Many natural and biomimetic platelet–matrix composites—such as nacre, silk, and clay-polymer—exhibit a remarkable balance of strength, toughness and/or stiffness, which call for a universal measure to ...

Light-weight structures are fully computationally designed and robotically fabricated. The two pavilions embody and express the strength of innovation typical for the State of Baden-Württemberg, which ...

A coupled boundary element (BEM) - finite element (FEM) approach is presented to accurately model structure-acoustic interaction systems. The coupled BEM/FEM analysis is compared with existing ...
