In the past, people built their houses in harmony with the environment, while also optimally utilizing the building materials available locally. The traditional built form was climate-responsive; it evolved over centuries of experience and observations of climate and nature. The traditional local architecture of Lucknow (a North Indian historical city) has employed some ingenious natural and passive techniques to maintain thermal comfort within the building, particularly during the hottest hours of the day. In this paper, we discuss the traditional built form of Lucknow through the lens of its climatic appropriateness, especially during the hottest hours of the day. Methods: The research methodology involves the study of the thermal performance of two traditional houses and one modern dwelling unit in Lucknow during the climatic extremes, i.e. summer and winter, by means of on-site monitoring of temperature and relative humidity. Results and discussion: We have summarized the comparative analysis of the thermal performance of traditional houses and modern houses and drawn conclusions from the factors that are responsible for providing thermal comfort. The analysis shows that the use of natural and passive techniques in the traditional buildings of Lucknow is very effective in terms of providing a thermally comfortable space, warm in the winter and cool in the summer.","PeriodicalId":52295,"journal":{"name":"Architecture and Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41923696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this article, it is considered in the context of Lviv with the main focus on Jewish architects. Purpose of the study: We are planning to study the process of the emergence of a new Jewish style in the architecture of Lviv from the mid-19th century to the first decades of the 20th century in the context of urban development, and consider the formation of a characteristic art language, together with the corresponding symbolic elements of décor. Methods: We use a comprehensive art approach, which involves the method of systematization for material processing, comparison and synthesis. In the course of the study, we applied comparative analysis, as well as elements of systematic analysis of the Jewish architecture evolution. Results and discussion: We conclude that the architects used several strategies and theories to express Jewish cultural identity in their works, in particular, neo-romantic transformations of medieval, Renaissance and Oriental architecture, rethinking in the spirit of Art Nouveau of the Neo-Moorish style, incorporation of old regional architecture motifs, applying decor saturated with Jewish symbols.","PeriodicalId":52295,"journal":{"name":"Architecture and Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49544290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Purpose of the study: The authors seek to determine the mechanism of interaction between concrete and steel in the adhesion contact area, establish a relationship between external force action and crack development in the contact area. Methods: The authors suggest some dependencies to evaluate various test methods when determining the area where two materials, differing in physical characteristics, interact. Approximation to the actual phenomena related to the interaction between concrete and reinforcement, starting from the moment when through and non-through internal cracks form in the contact area and ending with destruction, is a general problem of models describing the adhesion of materials. Results: The theoretical results were compared with the experimental data and recommendations of modern regulatory documents, and it was found that they are in a satisfactory agreement. It was established that the difference of axial deformations of the bar and the surrounding concrete goes into the difference of bending displacements, which explains uneven load distribution across the protrusions. Discussion: Using the suggested dependencies, it is possible to predict crack development in the contact area of the reinforcement and cement binder as well as in the slip area in an extreme case. The concrete tensile strength in particular reinforcedconcrete elements in supporting cross-sections and with anchorage in tensile concrete represents a factor affecting the strength of the concrete-to-steel bond.","PeriodicalId":52295,"journal":{"name":"Architecture and Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48169699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the lack of a theoretical framework, which makes it impossible to control the quality of structures obtained, prevents it from being used in mass production. Methods: Adhesion properties largely depending on the cross-section area are one of the most important elements of the technology, which in some cases limit the strength characteristics of a resulting structure. Therefore, it is necessary to know adhesive strength characteristics (besides mechanical ones) of items manufactured using this technology. The paper addresses strength characteristics of a joint between the layers of the extruded material when a structure is manufactured by 3D printing. The authors experimentally determine a dependency of the ratio between the adhesive and mechanical strength on the layer printing time.

Even the community cohesion of the courtyard space was repeated and maintained in the township context, which neither belongs to agricultural nor working class but rather to educated elites with western zest. How has this unique feature been evolving and why is the appeal still the same today? Is the courtyard’s permeability just the ‘in-between space’ or was it derived from the aspiration of philosophical legacy? Methods: The study uses a twofold method derived from solid-void relationships. Firstly, eastern and western philosophical discourses were compared, and the extensive literature review is presented. Secondly, historical evidence and logics behind the courtyard’s position from micro to macro scale, from household to city formation is presented and analyzed in the philosophical context. Results and discussion: From a very complex lattice and layers related to architectural philosophy, two important figures of western world, Baudrillard and Foucault’s ideas proved crucial to comprehend how an image of the courtyard remained constant and how it is empowered as a core space from the socio-cultural and functional views.

Purpose of the study: The purpose of the study is to develop a conceptual foundation and a working hypothesis for the operation of unified lift-and-transport machinery with quantum thrust – UQLTM. Methods: The thrust vector is decomposed into orthogonal components. A generalized force balance equation and its modifications are used. Typical modes of QLTM motion are identified. 3D modeling of force balance with velocity sweeping is carried out. 3D models of force balance are developed using Maple software. Images of surfaces with regard to wind resistance and thrust vector dynamics are built. Calculations as well as graphical-and-analytical studies are performed. Results: The paper presents results of calculations with visualization using an example of container transportation from a consolidated terminal to the hold of a container ship with the use of QLTM. Discussion: Existing lift-and-transport machines can be replaced by transport machines equipped with QEs (QLTM), and thus it will be possible to make the area of traditional lift-and-transport machinery movement available. Lifting machines can also be replaced by QLTM. Moreover, several types of lift-andtransport machines as well as transport machines used at warehouses to handle cargo can be replaced by unified QLTM (UQLTM) providing continuous transportation of cargo (without any transshipment using different types of vehicles).","PeriodicalId":52295,"journal":{"name":"Architecture and Engineering","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48291886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
