Das 5. Symposium Baustoffe und Bauwerkserhaltung gibt einen Überblick über die Probleme und Möglichkeiten beim Bauen im Untergrund. Dabei werden sowohl die betontechnologischen Grundlagen erläutert als auch die verschiedenen Bauteile und Bauweisen vorgestellt. Diese Techniken werden Anwendung beim Bau von drei Großprojekten in Karlsruhe, Stuttgart und Saarbrücken finden, die hier ebenfalls vorgestellt werden. Dieser Tagungsband fasst alle schriftlichen Beiträge zu den einzelnen Vorträgen zusammen.

Future buildings require not only energy efficiency but also proper building automation and control system functionalities in order to respond to the needs of occupants and energy grids. These development paths require a focus on occupant needs such as good indoor climate, easy operability, and monitoring. Another area to be tackled is energy flexibility, which is needed to make buildings responsive to the price signals of electricity grids with increasing amounts of fluctuating renewable energy generation installed both in central grids and at building sites. This Special Issue is dedicated to HVAC systems, load shifting, indoor climate, and energy and ventilation performance analyses in buildings. All these topics are important for improving the energy performance of new and renovated buildings within the roadmap of low energy and nearly zero energy buildings. To improve energy performance and, at the same time, occupant comfort and wellbeing, new technical solutions are required. Occupancy patterns and recognition, intelligent building management, demand response and performance of heating, cooling and ventilation systems are some common keywords in the articles of this Special Issue contributing to future highly performing buildings with reliable operation.

Belgium is a small country. The days of mining minerals and ores from the former colony, Congo, have long passed by and the last coal mine was closed 25 years ago. Now, there are hardly any physical resources in Belgium which can be exploited in materials research and development or industry. Materials research in Belgium bypasses this drawback by focussing on highly technological research fields, not requiring vast amounts of raw material. This approach includes the development of new analytical methods for the characterization of materials, research into new advanced functional materials as well as defining new industrial processes utilizing existing materials. This book compiles recent review and research papers from Belgian universities, covering a wide range of research disciplines in materials science. It thus presents a contemporary view on materials research activities in Belgium.

Biomolecular self-assembly provides a green, facile, and highly effective method to synthesize various functional nanomaterials that have exhibited considerable potential in the fields of nanotechnology, materials science, biomedicine, tissue engineering, food science, energy storage, and environmental science. In this collection of articles, we presented recent advance in the synthesis, characterization, and applications of self-assembled bio-nanomaterials. In a comprehensive review article, the controlled self-assembly of biomolecules including DNA, protein, peptide, enzymes, virus, and biopolymers via internal interactions and external simulations is introduced and discussed in detail. In other research articles, the self-assembly of DNA, protein, peptide, bio-drugs, liquid crystal polycarbonates, and diblock copolymers to various biomimetic/bioinspired nanomaterials and their potential applications in nanopatterning, sensors/biosensors, drug delivery, anti-parasite, and water purification are demonstrated.

Um der steigenden Nachfrage nach Baustoffen gerecht zu werden, sind Lösungen für einen ressourceneffizienten Beton erforderlich. Eine nachhaltige Nutzung von Bauwerken kombiniert ökologische Nachhaltigkeit mit ökonomischer Effizienz und sollte bereits mit einem nachhaltigen Einsatz der Baurohstoffe beginnen. Der vorliegende Tagungsband zum 15. Symposium Baustoffe und Bauwerkserhaltung zeigt Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten auf und bewertet diese hinsichtlich der zukünftigen Betontechnologie. Solutions for resource-efficient concrete are needed to meet the increasing demand for building materials. A sustainable use of structures combines ecological sustainability with economic efficiency and should begin with the sustainable usage of the construction raw materials. The present conference proceedings of the 15th Symposium on Building Materials and Building Maintenance point out development opportunities and evaluate them with regard to future concrete technology.

The publication proposes a critical reading of the results emerging from the Seminar organised in January 2010 by the Department of Architectural and Design Technology on research tools for the architectural project. The spatial layout of buildings and urban spaces influences behaviour and the relations of the users, and in this displays the social nature of the architectural function in comparison to other spheres of design. Space Syntax (theory, methodology and techniques for the analysis of complex systems) takes this theory as the basis for its research. The seminar, attended by leading academic and professional figures, offered the opportunity for exchange between its own research and the experiences carried forward by the Space Syntax research and consultancy group.
