Abstract: Discrete elastic rods (DER) algorithm presents a computationally efficient means of simulating the geometrically nonlinear dynamics of elastic rods. However, it can suffer from artificial energy loss during the time ...

Abstract: Changing the surface properties (i.e., roughness or friction) can be instrumental for many applications but can be a complex and resource-intensive process. In this paper, we demonstrate a novel process of controlling the ...

Abstract: Construction firms face challenges in sourcing qualified candidates for enhancing project outcomes through sensor data analytics. There are limited tools for teaching students from construction-related disciplines how to ...

Abstract: Construction, one of the largest industries in the world, consistently underperforms and faces barriers in leveraging the full potential of applying analytics to sensor data due to a lack of a skilled workforce. The prospects ...
