Digital Design & Full Scale Fabrication Course – IoA
CONTROLLED ACTIVE BENDING STRUCTURES
“The form is a system which organises itself in the presences of both internal and external forces and these organizations can shape patterns traced through mathematical rules.”
D’ Arcy Thompson
In this framework, this 5-days course focuses on the creation of...
8th International Conference on Fibre-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) Composites in Civil Engineering
This post is somewhat late, but taking advantage of the new Innochain data repository, here is the paper presented at CICE 2016 by James Solly (ESR08) on behalf of his co-authors Professor Jan Knippers and researchers Valentin Koslowski and Timo Fildhuth.
Talking models
Progress update and some thoughts about data, a new modelling workflow, and revisiting the last demonstrator.

Innochain Colloquium Presentation – Integrating Building Physics for Performance Control
This is the video from the project’s presentation at the Design Probes Exhibition in Vienna, earlier this month.
In its current stage, the research has investigated the state of the art in CFD integration through a number of key experiments – design probes – with similar objectives that aim to...
Open Thesis Fabrication – CFD Study of a Large Scale 3D Printed Clay Wall
The Open Thesis Fabricaion applied research programme at the Institute of Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IaaC) is focusing this year on constructing a large scale 3D printed clay wall, which has just been erected at the Green Fab Lab in Valldaura.
As part of my research I have been...
