Sustainability and Ethicality are Peripheral to Students’ Software Design

Bryan Alexander Ford, Siara Ruth Isaac, Aditi Kothiyal, Pierluca Borsò

The conceptual design phase is a fascinating moment to observe how a design task is interpreted, as the (often implicit) relative importance students accord to the various requirements and constraints offers a window into the thinking underpinning their de ...

Performance Estimation of High-Level Dataflow Program on Heterogeneous Platforms by Dynamic Network Execution

Marco Mattavelli, Simone Casale Brunet, Aurélien François Gilbert Bloch

The performance of programs executed on heterogeneous parallel platforms largely depends on the design choices regarding how to partition the processing on the various different processing units. In other words, it depends on the assumptions and parameters ...

Influence of amount of shear reinforcement and its post-yield response on the shear resistance of reinforced concrete members

Aurelio Muttoni, Miguel Fernández Ruiz, Frédéric Monney

The minimum amount of shear reinforcement to be provided in reinforced concrete members has been a topic of debate and research for decades without reaching a consensus. Defining such values is however instrumental to build in an economic manner and to saf ...

3D Weaving with Curved Ribbons

Mark Pauly, Florin Isvoranu, Francis Julian Panetta, Yingying Ren, Tian Chen, Samuel Jean Bernard Poincloux, Christopher Brandt

Basket weaving is a traditional craft for creating curved surfaces as an interwoven array of thin, flexible, and initially straight ribbons. The three-dimensional shape of a woven structure emerges through a complex interplay of the elastic bending behavio ...

Robust optimization of power grid with distributed generation and improved reliability

Zhengchao Wang, Amarasinghage Tharindu Dasun Perera

Uncertainties of demand, generation and component outage can lead to black-outs in the grid. This study proposes an optimization algorithm (based on Benders Decomposition (BD)) to optimize a Power Transmission System (PTS) that is robust to aforementioned ...

Impact of Classical Control Electronics on Qubit Fidelity

Edoardo Charbon

Quantum processors rely on classical electronic controllers to manipulate and read out the state of quantum bits (qubits). As the performance of the quantum processor improves, nonidealities in the classical controller can become the performance bottleneck ...

Development and test application of the UrbanSOLve decision-support prototype for early-stage neighborhood design

Marilyne Andersen, Émilie Nault

The need for adequate instruments to support practitioners toward achieving sustainable and energy-efficient architectural and urban design has long been acknowledged. Motivated by identified shortcomings of building performance assessment tools for concep ...

Visualization, Adaptation, and Transformation of Procedural Grammars

Stefan Lienhard

Procedural shape grammars are powerful tools for the automatic generation of highly detailed 3D content from a set of descriptive rules. It is easy to encode variations in stochastic and parametric grammars, and an uncountable number of models can be gener ...
