A Mass Optimisation Study of the Lunar Zebro Chassis

A prototype lunar rover is in development by students of the TU Delft since 2017. It is a nanorover based on the terrestrial ZeBRo design, now named the Lunar Zebro. The Lunar Zebro is a prototype design as a proof of concept for nanorover capabilities. With a chassis of 200 by 140 by 60 millimeters, fitting on a sheet of A5 paper, the Lunar...

Optimisation of complex geometry buildings based on wind load analysis

One result of climate change is the increasing strength and frequency of wind events. This creates a problem for the also increasing number of high-rise buildings many of which are of unconventional shape. However, current methods for calculating wind response either do not account for these geometries, such as the Eurocode or are prohibitively...
