Students were asked to provide a an elegant, lightweight, structurally sound design with lofty views, thermal and visual comfort, high levels of natural light, energy efficiency, and energy production.
The design optimization of flexible hydrofoils and propellers requires coupled hydrodynamic and structural analysis to achieve truly optimal, physically realizable, and structurally sound designs.
Energized by the recent rapid progress in high-performance computing and the growing availability of large computational resources, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is offering a cost-effective, versatile and accurate means to improve the understanding of the unsteady aerodynamics of Darrieus wind turbines, increase their efficiency and deliver more cost-effective and structurally sound designs.
The women who built our tanks, guns, ammunition and planes during World War II would argue that women are able and willing to swing a hammer, operate a crane or design a structurally sound bridge.
"The nice part of my job is that I don't have to do any of the engineering," he said, adding that in addition to making sure that an architect's design can be constructed in a structurally sound manner, the manufacturer's engineers will ensure that the finished product will meet or exceed the building codes where the house is to be built.
By adding steel fibre to recycled aggregate, a structurally sound material can be obtained.
"We had to build it in a structurally sound way to withstand the rotor wash of the helicopters.
I'm sure there are all sorts of valuable lessons I learned along the way; self-discipline, patience, teamwork, why sugar is not a structurally sound building material.
We cannot waver from using ice and snow to build a structurally sound igloo.
It took about a year to develop a structurally sound prototype.
