New UCF tech uses AI, VR to monitor safety of bridges, buildings
From University of Central Florida 19/11/23 Monitoring the structural health of the nation’s aging buildings and bridges is vital to keeping people safe and helping prevent tragedies such as the Surfside condominium collapse in 2021. That’s why University of Central Florida researchers have developed four new inventions that use artificial intelligence and virtual reality to […]
Tall buildings could be built quicker and more cheaply if damping models were correct
From University of Bristol 20/09/23 Multi-storey buildings are assembled over cautiously to withstand wind strengths, researchers have found. This is because there are several difficulties in estimating damping – the method of removing energy in order to control vibratory motion like noise and mechanical oscillation, accurately in high-rise buildings. The findings, published today in the […]
