Exoskeleton Design

The past few decades have witnessed a rapid explosion in research surrounding robotic exoskeletons due to their promising applications in medicine and human performance augmentation. Several advances in technology have led to the development of more energy efficient and viable prototypes of these devices. However, despite this rapid advancement in exoskeleton technology, most of the developed devices are limited to laboratory testing and a very few of them are commercially available for human use. This chapter discusses the advances in various constituting technologies including actuation, sensing, materials, and controls that made exoskeleton research feasible. Also presented are case studies on two state-of-the-art robotic exoskeletons, Harmony and Maestro, developed for rehabilitation of the upper body. The chapter concludes with a discussion on the ongoing challenges in exoskeleton design and ethical, social, and legal considerations related to the use of these devices and the future of exoskeletons.

Energy Retrofit

One of the main targets of SHC Task 59 is to provide a solid knowledge base on deep renovation of historic buildings. The Historic Building Energy Retrofit Atlas (HiBERatlas, www.hiberatlas.com) provides a bestpractice database of exemplary energy efficient  interventions in historic buildings. The database presents bestpractice examples of how a historic building can be renovated to achieve high levels of energy efficiency while respecting and protecting its heritage significance.

Criteria For Selection

Green skyscrapers and their design have now become a crucial point, for that, many architects, engineers and designers are being involved in green buildings and skyscraper practices. This research paper is based upon the importance of rating systems especially LEED as worldwide and why it is compulsory now to have LEED rating systems for skyscrapers along with the sustainable development goals achieved by them. It mainly covers the points needed for clarifying LEED rating with its criteria for selection depending upon its credit categories and its impact in the built environment. The case studies mainly covers detailed study of LEED Platinum rated skyscrapers and techniques used to make it a green high rise building. All the 3 high rise buildings have different typologies and timeline through which we can study each building depending upon techniques used during each time. Through this study we can analyse gaps and strengths of LEED rated high-rise buildings with some recommendations. The statistical comparative study shows varying credit categories and study of different energy efficiencies of each building. We also come to know about how much energy efficient is each building in our case studies and what techniques are used to make it more energy efficient.
