A Research Roadmap for Off-Site Construction: Automation and Robotics (2019)

The development of a research roadmap was undertaken to further the activities of a joint industry-university-government initiative in off-site construction research in Canada. The roadmap identifies the general research areas of structural design, construction materials, building science, advanced manufacturing, logistics and transportation, automation and robotics, and digitized construction. The development of the roadmap included a broad literature review of peer reviewed academic journals,

Displacement analysis of a geogrid-reinforced retaining wall with modular precast concrete facing (2024)

Reinforced earth retaining walls are widely used in transportation projects, such as embankments, bridge access roads, and bridge abutments. When the wall height is large, the weight of the embankment soil and vehicle loads can cause large wall displacements, thereby affecting the serviceability of the wall system. Although many retaining wall projects use wall-facing structures assembled from precast concrete components, most domestic studies have focused on continuous reinforced concrete wall-

CONSTRUÇÃO OFF-SITE NA ARQUITETURA HOSPITALAR: UM ESTUDO DE CASO SOBRE A QUALIDADE DA CONSTRUÇÃO VOLUMÉTRICA MODULAR (2025)

Este artigo faz parte da dissertação de mestrado do autor e tem ênfase nas técnicas da Construção Volumétrica Modular aplicada em hospitais, por meio de um estudo de caso. A relevância da técnica aplicada aos hospitais deu-se com o advento da pandemia, no ano de 2020, esta técnica de montagem rápida, já difundida e consolidada no mercado residencial e de serviços (hotéis e escritórios), tem sua atenção e aplicação voltadas para a área hospitalar em atendimento à demanda imediata por leitos de in

Case Study: Off-site manufacturing of EIFS Panelized Wall Assemblies to Gain Efficiency in Construction Sequencing (2019)

This paper examines the process of constructing modular EIFS (exterior insulation and finish system) panelized wall assemblies in a manufacturing environment. The research observed the preparation required, manufacturing procedures applied, measured task times at dedicated work stations and identified bottlenecks that factor into the comprehensive approach to planning and building the exterior envelope off-site. The paper summarizes the results of 70,000 SF of EIFS panels manufactured over 70 da

Celecoxib added to mood stabilizer for treating acute mania in bipolar disorder: A randomized, double -blind, placebo-controlled trial in IRAN (2021)

Abstract Background: Inflammatory processes in the brain contribute to the aetiopathogenesis of acute mania. Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors, such as Celecoxib, reduce the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. The purpose of the present investigation was to assess the efficacy of Celecoxib in the treatment of acute mania.Methods: We conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial at the Specialty in-patient Clinic of Ibn-e-Sina Hospital [Mashhad University of Medical Sciences,

Considering a Potential Role of Linalool as a Mood Stabilizer for Bipolar Disorder (2020)

Epidemiologic studies suggest that the lifetime prevalence of bipolar spectrum disorders ranges from 2.8 to 6.5 percent of the population. To decrease morbidity and mortality associated with disease progression, pharmacologic intervention is indicated for the majority of these patients. While a number of effective treatment regimens exist, many conventional medications have significant side effect profiles that adversely impact patients’ short and long-term well-being. It is thus important to

Dual-Functional UiO-66/NH₂/Fe₂O₃//Activated Carbon Hybrid for Integrated Energy Storage and Hydrogen Production (2026)

Amino-functionalized zirconium-based metal–organic framework (MOF) incorporated with iron oxide (UiO-66/NH2/Fe2O3) was synthesized via a hydrothermal method. This composite demonstrates significant potential for energy storage applications, particularly in supercapacitors (SCs), owing to its rapid charge discharge kinetics, long-term cycling stability, and high efficiency. The integration of UiO-66/NH2 with Fe2O3 enhances pseudocapacitive behavior and battery-type performance, leveraging the red

Vegetative growth of Cannabis sativa L. cultivars in Jamaica using 18/6 photoperiod (2020)

Geographic isolation coupled with human selection of Cannabis sativa L. has given rise to the subspecies Cannabis sativa L. subspecies sativa and indica. Plant breeders have cross-pollinated the two subspecies sativa and indica which are considered to be Cannabis hybrids. The therapeutic and medical values of these subspecies are distinct in their applications for a cannabis consumer. The photo sensitive nature of cannabis allows for the manipulation of extending the vegetative cycle for cannabi
