Group-Theoretic Symmetry Indices for Modular Building Layouts under Seismic Load Redistribution
Abstract: Symmetry in modular buildings operates simultaneously as an architectural language, a structural regularizer, and a computational design variable. This paper develops a group-theoretic framework for evaluating and optimizing plan symmetry in modular buildings subjected to seismic load redistribution. The building layout is modeled as a finite occupancy–stiffness field defined on a rectangular lattice, where each module encodes both mass and stiffness contributions. Planar reflections and quarter-turn rotations are represented as …

Growth, Structural and Optical characteristics of Citric Acid Doped Copper Sulphate Single Crystals Polymer Composites Photonic Applications
Abstract: The organic material Citric Acid doped Copper Sulphate single crystals (CACS) was synthesized and single crystal was grown by slow evaporation method. The incorporation of citric acid, an organic compound, introduces polymer-like functional behavior into the crystal matrix, forming an organic-inorganic hybrid composite with enhanced optical and structural characteristics. Single crystal XRD confirmed the triclinic system with unit cell parameters: a = 5.96 Å, b = 6.11 Å, c = …

Comparative Study of Structural and Optical Properties of Bismuth Ferrite Nanoparticles for Photovoltaic Applications Synthesized via Different Sol-Gel Methods
Abstract: Pure multiferroic bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized using an energy-efficient, low-temperature sol-gel method, comparing two distinct approaches: auto-combustion and non-auto-combustion. To ensure phase stability, the precursor solution's pH was strictly maintained between 1 and 2 using ammonia solution (NH4OH), while ethylene glycol (C2H6O2) was employed as a chelating agent for the Fe3+ and Bi3+ cations. All samples underwent a final annealing process at 500 °C to promote crystallization. …
