Around half of the world’s population are living in some form of earthen building. Compressed earth blocks are widely known as a low-cost material that has high thermal capacity, low environmental impact, and ease of construction. The project will address three items: material characterization, development length of steel reinforcing bars and performance under freeze-thaw cycles. […]

Network parameter configuration is crucial for optimizing performance in a cellular network. Often, such parameters are too numerous and their interdependence too complicated for them to be efficiently configured by human experts. Therefore, it is of great interest to study network parameter configuration as a machine learning problem. We aim to expand on the machine […]

The production of cement contributes to 8% of global CO2 emissions resulting in a pressing need to develop strategies for reducing the use of cement. This research project focuses on reducing cement use by improving structural efficiency. In order to fully understand the behaviour of these efficient structural elements and ensure that they will provide […]

Concrete—the most common construction material in the world—represents the main component of construction. Aggregate materials normally occupy about 70% of the concrete volume and their production results in excessive emission of carbon dioxide. One potential solution to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions from the construction industry is to use the newly developed bio-resin Biofusion in […]
