Topology optimisation : a case study (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Fenci, G., Currie, N., & Hardie, G. (2017, April). Topology optimisation : a case study. Presented at IABSE Conference – Creativity and Collaboration, Bath, UK

Parametric and computational design play a major role in contemporary architecture and engineering. Designers need no longer conform to predetermined shapes and sections, but are given freedom to explore new geometries and structural forms. An exampl...

Reliability analysis and disproportionate collapse for multi storey cross-laminated timber building (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Mpidi Bita, H., Currie, N., & Tannert, T. (2017, January). Reliability analysis and disproportionate collapse for multi storey cross-laminated timber building. Presented at 16th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering, 16WCEE, Santiago, Chile

This paper focuses on developing finite element models and subsequent sensitivity and reliability analyses to evaluate the probability of disproportionate collapse of a twelve-storey case study Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) building, following extreme...
