While the influence of the component strength on the structural behaviour of Historic
Masonry Structures (HMS) is relatively well studied, few studies have investigated masonry …

An assembly refers to a collection of parts joined together to achieve a specific form and/or
functionality. Designing assemblies is a non‐trivial task as a slight local modification on a …

Around 2005 it became apparent in the geometry processing community that freeform
architecture contains many problems of a geometric nature to be solved, and many …

Recent work has demonstrated that the interior material layout of a 3D model can be
designed to make a fabricated replica satisfy application-specific demands on its physical …

Abstract 3d printing of cementitious material is a relatively new additive manufacturing
process whose growing interest and fast development is mainly due to the digitalised …

We present a pipeline of algorithms that decomposes a given polygon model into parts such
that each part can be 3D printed with high (outer) surface quality. For this we exploit the fact …

The potential of self-transforming structures with complex geometries has inspired numerous
researchers from science, engineering, and art to explore novel materials, multi-material …

We propose a novel type of planar-to-spatial deployable structures that we call elastic
geodesic grids. Our approach aims at the approximation of freeform surfaces with spatial …

In Generalized Barycentric Coordinates in Computer Graphics and Computational
Mechanics, eminent computer graphics and computational mechanics researchers provide …

Geometrically complex masonry structures (eg, arches, domes, vaults) are traditionally built
with scaffolding or falsework to provide stability during construction. The process of building …
