Conceptual modeling applied to computer-aided architectural design
(Elsevier, 1992-04)
A possible approach to inter-system integration is proposed using a neutral file format and application protocols. Structural information is modeled in a relational database system which in turn converts the data to an ...
A Legibility Equation for Determining Ideal Viewing Areas in Lecture Halls.
(2008)
Text presented in modern lecture halls often simultaneously appears on multiple visual media (e.g., blackboard, projection screens, TV) that have different locations, geometries, orientations, and lighting conditions. An ...
Improving the wind‐induced human comfort of the Beijing Olympic Tower by a double‐stage pendulum tuned mass damper
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.McGraw‐Hill, 2020-03)
Best practices for modeling structural boundary conditions due to a localized fire
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Springer, 2020-04)
An integrated topology optimization framework for three‐dimensional domains using shell elements
(University of StellenboschWiley Periodicals, Inc., 2021-01)
Seismic retrofit design and risk assessment of an irregular thermal power plant building
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc.American Society of Civil Engineers, 2020-04-25)
Programmatic Design Methods in Architecture (GA+TRIZ Solution Search Method)
(2019)
When an architectural design problem is stated, it may take several iterations to evaluate the design alternatives, modify the problem statement and the corresponding solutions and make the final decision. The recursive ...
Generative Reciprocity: A Computational Approach for Performance-Based and Fabrication-Aware Design of Reciprocal Systems
(2020)
Using the capabilities of computation and digital fabrication this thesis provides a basis for a novel process of design to fabrication for reciprocal systems.
In the traditional sense, reciprocal structures combine the ...
Aural Architecture as Affect: Understanding the Impact of Acoustic Environments on Human Experience
(2021)
Architectural design plays a significant role in shaping human experience in buildings through the perception of space. However, architectural characteristics not only result in visual attributes that affect how the occupants ...
Influence of Uncertainty in User Behaviors on the Simulation-Based Building Energy Optimization Process and Robust Decision-Making
(2016)
Computer-based simulations have been widely used to predict building performances. Building energy simulation tools are generally used to perform parametric studies. However, the building is a complex system with a great ...
