  • Automatic Minimization of the Rigidity Eccentricity of 3D Reinforced Concrete Buildings 

    Lagaros, Nikolaos D.; Papadrakakis, Nikolaos; Bakas, Nikolaos (Taylor & Francis, 2007)
    The objective of this paper is to obtain the optimum design of 3D reinforced concrete buildings in terms of their performance under earthquake loading. This goal is achieved by considering the minimization of the ...

  • Building houses with bacteria 

    Bakas, Nikolaos; Piero Tiano, Linda Wittig (2014-10-20)
    Houses of the future could be partially built with bacteria. It sounds like science fiction but researchers involved in an EU-backed project in Madrid are working towards making this a concrete reality.

  • Optimum Design Approaches for Improving the Seismic Performance of 3D RC Buildings 

    Lagaros, Nikolaos D.; Bakas, Nikolaos; Papadrakakis, Manolis (Taylor & Francis, 2009-03-28)
    In this article, a number of design approaches for 3D reinforced concrete (RC) buildings are formulated in the framework of structural optimization problems and are assessed in terms of their performance under earthquake ...
