Load bearing/energy storage integrated devices (LEIDs) allow using structural parts to store energy, and thus become a promising solution boost the overall energy density of mobile systems, such as electric cars drones. Herein, with new high-strength solid electrolyte, we prepare practical high-performance load-bearing/energy electrochemical capacitors excellent mechanical strength (flexural modulus: 18.1 GPa, flexural strength: 160.0 MPa) high ability (specific capacitance: 32.4 mF cm-2,...
People management has been recognized as key to implementing building information modeling (BIM). This study aimed identify the critical factors hindering and driving BIM implementation in terms of people management, present theoretical rationale behind these using a proposed organizational change framework, provide strategies enhance implementation. Twenty-four hindrances 13 drivers for were identified from literature review. The results questionnaire survey 84 experts Singapore postsurvey...
Abstract Maneuver of conducting polymers (CPs) into lightweight hydrogels can improve their functional performances in energy devices, chemical sensing, pollutant removal, drug delivery, etc. Current approaches for the manipulation CP are limited, and they mostly accompanied by harsh conditions, tedious processing, compositing with other constituents, or using unusual chemicals. Herein, a two‐step route is introduced controllable fabrication ambient where gelation shape‐anisotropic...
Although building information modelling (BIM) has been implemented in projects Singapore, barriers such as the duplicate efforts for designers and contractors to create models appear exist. Thus, BIM implementation needs be enhanced. The objectives are identify critical success factors (CSFs) enhancing implementation investigate interrelationships among these CSFs. 32 were identified through a literature review questionnaire survey was conducted. results indicated that 15 CSFs grouped into...
Building information modelling (BIM) implementation has been mandated in the Singapore construction industry, but it is still plagued with challenges such as lack of contractor input design models. Thus, industry needs changes BIM implementation. This study aims to identify critical drivers for change (CDCs) towards full implementation, demonstrate theoretical rational behind CDCs, and formulate strategies strengthen CDCs. Conducting a questionnaire survey 86 professionals, this identified...
Porous materials with multiple hierarchy levels can be useful as lightweight engineering structures, biomedical implants, flexible functional devices, and thermal insulators. Numerous routes have integrated bottom-up top-down approaches for the generation of nature, complex excellent mechanical properties. It nonetheless remains challenging to generate ultralight porous hierarchical architectures multi-functionality. Here, combined strategy based on Pickering emulsions additive manufacturing...
The use of building information modeling (BIM) has been mandated by the Singapore government, but at same time, non-value-adding (NVA) implementation practices are prevalent. However, little is known about factors contributing to NVA BIM from different stakeholders' viewpoints. This study aims identify leading contributors activities in BIM-based project delivery Singapore, compare perceptions among stakeholders with roles, firm sizes, and experience, propose strategies for activity...
Although the Singapore government has mandated submissions of building plans in information modelling (BIM) format since July 2013, this does not yet seem to lead enhanced productivity performance. BIM collaboration between designers and downstream contractors appears remain inadequate. While many studies have been conducted on using for better project outcomes, that relate with identification non-value adding activities lifecycle reduction resulting wastes are at infancy stage. This paper...
The Singaporean government has made building information modeling (BIM) implementation mandatory in new projects with gross floor areas over 5000 m2, but the is still plagued hindrances such as lacking project-wide collaboration. purposes of this study are to identify critical factors hindering BIM Singapore’s construction industry, analyze their interrelationships, and strategies for reducing these hindrances. results from a survey 87 experts five post-survey interviews industry identified...
This study aimed to ascertain the research status of complexity issues in building information modeling (BIM) diffusion and identify future directions this field. A total 366 relevant journal articles were holistically evaluated. The visualization analysis indicated that management aspects, emergent trends (such as green building, facility management, automation), theme clusters interoperability, waste laser scanning, stakeholder energy efficiency) are shaping BIM towards complexity. Areas...
Purpose Problems such as information asymmetry and a lack of trust among construction practitioners damage the quality progress projects. The decentralization, transparency, traceability temper-proof nature blockchain technology (BCT) can provide solutions facilitate multiparty cooperation. However, BCT acceptance in industry is relatively low, there are few pilot projects adopting BCT. Most relevant literature focuses on at organizational levels, but impact non-managerial executing or...
Addressing the issues caused by urbanization through urban vitality theory has elicited increasing attention in social environment research. However, few studies focus on itself, such as generative mechanism of (GMUV) and identification key factors to improvement. Therefore, a new insight into is presented this study exploration GMUV based partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). Concretely, improvement are analyzed identified nighttime lights data, points interest,...
