Application of Digital Photogrammetry for Measuring Deformation and Cracks during Load Tests in Civil Engineering Material Testing

Methods of digital photogrammetry depict a suitable tool for the automatic measurement of twoand three-dimensional displacements fields, deformations and surface defects such as cracks of test objects and structures during short and long time load tests. The paper gives an overview on recent research and development activities in the field of civil engineering material testing, conducted by the...

Where we are with point-of-care testing

Viral hepatitis claims one million lives each year. Scaling up treatment for hepatitis B and C in resource-limited settings is not possible without access to reliable diagnostic tools. This article gives an overview of current technologies and the pipeline for easy-to-use assays for serological and virological analyses, which can be performed at the site of patient care ('point-of-care assays')...

Load Control Using Building Thermal Mass

This paper provides an overview of research related to use of building thermal mass for shifting and reducing peak cooling loads in commercial buildings. The paper presents background on the concept and the problem of optimizing zone temperature setpoints and provides specific results that have been obtained through simulations, controlled laboratory testing, and field studies. The studies have...
