  • Thermal Comfort Assessment of Buildings

    di Salvatore Carlucci ...
    Serie series Engineering (R0)
    A number of metrics for assessing human thermal response to climatic conditions have been proposed in scientific literature over the last decades. They aim at describing human thermal perception of the thermal environment to which an individual or a group of people is exposed. More recently, a new type of “discomfort index” has been proposed for describing, in a synthetic way, long-term phenomena. ... Altre info

  • Digital Fabrication in Architecture, Engineering and Construction

    di Luca Caneparo ...
    Serie series Engineering (R0)
    Digital technologies are changing the relationship between design and construction: with computer models, CAD/CAM, and prototyping, designers can gain direct control of building and construction processes. The ability to digitally model designs, and thus to use those models directly in the context of production, creates a synthesis between design and construction in keeping with the tradition of ...
