The research described in this thesis focuses on the production and use of additive manufactured silicate ceramic (clay) products in construction.
Additive Manufacturing (AM) is a technology that facilitates realising products by selective placement of material in subsequent layers. It is a technology that emerged in the 1980’s and has been adopted by many industries for prototyping and the realisation of special or individualised products, which cannot be made by use of common production processes or benefit economically by the use of AM.
The research shows a broad overview of AM...

This book reports on several advances in architectural graphics, with a special emphasis on education, training, and research. It gathers a selection of contributions to the 19th International Conference on Graphic Design in Architecture, EGA 2022, held on June 2–4, 2022, in Cartagena, Spain, with the motto: "Beyond drawings. The use of architectural graphics".

In diesem Open-Access-Buch wird gezeigt, dass die Tragfähigkeit evolventisch basierter Zahnwellenverbindungen auf geradezu revolutionäre Art und Weise gesteigert werden kann, wenn für ihre Realisierung nicht das System zur Bezugsprofilgenerierung der [DIN 5480], sondern das in dieser Dissertation neu entwickelte, hoch innovative System zur Profilgenerierung zugrunde gelegt wird. Mit ihm werden, wie mit umfangreichsten Studien belegt wird, die Gestaltfestigkeitsgrenzen nicht nur verschoben, sondern völlig neu definiert. Des Weiteren werden Näherungsgleichungen zur Beschreibung der...
