The troweling of wall space is an essential decorative process and the development of wall-troweling robots, which are expected to release labors from the burdensome pargeting tasks, is growing to be a promising sector in todays architectural industry. In this paper, a static analysis is conducted for the key components of troweling disk and vertical guiderail, based on the proposed virtual prototype of wall-troweling robots. The stress distribution across these components provides a sound basis for the structural design. With the finite element analysis module of SolidWorks package, the paper investigates the modal characteristics of the key components operating under practical conditions. The research effort in this paper is contributive to the design and manufacturing of wall-troweling robots.

Low Speed Wind Tunnel

AbstractA chamberless HLFC leading edge segment featuring an outer skin with variable porosity has been designed, manufactured and wind tunnel tested under flight Reynolds-number conditions. The aerodynamic design involved the extention of current HLFC design routines to variable pressure loss characteristics of the outer skin. Advanced options for structural design and manufacturing solutions with focus on industrialization, arising from the avoidance of aerodynamically driven chambering, are explored. The leading edge segment has been installed on an existing vertical tail-plane model and tested at the large low-speed wind-tunnel facility DNW-LLF. The design process and some results of the successful verification of the chamberless design are presented herein.

America’S Cup

The new America's Cup Class Rule specifies a modern, light weight, fast monohull sloop somewhere between an IOR Maxi and an ULDB. The performance of the boat will be highly sensitive to weight, thus there is a premium on optimization of the structure. The structural section of the rule calls for a thin skin sandwich laminate with minimum skin and core thicknesses and densities, as well as maximum core thickness, fiber modulus, and laminate cure temperatures. This paper presents the initial phases of material selection, structural analysis and design, and manufacturing engineering in the development of a competitive America's Cup Class Yacht.

New Buildings

The growing need for new buildings and the soaring resources depletion call for a new way of considering the building material. As follows, the principle of recycling and reuse keep gaining in consideration as a pertinent strategy to address those issues, inciting the use of new materials and approaches for structural design. The present paper inscribes in this later framework and proposes a method for structural design and manufacturing out of old magazines using a broadly known physical phenomenon of friction in interleaved assemblies. The proposed method consist of a stock-based form-finding strategy for a net-like structure, based on the mechanical and fabrication-aware considerations with an integration of a geodesic constrain control for the rectilinear paper strips. In closing, a demonstration pavilion is built using the developed method and its further potential applications in construction sector are discussed.

Significant Effort

In the recent decades, the vehicle lighweighting problem has been addressed through various methodologies by different researchers and industries. Significant effort has been made recently to develop lightweight structural solutions by employing state-of-the-art and emerging materials, manufacturing processes and technologies. The presented research aimed to investigate the possibility of designing vehicle lightweight structures using advanced steel grades and novel structural profiles developed by industry by integrating smart design and manufacturing solutions. A case study was developed in the presented paper on a freight wagon structure. The structural stress analysis of the new lightweight design has been carried out through Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for validating the proposed solutions. The FEA considered the standard loading scenarios, taking into account both the static and dynamic operational loads, and the results were evaluated against the traditional design of a similar benchmark homologated vehicle. The results demonstrate that novel steel products can be successfully employed for designing sustainable and feasible lightweight vehicle structures.
