Designing façade and envelope for a high-rise residential building using energy-efficient materials: A case in Istanbul, Turkey
(IOP Publishing, 2022)The construction industry is responsible for 40% of global energy demand as buildings increase heating, cooling, and lighting demand. Therefore, building energy performance has become one of the most significant subjects ... -
Designing redundant cable-driven parallel robots for additive manufacturing using end-effector compliance index
(IEEE, 2023)This paper presents a methodology for optimizing cable anchor points for cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs) for specific additive manufacturing tasks. Much of a CDPR's workspace is generally not used for printing tasks. ... -
Effect of flexural demands in the leaner columns on the column buckling strength
(Earthquake Engineering Research Institute, 2018)Leaner columns of steel frames are typically designed for axial load only and they are assumed not to contribute to the lateral stiffness of the system; however, a recent study revealed that under seismic loading leaner ... -
Estimating roadway horizontal alignment using artificial neural network
(IEEE, 2021)This paper presents a novel approach for extracting horizontal alignment data from Geographic Information Systems (GIS) centerline shapefiles. Estimating the road horizontal alignment is formulated as a minimization problem, ... -
Evaluation of code provisions for seismic performance of unachored liquid storage tanks
(National Technical University of Athens, 2017)Seismic performance of two unanchored liquid-storage tanks with tank diameter of 24.5 m and 36 m and operating liquid height of 12.2 m and 20.0 m, respectively were investigated using Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian (CEL) and ... -
Feature extraction for enhancing data-driven urban building energy models
(European Council on Computing in Construction (EC3), 2023)Building energy demand assessment plays a crucial role in designing energy-efficient building stocks. However, most studies adopting a data-driven approach feel the deficiency of datasets with building-specific information ... -
