title Toward the wind-related building performative design
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2016.109
source Living Systems and Micro-Utopias: Towards Continuous Designing, Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Computer-Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia (CAADRIA 2016) / Melbourne 30 March–2 April 2016, pp. 109-218
summary The integration of optimization algorithms and building performance simulation tools make it possible to carry out performa- tive design or performance-driven design, which aims to guide the de- sign synthesis process of the simulation results to continuously im- prove the design. However, the associated research work of wind- related building performance is still deficient, resulting from lack of applicable interface and the time consumption. Meanwhile, in the in- dustrial design realm, the aero-dynamics or fluid-dynamics behaviour of the production under development has been vastly analysed and op- timized based on the multi-discipline optimization (MDO) techniques. Owing to offering numerous built-in interface and integrated optimi- zation algorithm, MDO application software has begun to be used in building optimization design with the complex relationship between various objectives. With the advantage of MDO tools and aimed to provide an efficient optimization approach from the perspective of ar- chitect, this paper proposes a wind-related building performance op- timization design system integrating Rhinoceros and Fluent based on iSIGHT - a MDO application software. In addition, the lighting per- formance is considered in this research as well for implementing the multi-objective optimization. Two case studies of tall building optimi- zation design based on varied generative approaches are introduced to investigate the effect and efficiency of this system.

title Bric(k)olage: Spoliated Masonry C+D Waste
source ACADIA 2023: Habits of the Anthropocene: Scarcity and Abundance in a Post-Material Economy [Volume 3: Proceedings of the 43rd Annual Conference for the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 979-8-9891764-1-0]. Denver. 26-28 October 2023. edited by A. Crawford, N. Diniz, R. Beckett, J. Vanucchi, M. Swackhamer 24-32.
summary The 2016 US Environmental Protection Agency reported that 23.1 million tons of broken pieces of concrete waste are annually discarded from new construction sites (EPA -2) and in example states in the north american context only 6.6% of C&D concrete is recycled; the rest is thrown out in landfills as it is labeled “contaminated or too hard to process on a large scale.” (CT DOE 25) Relatively little investigation has occurred in how this material could reappear in the architectural project that might honor its intrinsic broken quality as a part of its materiality within a life-cycle of continual usage. This project speaks towards a problematic Habit of the Anthropocene in how we construct buildings placing intrinsic cultural value on new parts over the broken and old due to economic efficiencies.

title Inconsistent Affective Reaction: Sentiment of Perception and Opinion in Urban Environments
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2024.2.395
source Nicole Gardner, Christiane M. Herr, Likai Wang, Hirano Toshiki, Sumbul Ahmad Khan (eds.), ACCELERATED DESIGN - Proceedings of the 29th CAADRIA Conference, Singapore, 20-26 April 2024, Volume 2, pp. 395–404
summary The ascension of social media platforms has transformed our understanding of urban environments, giving rise to nuanced variations in sentiment reaction embedded within human perception and opinion, and challenging existing multidimensional sentiment analysis approaches in urban studies. This study presents novel methodologies for identifying and elucidating sentiment inconsistency, constructing a dataset encompassing 140,750 Baidu and Tencent Street view images to measure perceptions, and 984,024 Weibo social media text posts to measure opinions. A reaction index is developed, integrating object detection and natural language processing techniques to classify sentiment in Beijing Second Ring for 2016 and 2022. Classified sentiment reaction is analysed and visualized using regression analysis, image segmentation, and word frequency based on land-use distribution to discern underlying factors. The perception affective reaction trend map reveals a shift toward more evenly distributed positive sentiment, while the opinion affective reaction trend map shows more extreme changes. Our mismatch map indicates significant disparities between the sentiments of human perception and opinion of urban areas over the years. Changes in sentiment reactions have significant relationships with elements such as dense buildings and pedestrian presence. Our inconsistent maps present perception and opinion sentiments before and after the pandemic and offer potential explanations and directions for environmental management, in formulating strategies for urban renewal.

title Pneumatic Textile System
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2016.290
source ACADIA // 2016: POSTHUMAN FRONTIERS: Data, Designers, and Cognitive Machines [Proceedings of the 36th Annual Conference of the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 978-0-692-77095-5] Ann Arbor 27-29 October, 2016, pp. 290-297
summary This paper attempts to demonstrate a seamless transformable material system through an interdependent designed assembly of two materials with different material properties (anisotropic knit textile and isotropic silicone) but similar behaviors (stretch). The transformable system is achieved by balancing the volumetric expansion through a silicone tube, under inflation, with the controlled resistance to stretch by a custom knit fabric. The use of a CNC knitting machine allows not only an opportunity to program the stretch behavior of a knit fabric, by controlling the amount of yarn material to be deposited, but also an ability to knit multiple layers of fabric simultaneously, in order to create a space capable of accommodating an external element seamlessly. The paper will showcase a series of experiments ranging from the initial search for compatible material combinations to the varied structures of the tube sleeve and its relationship with surrounding region. The final prototype attempts to utilize the various behavioral properties of the material system learned from the experiments to create a transformable three-dimensional structure.

title Highly Informed Robotic 3D Printed Polygon Mesh: A Nobel Strategy of 3D Spatial Printing
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.2016.298
source ACADIA // 2016: POSTHUMAN FRONTIERS: Data, Designers, and Cognitive Machines [Proceedings of the 36th Annual Conference of the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 978-0-692-77095-5] Ann Arbor 27-29 October, 2016, pp. 298-307
summary Though robotic 3D printing technology is currently undergoing rapid development, most of the research and experiments are still based on a bottom up layering process. This paper addresses long term research into a robotic 3D printed polygon mesh whose struts are directly built up and joined together as rapidly generated physical wireframes. This paper presents a novel “multi-threaded” robotic extruder, as well as a technical strategy to create a “printable” polygon mesh that is collision-free during robotic operation. Compared to standard 3D printing, architectural applications demand much larger dimensions at human scale, geometrically lower resolution and faster production speed. Taking these features into consideration, 3D printed frameworks have huge potential in the building industry by combining robot arm technology together with FDM 3D printing technology. Currently, this methodology of rapid prototyping could potentially be applied on pre-fabricated building components, especially ones with uniform parabolic features. Owing to the mechanical features of the robot arm, the most crucial challenge of this research is the consistency of non-stop automated control. Here, an algorithm is employed not only to predict and solve problems, but also to optimize for a highly efficient construction process in coordination of the robotic 3D printing system. Since every stroke of the wireframe contains many parameters and calculations in order to reflect its native organization and structure, this robotic 3D printing process requires processing an intensive amount of data in the back stage.
