The Princeton University course on German thin-shell structures in fall 2012 that resulted in the exhibition "Evolution of German Shells: Efficiency in Form" was co-taught by Sigrid Adriaenssens and ...

Sigrid Adriaenssens and Branko Glišić, assistant professors of civil and environmental engineering at Princeton University, co-taught a course on German thin-shell structures in the fall of 2012 that ...

Thin shell structures are widely used in high-performance engineering due to their favorable strength-to-weight characteristics and capacity for distributed load-bearing. However, traditional ...

A structure is a 3D shape made from different materials and parts. Structures are designed and made to be strong, stable and sturdy. This means that they will not break or fall over easily. There’s ...

A team of researchers reports developing a nanocrystal structure capable of controlling catalysis with the pores of a skin-like membrane that can accept or reject molecules based on their size or ...
