  • Thermal Comfort Assessment of Buildings

    Series 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. ... Leer más

  • Digital Fabrication in Architecture, Engineering and Construction

    de Luca Caneparo ...
    Series 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 ...

  • Evolutionary Optimisation of Façade Design

    A New Approach for the Design of Building Envelopes

    Series series Energy (R0)
    Optimization techniques offer immense potential for the improvement of performance-driven design, since they allow the adoption of an holistic approach. This can lead to great advantages: optimal design solutions can be properly identified only if all criteria are considered at the same time, rather than separately. There are two barriers which obstruct optimization from being applied to building ... Leer más
