Satellite Radar Interferometry, also known as Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is an active remote sensing technique used in the EAC industry for developing topogra[...]
Since its introduction in 1961 to track satellites, tripod-based lidar scanners have been used by surveyors to develop high-resolution maps. The 3D scanning technology continues to[...]
With the changes brought on by increased globalization, more and more areas – some that were traditionally very homogenous, like suburbs – are seeing shifts to an extremely diverse[...]
As more and more structures reach old age, structural health monitoring systems are becoming more important to our safety. These new monitoring systems create massive amounts of da[...]
Since 1959, there have been two official versions of the foot used in land surveying – the U.S. survey foot and the international foot. In 2022 the U.S,. survey foot will be offici[...]
Building Information Modelling, or BIM, was first conceptualized in the 1970s. Since then, BIM has become a widely used approach in the AEC industry. Research is being done to stre[...]
Structures like bridges and railways play a vital role in communities and monitoring their structural health is a key aspect of public safety. Traditionally, that has been a labori[...]
Since the beginning of recorded time, river deltas have played an important role in human history. Ancient human civilizations began thanks to the Nile and the Tigris-Euphrates del[...]
Water treatment is very important for public health. Cleaning the water protects us from dangerous pathogens and other threats – including heavy metals. There are many different me[...]
Traditionally, structural and construction materials have been reinforced using synthetic fibers, such as geosynthetics, polymer fibers, and metallic fibers. Most of these are petr[...]
The study of the way substances interact is the basis for many fields of science and engineering, e.g., how chemicals interact is the basis for chemical engineering. The fluid-stru[...]
Engineers have been stabilizing the ground for centuries – even the Romans did it – but all the common methods used today come at a high cost and aren’t very envi[...]
