Dynamic environmental control mechanisms for pneumatic foil constructions (2017)
Journal Article
Flor, J., Wu, Y., Beccarelli, P., & Chilton, J. (2017). Dynamic environmental control mechanisms for pneumatic foil constructions. E3S Web of Conferences, 22, https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20172200048

Membrane and foil structures have become over the last decades an attractive alternative to conventional materials and building systems with increasing implementation in different typologies and scale. The development of transparent, light, flexible... Read More about Dynamic environmental control mechanisms for pneumatic foil constructions.

Retrofitting of ETFE roofs (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Beccarelli, P., & Maffei, R. (2017). Retrofitting of ETFE roofs.

ETFE is one of the most stable chemical compounds and its films are largely employed in the building industry due to the very good long-term stability, resistance to soiling and high light transmittance. The mechanical strength is relatively good, es... Read More about Retrofitting of ETFE roofs.
