RISGeometric Design Algorithm for Karbandi Stellar Ribbed Vaults
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Karbandi is a ribbed masonry vault form based on a stellar harmonic geometry in Iranian historical architecture. The present article aims to unfold the geometric characteristics of Karbandi and use them as the basis of ...
Membrane Theory of a Paraboloid with an Oculus
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The membrane solution for the parabolic dome, or paraboloid, has been recently developed. This solution encompasses equations for both meridian and hoop stresses, for the case of gravity load and uniform shell wall thickness. ...
Modifying School Courtyard Design to Optimize Thermal Conditions and Energy Consumption in a Hot Arid Climate
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This research focuses on schools due to their significant energy consumption. It explores the use of well-designed unshaded courtyards as a passive design strategy in hot climate regions, an area that has received limited ...
Orientation-Based Analysis of Trombe Walls with Enhanced Glazing Systems across Different Annual Thermal Periods
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Trombe walls (TWs) are among the principal energy-efficient passive alternatives for use in building envelopes. This study was carried out as a result of the dearth and limits of previous research on TW glazing units, as ...
Analytical and Numerical Analyses for Modal Responses of Insulating Glass Units
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Insulating glass units (IGUs) are structures composed of glass plates entrapping a gas and sealed by perimeter spacers, for thermal and acoustic insulation. Most research reported in the literature has treated this type ...
