(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Pure Home Water (PHW) is a social enterprise that promotes and disseminates household drinking water technologies in the Northern Region of Ghana. Currently their main product is a pot-shaped Potters for Peace-type ceramic ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Over the past decades, scientists and engineers have tried to develop and improve various devices and control systems in order to mitigate and prevent civil structures against external dynamic forces such as strong wind ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Pure Home Water (PHW) is a non-profit based in Ghana that seeks to bring safe drinking water to those most in need in Northern Ghana through the production, sale, and distribution of ceramic pot filters (CPF) and other ...

-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Biology implements fundamental principles that allow for attractive mechanical properties, as observed in biomineralized structures. For example, diatom algae contain nanoporous hierarchical silicified shells that provide ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)With an annual production of more than 20 billion tons a year, concrete continues to be the world's dominating manufacturing material for a foreseeable future. However, this ubiquity comes with a large ecological price as ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Titanium has been used to meet ever-stricter standards for high-temperature performance, creep resistance, low weight and high strength. Having low density, a high melting point, and high tensile strength, it seems like ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)The fundamental challenge for the structural engineer in designing earthquake-resistant structures is to design buildings with both adequate ductility and sufficient stiffness. Traditional lateral force resisting systems ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1993)
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)High-speed rail (HSR) is primarily for intermediate distance intercity passenger travel. The concept of high-speed rail commuting is to provide short distance commuting transportation service on dedicated HSR, by sharing ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)High Speed Rail is a mode that gains popularity every day. Many countries have such a network and others are on the way to adopting one. Greece, which is part of the European Union, is one of those countries that are looking ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)The institutional reform of Japan National Railway (JNR) in 1987 has been considered as a great success. After the Japanese railway reform, European countries introduced vertical separation management. However, the question ...
