Semantic Segmentation of 3D Building Facade Point Clouds Using Dynamic Graph CNN

The 3D point cloud representation of building holds significant importance in developing a comprehensive smart city model. However, due to the substantial volume of point cloud data and its inherently unstructured nature, accomplishing semantic segmentation of the point cloud poses a formidable challenge. Recent years have witnessed substantial...

Reviving rivers: Regenerative decontamination design for industries in the N.W.E DELTA region

Although the industrial release of pollutant substances into North West European river delta has been decreasing over the last decades, The Netherlands still has one of the worst water qualities in Europe. In this strategic regional design we aim to improve the quality, quantity and distribution of water through the concept of sustainable land...

The Impact of the Sociological Role of the Stakeholder on the Sustainability of the Economic Benefits of Cultural Heritage Transformation: the Cockatoo Island as an Example

Waterfront cultural heritage has unique historical, scientific, social and aesthetic values that can provide an excellent platform and starting point for urban design. The Cockatoo Island has significant differences in these values, which make it complex and contradictory in the subsequent tourism-oriented transformation, and even create a...

Critical Proof Load for Proof Load Testing of Concrete Bridges based on Scripted FEM Analysis

Bridges with different geometrical configurations have been searched with linear finite element analysis. The aim is to find the position and value of critical proof load. Four different parameters, namely span length, width, skewness and thickness ratio, their influence on proof load are found. In total, 166 sets of data are obtained by...
