A method for discrete event simulation and building information modelling integration using a game engine (2018)
Journal Article
Sandoval, C. A. O., Tizani, W., & Koch, C. (2018). A method for discrete event simulation and building information modelling integration using a game engine. Advances in Computational Design, 3(4), 405-418. https://doi.org/10.12989/acd.2018.3.4.405

Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Discrete Event Simulation (DES) are tools widely used in the context of the construction industry. While BIM is used to represent the physical and functional characteristics of a facility, DES models are used...

A BIM-based model for constructability assessment of conceptual design (2018)
Journal Article
Fadoul, A., Tizani, W., & Kochc, C. (2018). A BIM-based model for constructability assessment of conceptual design. Advances in Computational Design, 3(4), 367-384. https://doi.org/10.12989/acd.2018.3.4.367

The consideration of constructability issues at the design stage can lead to improved construction performance with smooth project delivery and savings in time and money. Empirical studies demonstrate the value obtained by integrating construction kn... Read More about A BIM-based model for constructability assessment of conceptual design.

Experimental and numerical analysis of dynamic compressive response of Nomex honeycombs (2018)
Journal Article
Zhang, Y., Liu, T., & Tizani, W. (2018). Experimental and numerical analysis of dynamic compressive response of Nomex honeycombs. Composites Part B: Engineering, 148, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compositesb.2018.04.025

Lightweight phenolic resin-impregnated aramid paper honeycombs, commercially known as Nomex®honeycombs, are promising cores for sandwich structures in aerospace applications due to their high ratios of stiffness and strength to density. The out-of-pl... Read More about Experimental and numerical analysis of dynamic compressive response of Nomex honeycombs.
