transfer of skills and potential internalisation. Recommendations for tile vaulting’s potential uptake into mainstream architectural production is evaluated by comparing findings against prevalent building methods and by contextualizing current architectural trends and social policy. Limitations and scope for extension of research are also discussed.

Abstract:
Building rammed earth structures provides a sustainable alternative to concrete. As a building material, rammed earth exhibits very varied physical and material properties depending on the proportion of constituting soil types. When very sandy soil is used in rammed earth production, the properties are different from when a clayey soil is used. This variability can be seen as a very great advantage in the use of rammed earth as a building material. Builders are able to adjust specific properties by changing mix proportions to obtain a desirable balance in the characteristics of the resulting rammed earth structure. This research work looks at selected mechanical and physical properties of different mixes of rammed earth. It describes typical range of values in density, thermal conductivity, ultrasonic pulse velocity, water ingress and compressive strength. It examines how these factors interrelate in the same soil mixes. Samples were prepared by blending various soil types in specific proportions to ensure that each definition of soil grade is as specific as possible. Unstabilised rammed earth was tested as was cement stabilised rammed earth. Rammed earth was tested at various levels of stabilisation and it was discovered that higher rates of stabilisation was not always beneficial to every material property. The research also looked into the potential disposal of waste materials in rammed earth. As rammed earth is a monolithic material that largely remains undisturbed throughout its life span, it was suggested that waste materials could be stored in an inert form inside of rammed earth rather than dumping it in otherwise agricultural landmass. Pulverised Fuel Ash and Palm Kernel Shells were identified as wastes to be disposed in rammed earth. Pulverised Fuel Ash, a by-product of industrial furnace is found in abundance in developed countries that burn carbonaceous materials in power plants. Disposals have been seen as a problem as only a small proportion of high loss on ignition (LOI) Pulverised Fuel Ash has found application. Palm Kernel Shell is a by-product of the oil palm industry and is currently a menace in many developing countries that need to dispose large quantities of the shell in landfills. At an early stage of the research, experimental trial runs quickly showed that these supposedly waste materials had a positive effect on some of the material properties of the rammed earth walls they were made into. This research effort evolved to look into exploiting these materials to improve the physical and material property of rammed earth and to suggest their effect on stabilised and unstabilised rammed earth. The extent to which these materials could be useful and the level at which diminishing returns set in was also investigated. It was discovered that soil mixes that would otherwise not be considered suitable for use in rammed earth wall production can now be utilised as their characteristics can be improved on simply by adding Pulverised Fuel Ash or Palm Kernel shell in the right proportion. Incorporating Pulverised Fuel Ash in rammed earth resulted in increased compressive strength. Palm Kernel shell improved thermal properties without compromising compressive strength.

Abstract:
The building industry makes up a considerable fraction of world&

s energy consumption. The adverse effects of a growing energy demand such as depletion in fossil fuel reserves and natural resources hassled the building industry to a search for new technologies that result in less energy consumption together with the maximum utilization of natural resources. Energy- and ecology-conscious European countries incorporated the well-being of occupants while conducting research on innovative technologies. In view of the fact that double-skin faç
ades offer a healthy and comfortable milieu for the occupants and use natural resources hence consume less energy they became a promising invention for all concerns. The analysis of the performance of the double-skin faç
ades and energy consumption is inconclusive at this time. However, based upon thermal performance analysis have been done so far, a double-skin faç
ade perform better and provide some energy reduction, particularly on the heating side cycle, from a standard double glazed unit wall. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between double-skin faç
ades and building management systems in intelligent office buildings as they relate to energy efficiency issues thus to find out whether or not the integration of these systems into intelligent buildings provides optimization in energy performance and comfort conditions. The building for the case study, which is an intelligent office building incorporating a double-skin faç
ade was selected as one that promises high comfort conditions for the occupants with low energy consumption. The working principles of integrated faç
ade systems, together with their advantages and disadvantages were investigated by means of the case study. It was concluded that due to their high initial costs, these systems offer no real advantages for today. However with the inevitable exhaustion of fossil fuels that is foreseen for the future, these systems would become an innovative solution in terms of energy conservation.

