Estimating Deformations of Laboratory Structures Subjected to Loadings Using Images Collected with Phone Camerase by Rolands Kromanis in Trends in Civil Engineering and its Architecture in Lupine Publishers

A Fundamental civil engineering knowledge is the ability to understand, explain and calculate deformations of/in civil structures. New civil engineers acquire this knowledge at universities in material science, engineering mechanics and introduction to structural engineering modules. Structural deformations can be calculated when knowing material properties, geometry and boundary conditions of a structure and loads that are applied on/to it. Inverse engineering can be employed if deformations of a structure are known, but some other parameters are not known. Theoretical formulae are then tested using laboratory test beds, usually beams. Laboratory technicians are responsible for the acquisition of deformation measurements of laboratory tests.

The Role of Engineering Design in the Infection Control for Hospitals: (TCEIA) - Lupine Publishers

The Role of Engineering Design in the Infection Control for Hospitals by Bruno Perazzo Pedroso Barbosa* in Trends in Civil Engineering and its Architecture (TCEIA) in Lupine Publishers

Hospital buildings are designed with intrinsic features for infection control, and are related to an intensive energy use. The infection control program is structured in a hierarchy of administrative, engineering and PPE controls. Building design plays a major role, because it must not only incorporate the systems that are responsible for infection's engineering controls, but also the features demanded by the administrative controls. Basic understanding of the infection control hierarchy and strategies and stringent communication with the HICC in the design phase is necessary, not only to provide a healthy and safe environment, but to achieve rational solutions that minimize the complexity, operational and maintenance costs. This review paper contributes with basic information about these topics, and presents references for detailed and advanced information.
