ESR5 – Alternate Means to Communicate Measure
AUTHOR: Dimitrie A. Stefanescu (@idid)
Digital design tools are now undergoing a transition of application scope, expanding beyond their initial technical domains and leveraging the flexibility of the digital medium.
Digital means of communication...
ESR 4 – Multi-Criteria Optimization in Early Design Phase
ESR: Zeynep Aksoz
ESR NUMBER: ESR4
INDUSTRIAL PARTNERS: Str.ucture + Foster and Partners
INSTITUTE: IOA
DESCRIPTION:
Multiple criteria optimization is a method to find best fitting solution for a complex problem depending on several objectives mainly by maximizing or minimizing a...
If material gradient is the answer, then what was the question !
If FRP is the material solution for climate adaptive building envelopes, then the question is, how will it impact architecture.
INTRODUCTION TO CORELESS FILAMENT WINDING
ESR08- Virtual Prototyping FRP
AUTHOR: JAMES SOLLY
There are a multitude of forming processes available for the fabrication of Fibre-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) components, from simple hand lay-ups to heavily automated industrial processes.
“Coreless Filament Winding” is a variation on typing...
Integrating Fast Fluid Dynamics – Previous Work
AUTHOR: Angelos Chronis
Despite the continuous development of performance simulation tools, their seamless integration in the design process is still a challenge. One area that has remained largely unexplored is computational fluid dynamics (CFD). CFD simulations have a large variety of...
Kernel Scripting Applied on Membranes
ESR: Stephanie Chaltiel
ESR NUMBER: ESR15
INDUSTRIAL PARTNERS: Cloud 9 + ROK-Office
INSTITUTE: IAAC
A series of recursive geometries are being carried out digitally and then applied on the membranes.
The idea is to seek perfromance criteria: Minimum of material for Maximum of resilience.
