MIT aims to make house construction more sustainable by using discarded plastics to print structural components.
The MIT HAUS team is pioneering 3D-printed floor trusses from recycled plastic, aiming to revolutionize sustainable construction with lightweight materials.
3D printing is transforming single-use trash into permanent infrastructure. Engineers at MIT are successfully ...
Engineers at MIT have developed a process for 3D printing construction-grade structural elements using recycled plastic ...
Seeking to define more robust and executable structures, this article presents a computational framework for the optimal design of steel truss frames, which integrates two software of great prominence ...
MIT engineers are using recycled plastic to 3D print construction-grade beams, trusses, and other structural elements that could one day offer lighter, modular, and more sustainable alternatives to ...
Abstract: This two-part paper studies a point-to-point resonant beam communication (RBCom) system, where two separately deployed retroreflectors are adopted to generate the resonant beam between the ...
Abstract: This article focuses on the geometric optimization of the cantilever beam to improve energy harvesting. The full-cosine arc-shaped notched beam is intended to distribute stress more ...
