More than 2,000 earthquakes or rather 60% of the earthquakes worldwide and 30% of Tsunamis happen in Japan. As it has been proved by the March 2011 earthquake (strength: 9,0) once more, Japan has developed highly advanced earthquake resistance technologies. Although the earthquake caused a devastating Tsunami, there was no damage by the earthquake...

... The pagoda system, inspired by high seismic performance of old-built pagoda structures, is one of the most powerful design structures which reacts positively when they face earthquake (Bock et al., 2011;Hanazato et al., 2012;Ueda et al., 1996;Wu et al., 2018). Fujita et al. (2004) discussed on the seismic performance of traditional timber five-story pagoda based on the results of microtremor measurement, free vibration test, and earthquake response monitoring. ...
The design and performance evaluation of a self-controlled system are investigated. An autonomous set of pendulums with different branches is considered. A mathematical model is derived, and the damping mechanism due to the transfer of energy between the central column and its attached branches is pointed out. The case of earthquake loads has been tested. Dynamics study shows that the energy received by the central column is distributed to the different branches, leading to a self-vibration control of the system. It is also found that one can increase the damping ratio according to the physical characteristics of the structure. This is a good candidate for earthquake protection of mechanical structures.
... Masonry buildings are constructed by robots that lay bricks three times as fast as humans [20]. Robotic systems are being developed to autonomously construct steel beam buildings, including high-rise buildings [21]. ...
The national space programs have an historic opportunity to help solve the global-scale economic and environmental problems of Earth while becoming more effective at science through the use of space resources. Space programs will be more cost-effective when they work to establish a supply chain in space, mining and manufacturing then replicating the assets of the supply chain itself so it grows to larger capacity. This has become achievable because of advances in robotics and artificial intelligence. It is roughly estimated that developing a lunar outpost that relies upon and also develops the supply chain will cost about 1/3 or less of the existing annual budgets of the national space programs. It will require a sustained commitment of several decades to complete, during which time science and exploration become increasingly effective. At the end, this space industry will capable of addressing global-scale challenges including limited resources, clean energy, economic development, and preservation of the environment. Other potential solutions, including nuclear fusion and terrestrial renewable energy sources, do not address the root problem of our limited globe and there are real questions that they may be inadequate or too late. While industry in space likewise cannot provide perfect assurance, it is uniquely able to solve the root problem, and it gives us an important chance that we should grasp. What makes this such an historic opportunity is that the space-based solution is obtainable for free, because it comes as a side-benefit of doing space science and exploration within their existing budgets. Thinking pragmatically, it may take some time for policymakers to agree that setting up a complete supply chain is an achievable goal, so this paper describes a strategy of incremental progress.
... Individual aspects of deploying innovation in construction industry as the concept of creating innovation by developing technologies for extreme environments (Linner & Bock, 2010) and by transferring technologies between ship building and construction industry (Bock et al., 2011a) have been explored by the authors. Additionally, the authors have analyzed the possibility of deploying advanced construction technology (Bock et al., 2011b) and product and service innovation within the construction industry (Linner & Bock, 2012). Although individual aspects of innovation in construction have been discussed a comprehensive framework that can be used for the systemic classification and generation of innovation in the construction industry has not been developed yet. ...
In the computer industry, as well as, in the automotive industry, the pace of innovation is already so rapid that within a few years a complete system or technology change can occur. Both industries steadily advance the performance of their products, meanwhile prices remain stable or even decrease. In relation to those industries, especially in construction industry we observe a low speed of innovation, increasing cost and the lack of analysis in construction specific innovation mechanisms. Despite a multitude of strategies and tools for technology, change and innovation management have been developed by innovation science in general, construction specific systemic tools and innovation deployment strategies had not yet been in the focus of research. The authors, therefore, started to build up a new research field that they called "Innovation Deployment Strategies" and systematically analyzed tools and innovation methods, (not construction specific), and innovation mechanisms that can be observed within construction industry, (construction specific), in order to be able to develop a construction specific innovation deployment view. As an outcome of their research the authors have developed the 7-DCI Diagram (Dimension Construction Innovation Diagram), a view on innovation in construction with the aim to provide a framework being able to support researchers and practitioners alike in identifying and generating innovation mechanisms fast and efficient, thus building the basis for a more changeable and flexible construction industry.
Dieses Kapitel beschreibt Automation und Digitalisierung im Stahlbau, Digitalisierung und Automatisierung, Informationsmanagement in der Bauproduktion, Aktuelle Programmierparadigmen im Kontext der Bauanwendung und Mensch‐Roboter‐Interaktion und ‐Kollaboration. Industrie 4.0 wird auch als vierte industrielle Revolution bezeichnet, wobei die umfassende Integration von Informations‐Technologien (IT), Cloud‐Technologien, Cyber‐Physischen Systemen (CPS) und dem Internet der Dinge (IoT) im Vordergrund stehen. Gebäudeinformationsmanagement (BIM) konzentriert sich auf den Prozess der Datenakkumulation für die Planung von Gebäuden. Je nach Hersteller verwendet jede Robotersteuerung eine eigene domänenspezifische Programmiersprache (DSL). Im Bereich der programmmodellbasierten Roboterprogrammierung bezieht sich der Begriff Modell auf ein Softwaremodell, dessen Darstellung und Form in Abhängigkeit vom verwendeten Standard definiert wird. Für die Konfiguration, Einrichtung und Online‐Programmierung eines Roboters reichen die typischerweise genutzten Geräte vom Touchpanel mit 6DoF‐Maus bis hin zum Tablet‐PC. A. Das Hauptziel für den Einsatz von Robotik in der Bauindustrie ist die Mediation zwischen Planungs‐ und Ausführungsphasen in Bauprojekten.
