Scientists in Australia are turning to the sea to find inspiration. They believe the intricate design of lobster shells can help them create stronger forms of concrete. Researchers in Australia think ...
As we’ve seen through recently constructed office buildings in Dubai, bridges in the Netherlands and low-cost housing in Latin America, 3D printing is beginning to shape the way modern structures are ...
The University of Michigan’s DART Laboratory has unveiled a new product called Shell Wall—which the organization describes as the first lightweight, freeform 3D printed and structurally reinforced ...
The heart of the four metre tall curved concrete shell is knitted. The structure's formwork is a textile supported by a steel cable-net. The prototype KnitCandela marks the first application that this ...
Small-scale tests indicated that as compared to same-size traditional walls built out of solid concrete, Shell Wall elements offer a 72% reduction in weight while providing the same structural ...
Finite element analysis (FEA) of shell structures encompasses the numerical simulation of thin‐walled, curved bodies subject to mechanical loads and environmental effects. Shell elements combine ...
Austria’s inflatable concrete technology turns flat slabs into arches and domes, cutting costs and attracting railway ...
SYDNEY (Reuters) - Inspired by the natural, twisting patterns of a lobster shell, Australian researchers say they have found a way, using 3D printing technology, to improve the strength of concrete ...
This time of year, bushels of rhubarb, potatoes, and lettuce can be harvested in abundance at the People’s Pantry, a community garden that doubles as a fresh food pantry in Blackpool, England. There, ...
The University of Michigan researchers have developed a method for creating ultra-lightweight, waste-free concrete using 3D printing technology called the "Shell Wall." Researchers at the University ...
