TRUSS STRUCTURES IN CONSTRUCTIONS
Journal Title: Journal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics - Year 2015, Vol 10, Issue 2
Abstract
The paper presents how truss structures can be used in building different types of spatial constructions. The authors are presenting a documented history of truss structures, through time, from simple to complex structural systems. The presentation starts with the most common and simple structure, the planar truss system, and moves on until the more complex cylindrical and double curvature systems.

DEEP EMPATHIC DESIGN
Empathic design is often described as a creative process that translates observations - typically of people and their behaviours into design ideas. Another similar and closely related expression is user centred design, w...
ASPECTS REGARDING THE METHODS IN DESCRIPTIVE GEOMETRY
The paper presents some practical rules used in one of the most used method in descriptive geometry, the folding method applied for a point and a line without building the position triangle. These simple considerations c...
ASPECTS REGARDING THE ROTOR BLADE GEOMETRY
The consumers’ energy needs and the variable wind potential have led the wind turbine producers to construct turbines that could efficiently operate in an as wide as possible range of wind speed power and domain. The rot...
