Concrete is a fundamental material in construction, but its production, particularly the manufacturing of cement as a binding agent, is a significant source of CO₂ emissions, contributing  to global climate change. With the continued demand for concrete in infrastructure development, there is an urgent need to identify and implement sustainabl...

Koenigs meshes should be more explored in the field of architectural design due to their various fabrication efficiency factors for doubly curved grid-shells. Beside being planar quad meshes (PQ-meshes) they have additional property of duality and are closely linked to graphical statics: their diagonals and those of their dual mesh represent form a...

Because of their construction efficiency, regular tessellations are standardly applied in the design of discrete spatial structures. However, digital fabrication enables the application of intricate patterns that may be structurally even more rational, such as patterns based on isostatic (principal stress) lines or the application of patterns inspi...

In order to ensure the durability of masonry structures, prevent their deterioration and serious damage, it is necessary to carry out regular inspections of the condition of building elements. Determining the condition of masonry structures is most often done manually, by visual inspection, which is a time-consuming process, the quality of which la...

The primary goal of this paper is to develop a mathematical model that describes groundwater flow within a porous medium. By employing mathematical modelling techniques for fluid flow analysis, valuable insights can be gained into complex flow conditions that are often difficult to assess using conventional analytical methods. Given that the spatia...
