EUPALINOS - Construction Engineering and Water Distribution Networks Management Laboratory
Welcome to the "EUPALINOS - Construction Engineering and Water Distribution Networks Management Laboratory" website. Further to the traditional field of construction engineering and management, we focus on a variety of research areas ranging from ...
... Building Information Models (BIM) and their application to construction and to the energy-efficiency of buildings, ...
... urban water distribution networks (UWDN), waterloss management, UWDN vulnerability, and spatio-temporal optimization of UWDN ...
... automatic meter reading (AMR) technologies for waterloss management, ...
... roadway networks, their operations and maintenance (O&M), and spatio-temporal optimization of such networks for uninterrupted traffic flow, ...
... integrated platforms for the safe transport of dangerous goods, ...
... and multi-modal transport.
The vision is clear. Scientific work and fully integrated and automated processes, transcending multiple fields of civil engineering, ...
... for the construction of a better built environment.
