summary The main contents of this paper are the parametric design and its applications in industrial design, taking the ergonomic chair as the main design research carrier, conducting the experimental study, and explored the parametric industrial product design procedures and methods based on personalized design notion of Form follows behaviors. The research map focused on two fundamental parts of parametric design definition: the construction of the parameter relationship and the acquisition of parameters. The first part, through design space exploration (DSE), to translate the design problem into parameters relationship and variable ranges. The second part, using various software and hardware tools (Grasshopper, Arduino with pressure sensors, Kinect, etc.) to facilitate parameter acquisition and its application in the 10-person customer-driven experiments to the resulting design models and user datasets. Finally, through the formulation of quantitative evaluation for 110 sets of user data and models, selecting the best design solution for the 3D printed prototype, and conducting the user test.

title Topology Reconstruction of a Discontinuous B-rep Geometry by using Form Finding Method
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2021.2.371

summary In the field of industrial manufacturing and building design procedure, B-Rep (Boundary Representation) model is often used to design and fabricate building components or molds, but in the finite element analysis(FEA) procedure, engineers often need to use the F-Rep (Functional Representation) model files. So, converting two file formats back and forth from one to another is a very important topic in architectural design and manufacturing process. However, there are still some limitations to carry out the conversation process efficiently on discontinuous B-rep geometries with existing software and plug-ins. In this paper, authors introduce an efficient retopology method with kangaroo physics plug-in based on Rhino platform to convert a B-Rep file into a F-Rep file (a continuous uniform mesh infinitely approached to the original geometry with a controllable face numbers) within limited steps. Thus, designers and engineers can do creative parametric design or finite element analysis continuously without surface boundary limitation. Furthermore, the mesh converted by the method introduced in the paper has a better regularity on each single face and better homogeneity of all faces than the built-in "QuadRemesh" function in Rhino-7.

title Design and Fabrication of Formwork for Shell Structures Based on 3D-printing Technology
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2021.1.487
source Stojakovic, V and Tepavcevic, B (eds.), Towards a new, configurable architecture - Proceedings of the 39th eCAADe Conference - Volume 1, University of Novi Sad, Novi Sad, Serbia, 8-10 September 2021, pp. 487-496
summary Shell structure is a kind of structure using a small amount of materials to obtain a large-span multi-functional space. However, lots of formwork and scaffold materials are often wasted in the construction process. This paper focuses on the shell structure construction using robotic 3D printing PLA (an environmental friendly material) technology as the background. The author explores the possibility of 3D printing technology in shell construction from small scale models in different construction method, and gradually optimizes the shell template shape suitable for PLA material in full-scale construction. Finally, the research team chose the bending-active 3D printing type and completed the construction of three full-scale concrete shell molds. Under the guidance of professor Philippe Block, the research team finished the final 3D printing mold with optimized slicing and bending logic and successfully used it as the template mold to carry the tiles which proved the feasibility of this construction method.
