Women in STEM

May 20, 2018

A girl’s motivation to pursue a Core STEM career can be influenced by self-confidence, stereotypes, educational environment, the perceived attractiveness of the sector and social factors including peers, parents, the presence of role models and media. Girls have lower levels of self- confidence in their ability than boys in mathematics and science and are less likely to continue in STEM education or pursue STEM careers, even within the context where they outperform boys.

HARDWARE-SOFTWARE COLLABORATION DRIVES THE FUTURE OF CAE

whitePaper | March 31, 2022

Today’s product design engineers challenge the limits of computing with computer-aided engineering (CAE) applications. By accelerating the process of pinpointing design flaws and producing higher-quality, better-performing products, these applications enable manufacturers to improve designs and reduce time to market. The key to improving CAE performance and reaching key insights faster is a combination of specific 3rd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors suited for CAE workloads, the HPE Apollo 2000 Gen10 Plus scale-out server, and close collaboration between Intel®, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), and CAE application vendors

Parametric Modeling Innovates Bridge Design

whitePaper | January 6, 2020

Bridge design is no simple matter. While traditional 3D modeling software is useful for buildings, these structures don’t present the same challenges that bridge design does. Jalpesh Patel, Senior Technical Consultant with Allplan explains why: Buildings are mainly linear, vertical structures with minimal to no obstruction. Bridges, on the other hand, are non-linear, horizontal structures that must weave through obstacles, existing structures, and multiple right-ofway restrictions.

Modern Methods Of Construction 2023

whitePaper | March 14, 2023

MMC is ultimately about improving efficiency and productivity in both design and in construction. It is widely known that construction has a substantial productivity gap compared to many other sectors and MMC has been suggested as one of the methods to tackle this challenge. Although described as a “product-led” type of construction, MMC is also about developing the manufacturing processes and how these processes are executed.

Advanced construction enterprise platform

whitePaper | September 11, 2022

Construction projects often feel like different worlds governed by different rules, flows, regulations, and procedures – but with a single, common goal. The goal is clear but getting there proves much more difficult than it should be. That’s why we decided to sync and empower them to move forward at the same pace right from the start. Constream is a suite of connected modules, where each one is focused on recreating a specific construction management process and serving solutions to day-to-day problems. Our ecosystem is designed with blockchain technology at its core in order to exploit the full potential of decentralization and fragmentation of the construction industry. Why revolutionize something that only needs to evolve?

Microclimate Simulation for Urban Design

whitePaper | June 9, 2022

The built environment needs continuous adaptation to global population changes, the adverse effects of climate change, and evolving occupant requirements. To meet these evolving challenges, architects and engineers require access to highfidelity design simulation tools to accurately predict complex behavior in buildings and cities. SimScale enables architects and engineers to integrate physics-based simulation into their entire design workflow starting from the earliest stages where critical design decisions are made. Rapid assessments of the microclimate impacts on design for example, are now possible using the simple and intuitive workflow in SimScale

The Top 5 Most Over-Engineered Building Components

whitePaper | November 14, 2019

When specifying the mechanical and electrical equipment for a building, it is easy to assume that extra capacity is a good thing, but it actually can be just as counterproductive as having undersized installations. In the first place, extra capacity comes at a higher upfront cost, which makes the building owner assume unnecessary expenses. There are also many types of equipment that experience performance issues when over-engineered, which can range from low energy efficiency to a diminished service life.
