Destructive technology creates growth in entirely new industries by introducing products and services that are more convenient and economically efficient. Destructive technology often engages the workforce by allowing technological development of individuals to become competitive in the industrial labor market. It introduces a revolutionary change in the conduct of industrial processes. The importance of finding a scientific base to employ the innovation of destructive technology in architecture has started through the adoption of the mining mechanism in the industry with its equivalent concept of impact in architecture as a strategy in innovation and not be the end of the process of architectural innovation through its ability to continue and shorten time. The comparison between three types of the materials used in the architectural production of building with materials (bricks, blocks, and quick concrete walls) is through finding an equation or model that depends on the following indicators: efficiency, effectiveness, adaptation, and continuity of these materials in the architectural production according to the time periods of production. The present study aims to adopt Mining strategy in discovering concrete walls as a disruptive technological innovation for both of the previous two types.

Similarities Between Indian and Uzbek Fabrics in The Study of Traditional Abrband Textiles

Textile production has played a crucial role in the cultural and economic development of societies worldwide. Among the diverse weaving traditions, ikat stands out as an intricate dyeing technique with a rich historical significance. The method of pre-dyeing threads before weaving creates unique, blurred patterns that reflect the artistry and craftsmanship of different cultures. The tradition of ikat weaving exists in various regions, including India and Uzbekistan, where it has evolved uniquely based on local customs and artistic preferences. While Indian textiles emphasize double ikat techniques and elaborate patterns in Patola silk, Uzbek abrband fabrics focus on vibrant color transitions and cloud-inspired motifs. Despite similarities in production techniques, the variations in design, dyeing processes, and material selection remain understudied. Although previous research has examined ikat weaving in India and Uzbekistan separately, comparative studies analyzing their similarities and differences in depth are scarce. The evolution of these textiles along the Silk Road and their cultural significance in different regions require further investigation. This study aims to explore the historical connections, design characteristics, and technical distinctions between Indian and Uzbek ikat weaving traditions. Findings indicate that while both traditions share fundamental dyeing and weaving techniques, Indian ikats focus on geometric precision and intricate double-dyeing, whereas Uzbek abrband textiles prioritize free-flowing patterns and vibrant color blending. This research highlights the unique regional adaptations of ikat, demonstrating how cultural influences shape textile design beyond technical similarities. The study contributes to the understanding of textile heritage, encouraging the preservation of traditional weaving methods while fostering cross-cultural appreciation of textile arts. Future research may further explore the economic impact of these textiles in modern global markets.

Sustainable urban design is fundamental to improving the urban environment in cities, as it seeks to achieve a balance between population growth and community needs, while preserving natural resources and the environment. Artificial intelligence also has impacted urban design. It provides the ability to collect, analyze, and use data to make decisions and improve urban services. The study aims to clarify the role of artificial intelligence and how to benefit from it and employ its applications in the field of sustainable urban design. This study followed an analytical approach, analyzing the available information and evaluating some selected samples to show the importance and role of artificial intelligence in sustainable urban design.
