title	SmartNodes Pavilion - Towards Custom-optimized Nodes Applications in Construction

summary	Recent developments in Additive Manufacturing are creating possibilities to make not only rapid prototypes, but directly manufactured customised components. This paper investigates the potential for combining standard building materials with customised nodes that are individually optimised in response to local load conditions in non-standard, irregular, or doubly curved frame structures. This research iteration uses as a vehicle for investigation the SmartNodes Pavilion, a temporary structure with 3D printed nodes built for the 2015 Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture in Hong Kong. The pavilion is the most recent staged output of the SmartNodes Project. It builds on the findings in earlier iterations by introducing topologically constrained node forms that marry the principals of the evolved optimised node shape with topological constraints imposed to meet the printing challenges. The 4m high canopy scale prototype structure in this early design research iteration represents the node forms using plastic Fused Deposition Modelling (FDM).

summary	Participatory planning aims at engaging multiple stakeholders including citizens in various stages of planning projects. Adopting participatory design approach in the early stage of planning project facilitates the ideation process of citizens. We have implemented a participatory design study during the 2017 Beijing Design Week and have conducted an interactive design project called "Design your perfect Dashilar: You Place it!". Participants including local residents and visitors were asked to redesign the Yangmeizhu street, a historical street located in Dashilar area by rearranging the buildings of residential, commercial, administration, and cultural functionalities. Apart from using digital design tools, questionnaires, interviews, and sensor network were applied to collect personal preferences data. Computational approaches were used to extract features from designs and personal preferences. In this paper, we illustrate the implementation of the participatory design and the possible applications by combining with crowdsourcing. Participatory design data and citizens profiles with personal preferences were analysed and their correlations were computed. By using crowdsourcing and participatory design, this study shows that the digitalization of participatory design with data science perspective can indicate the implicit requirements, needs and design ideas of citizens.

title	Sentient Concrete - Developing Embedded Thermal and Thermochromic Interactions for Architecture and Built Environment
source	T. Fukuda, W. Huang, P. Janssen, K. Crolla, S. Alhadidi (eds.), Learning, Adapting and Prototyping - Proceedings of the 23rd CAADRIA Conference - Volume 2, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, 17-19 May 2018, pp. 545-554

summary	Historically, architectural design focused on adaptation of built environment to serve human needs. Recently embedded computation and digital fabrication have advanced means to actuate physical infrastructure in real-time. These 'reactive spaces' have typically explored movement and media as a means to achieve reactivity and physical deformation (Chatting et al. 2017). However, here we recontextualize 'reactive' as finding new mechanisms for permanent and non-deformable everyday materials and environments. In this paper, we describe our ongoing work to create a series of complex forms - modular concrete panels - using thermal, tactile and thermochromic responses controlled by embedded networked system. We create individualized pathways to thermally actuate these surfaces and explore expressive methods to respond to the conditions around these forms - the environment, the systems that support them, their interaction and relationships to human occupants. We outline the design processes to achieve thermally adaptive concrete panels, illustrate interactive scenarios that our system enables, and discuss opportunities for new forms of interactivity within the built environment.

title	Research on Physical Wind Tunnel and Dynamic Model Based Building Morphology Generation Method
source	T. Fukuda, W. Huang, P. Janssen, K. Crolla, S. Alhadidi (eds.), Learning, Adapting and Prototyping - Proceedings of the 23rd CAADRIA Conference - Volume 2, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, 17-19 May 2018, pp. 165-174
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.2.165
summary	The change of the building morphology directly affects the surrounding environment, while the evaluation of these environment data becomes the main basis for the genetic iterations of the building morphology. Indeed, due to the complexity of the outdoor natural ventilation, multiple factors in the site could be the main reasons for the change of air flow. Thus, the architect is suggested to take the wind environment as the main morphology generation factor in the early stage of the building design. Based on the research results of 2017 DigitalFUTURE Wind Tunnel Visualization Workshop, a novel self-form-finding method in design infancy has been proposed. This method uses Arduino to carry out the dynamic design of the building model, which can not only connect the sensor to monitor the wind environment data, but also contribute the building model to correlate with the wind environment data in real time. The integration of the Arduino platform and the physical wind tunnel can create the possibility of continuous and real-time physical changes, data collection and wind environment simulation, using quantitative environmental factors to control building morphology, and finally achieve the harmony among the building, environment and human.

title	Augmented Reality Technology based Wind Environment Visualization
source	T. Fukuda, W. Huang, P. Janssen, K. Crolla, S. Alhadidi (eds.), Learning, Adapting and Prototyping - Proceedings of the 23rd CAADRIA Conference - Volume 1, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, 17-19 May 2018, pp. 369-377
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.1.369
summary	Considering the outdoor environment at the initial stage of design process plays a significant role on future building performance. Augmented Reality (AR) technology applied in this research can integrate real world building morphology information and virtual world ventilation information seamlessly that rapidly and directly provides designers information for observation and evaluation. During the case study of "2017 Shanghai DigitalFUTURE" summer workshop, a research on augmented reality technology based wind environment visualization was carried on. The achievement with an application software not only showed the geometric information of the real world objects (such as buildings), but also the virtual wind environment has displayed. Thus, these two kinds of information can complement and superimpose each other. This AR technology based software brings multiple synthetic together, which can (1) visualize the air flow around buildings that provides designers rapid and direct information for evaluation; (2) deal with wind-environment-related data quantitatively and present in an intuitive, easy-to-interpret graphical way; and (3) be further developed as a visualization system based on built-in environments in the future, which contributes to rapid evaluation of a series of programs at the beginning of the building design.

title	Regional Barriers - A Study on the Applicability of SHoP's Project Delivery Strategies to China's Architectural Environment
source	P. Janssen, P. Loh, A. Raonic, M. A. Schnabel (eds.), Protocols, Flows, and Glitches - Proceedings of the 22nd CAADRIA Conference, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, Suzhou, China, 5-8 April 2017, pp. 199-208
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2017.199
summary	This paper discusses New York based architecture practice - SHoP's project delivery strategies, to demonstrate an avant-garde methodology in pursuing architect-led project environments where optimised outcomes are achieved with digital workflows. The paper elaborates on how today's Chinese architecture adopts global digital trends while certain barriers are impeding development of computationally integrated project delivery modes. Thirdly, the paper indicates the emergence of a new generation of digital architects in China, showcasing their practices to argue for the regional applicability of SHoP's working mode. The paper concludes by summarising the disadvantages of the current Chinese architectural system, advocating the necessity of a systematic digitalisation, and discussing the Western potential in China's modernising architecture.
