Engineered Coatings Minimize Downtime, Improve Sanitation in Medical and Pharmaceutical Applications

January 5, 2018

Processing and packaging applications in the food and drug industries have many criteria in common because both industries must meet stringent standards developed to guarantee the utmost safety of products intended for human consumption. Production methods must also be as efficient and cost-effective as possible, maximizing throughput and minimizing downtime.

AI Data Engineering Lifecycle Checklist

whitePaper | May 12, 2022

Machine learning is powering most of the recent advancements in artificial intelligence including autonomous systems, computer vision, natural language processing, predictive analytics, and a wide range of applications among the seven patterns of AI. However, in order for these systems to be able to create accurate generalizations, these machine learning systems must be trained on data. The more advanced forms of machine learning, especially deep learning neural networks, require significant amounts of data to be able to create models with acceptable levels of accuracy.

HEALTHIER BUILDINGS KEEP EVERYONE HEALTHIER TOGETHER

whitePaper | June 30, 2021

Healthier spaces mean healthier people. The pandemic has given us all a chance to help rebuild the idea of healthy buildings from the ground up—not just until we make it through the pandemic, but long term. Keeping people safe now hinges on implementing a fact-based, expert developed, and dynamic approach to occupant wellness: one that helps mitigate both air and surface based viral transmission risks, while also increasing efficiencies and the financial health of your operations.

Realizing Connected Construction Promises: Unlocking Growth through Value Chain Digitization and Efficiency Monitoring

whitePaper | August 8, 2022

Engineering and construction (E&C) companies have traditionally accepted this volatility as a result of the inherent complexity of jobs: Construction projects bring together contractors, suppliers, equipment, labor, and global supply chains that are more precarious than ever. But one root problem is that most E&C companies are still trying to juggle this high level of complexity with a relatively low level of technology adoption. The construction industry lags far behind nearly all others in digitization, spending less than 2% of revenue on Information Technology

Digital Twin Cities: Framework and Global Practices

whitePaper | April 20, 2022

The continued growth and success of cities is one of the great triumphs of modern civilization. Cities are home to the majority of the world’s population and generate more than 80% of GDP. Rapid urbanization has also brought about new challenges as cities have struggled with congestion, pollution, increased carbon emissions, inequity and exposure to natural disasters such as floods and storms. The COVID-19 pandemic and climate change have further intensified these issues. The United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development sets out the goal of “building inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable cities and communities”. Whereas these goals may be universally accepted, the path to get there is not as clear. Innovation and empowerment of digital technology are critical to transforming our cities. Policy support and institutional change are also essential.

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

HOW EXPANSION JOINT EXPERTISE HELPS IMPROVE INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATER SYSTEM RELIABILITY

whitePaper | July 11, 2022

Nearly all industries have wastewater treatment plants. These facilities are designed to meet pretreatment requirements imposed by local or state governments. Pretreatment rules were enacted to prevent industrial discharges from affecting or passing through domestic wastewater treatment plants, so industry is seeing upgrades or new builds to comply. Wastewater piping systems are constructed from a variety of materials depending on the media flowing through the pipes. These pumping and piping systems can be complex, causing havoc and downtime when failures occur.