Abstract:
The European Parliament and Council Directive 2010/31/EU states that all member states of EU shall ensure that all new buildings are nearly zero-energy after December 31 2020. For now, there are no efficient, cost effective and widely used tools to achieve such performance. To achieve the goal set out in the legislation there is a need for an appropriate solution in order to minimize energy consumption of a building or obtain energy on site from renewable resources. The first method to achieve it is to minimize heat losses through the envelope of a building in winter and prevent overheating in summer. Traditional construction types used in buildings have static thermal properties. There is an energy efficiency potential in dynamic thermal properties of building constructions. Ideas for such constructions can be found in nature following the biomimicry methodology that solves human problems inspired by processes in nature. In this paper a feasibility is studied of one proposed CABS (Climate Adaptive Building Shell) using a numerical analysis. The proposed CABS is a system where geothermal energy is used for façade heating thus minimizing heat losses through building envelope and utilizing renewable energy. A geothermal heat from shallow depth of 3.2 m is utilized. The CABS consists of a piping system built in the façade of a building ensuring a circulation of a heat-transfer medium which is transporting the heat from the ground where the temperature is constant all year to the façade. Circulation of a fluid is ensured by buoyancy forces alone. The resulting rise of façade temperature reduces peak primary energy demand thus improving building performance. The mechanism of this CABS is inspired by the blood vessel system in animals. For the numerical analysis ANSYS Fluent 16.2 is used.

Abstract:
Additive manufacturing (AM) process is widely used in fabricating three-dimensional (3D) models with complex internal features due to its flexibility and fast building speed. Inspired by the recent development of origami structures, we investigate a super-fast AM process for fabricating prototype models of hollow shapes. By combining the origami design and the additive manufacturing technology, a new fabrication process named Assembled Additive Manufacturing (AAM) is developed. A folding technique is used either during or after the layer-based fabrication process. By turning a 3D structure into a foldable two-dimensional (2D) structure, the fabrication speed is dramatically increased due to the decreased number of layers that is required in the building process. Detailed procedures of the AAM process such as unfolding algorithms of an input model, foldable structure design and folding mechanism are introduced in the paper. Experimental tests are also presented to illustrate the effective and efficiency of the AAM process.

Abstract:
In order to withstand the malicious impact of large commercial aircraft, the structure of steel concrete is usually used for shield building’s exterior wall, but due to the form of steel concrete structure is special, it often bring difficulties to the computational analysis of finite element in the design and review. The multi-layer shell element is an equivalent method based on the actual physical layering of material, and has the corresponding function in large-scale finite element software (ANSYS, ABAQUS). The method basic idea is to build a shell element based on the mechanics of composite material. According to the requirement, the shell element can be divided into different thicknesses, material properties and appropriate number of integral points. In the finite element calculation, the stress and strain values can be calculated independently for each integration point. This paper aiming the steel concrete structure in the checking calculation of shield building, used the multi-layer shell element method to simulate and analysis. Based on the modal analysis and spectrum analysis calculations of shield building are performed by using the finite element methods, studying the applicable condition of the methods. The analysis showed that the multi-layer shell element method are able to effectively simulate the structure of steel concrete, and can view more detailed analysis of the stress distribution of steel inside the concrete steel and concrete between the layers, in order to better grasp the safety of the shielding plant.

Abstract:
This paper investigates the vulnerability of a typical medium-rise circular RC building against progressive collapse as a result of blast generated waves. The building is an eight storied (including one story basement) commercial complex. The likely blast threat scenario was identified by qualitatively assessing the vulnerability of the critical elements of the structure. LS-DYNA was used for the finite element modelling of the structure. The study presents local model analysis of one of its circular columns for which fluid-structure interaction through Alternate Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) element formulation has been employed. The concrete volume in the columns was modeled using 8-node reduced integration solid hexahedron elements. The global model analysis was carried out to examine the overall response of the structure due to the failure of one of the critical columns. The building was modeled using beam and shell elements. The 2-node axial beam elements with tension, compression, torsion, and bending capabilities were employed to represent the RC beams and columns, whereas the four node quadrilateral and three node triangular shell elements were used to represent the core wall, floor slabs, retaining walls and facade. The column bases of the building were fixed at the level of raft slab. The results of the study are proposed to be used to control or prevent progressive collapse of RC buildings.
