title	The Expansion of Virtual Landscape in Digital Games: Classification of Virtual Landscapes Through Five principles
source	Gülen Çagdas, Mine Özkar, Leman F. Gül and Ethem Gürer (Eds.) Future Trajectories of Computation in Design [17th International Conference, CAAD Futures 2017, Proceedings / ISBN 978-975-561-482-3] Istanbul, Turkey, July 12-14, 2017, pp. 567-584.
summary	This research established classification system which contains five principles and variables to classify the types of the virtual landscape in digital games. The principles of the classification are Story, Space Shape, Space and Action Dimension, User Complexity and Interaction Level. With this classification system, our research group found the most representative types of virtual landscape in the digital game market through 1996 to 2016. Although mathematically there can be 288 types of virtual landscape, only 68 types have been used in the game market in recent twenty years. Among the 68 types, we defined 3 types of virtual landscape as the most representative types based on the growth curve and a number of cases. Those three representative types of virtual landscapes are Generating / Face / 3D-3D / Single / Partial, Providing / Chain / 3D-3D / Single / Partial and Providing / Linear / 2D-2D / Single / Partial. With the result, the researchers will be able to establish the virtual landscape design framework for the future research.

title	3D Concrete Printing Frame Structure in Granular Medium
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2024.3.263

summary	The field of architecture is experiencing an increase in demand for custom fabrication methods, driven by the advancements in digital design tools and techniques. However, in conventional concrete construction systems, achieving extensive customization often leads to high costs and prolonged fabrication times due to the complexities associated with formwork fabrication. This paper presents an alternative 3D concrete printing method named Concrete Printing in Granular Medium (CPGM). Unlike the current layered extrusion 3D printed concrete technology, CPGM extrudes concrete within a granular medium, which enables greater freedom in printable geometry without being limited by gravity constraints. The primary aim of CPGM is to facilitate the rapid fabrication of intricate concrete elements by removing the stacking process involved in layered extrusion. This paper outlines the design and fabrication workflow of the CPGM method and presents a case study involving creating a scaled model of a single-objective optimized concrete frame structure. Through proof-of-concept projects, the paper explores the potential benefits, current challenges, and future development of CPGM.

title	Density Gradient Concrete Fabrication With Injection 3D Gypsum Printing
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2024.2.079
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. 79–88
summary	Optimizing the material distribution of concrete elements has the potential to decrease concrete consumption and improve structural efficiency by reducing weight without altering the overall geometry. The challenge lies in making variable internal material densities of concrete elements. This study introduces the fabrication method of Injection 3D Gypsum Printing (IGP), which allows for creating functionally graded density of concrete elements. IGP removes concrete locally by injecting a gypsum-based temporary support material during the concrete casting. The water-soluble temporary support material injected into the liquid concrete is later removed by jetting water after the concrete cures. This system aims to fabricate topology-optimized structure designs while minimizing the additional construction steps and formwork requirements from the conventional casting construction system. This method combines effective material-saving digital fabrication strategies with conventional concrete construction's efficient reinforcement and casting processes. The study examines the material design and custom fabrication setup of IGP through initial feasibility experiments. Additionally, it presents IGP methods and applications through two proof-of-concept case studies. The digitally controlled material removal method introduced in this study holds potential as a material-saving strategy in future concrete construction.

source	Computing in Design - Enabling, Capturing and Sharing Ideas [ACADIA Conference Proceedings / ISBN 1-880250-04-7] University of Washington (Seattle, Washington / USA) October 19-22, 1995, pp. 75-95
summary	The design problem has a multi-disciplinary nature and the design itself evolves as solutions are attempted by the designer. To support inter-disciplinary communication of design concepts and decisions, the integration of relevant CAAD tools is essential. Based upon a large set of design criteria and all corresponding knowledge, with the help of computer aided design tools, the result could be highly effective and novel. The integration of CAAD tools should be performed on the basis of generating better solutions by enabling designers to manipulate and appraise various solutions quickly and with a minimum of effort. The proposed system provides the foundations for a seamless and continuous working environment for architects and building engineers through a data modelling module, an integrated data management framework and various design tools. In the environment, stand-alone design tools can be plugged-in in order to access information stored in central databases. The suggested data modelling module helps integrated CAAD systems represent and exchange domain dependent design information at a semantic level, such as exchanging components and features of a building rather than graphical primitives. The suggested data management framework supports the straight-forward mechanisms for controlling the data representation through the inter-connected modules and design tools.

summary	This paper investigates the mechanisms by which effective data communication between the various design stages and design actors may be facilitated in an Integrated Design Environment. The design team would then be able to cooperate efficiently and easily predict the performance of buildings, thus improving the quality of the design. Within the proposed prototype design environment, a core data model and a data management system have been implemented to connect all applications seamlessly. The core data model supports semantically meaningful descriptions of buildings. The data management system supports consistent and straightforward mechanisms for controlling the data representation through interconnected modules. An existing building is used to test the integration capability of the implemented system.###Product Modelling,.Object-Oriented Database System

summary	The architectural design process is very complex and it is not easily confined to a single design environment. As the design process gets more complex due to the technological advances in building materials and construction methods, an integrated design system becomes a central design issue. To have an integrated design system, all applications should be integrated in a unified environment within which there should be a data structure to facilitate an effective data communication among the various design stages and data control facility to seamlessly connect all these applications. A primary purpose of this work is to suggest an object oriented architectural design environment for the essential part of the seamless environment for designing a building. Within the object-oriented design environment, a unified data model and detailed data control module have been implemented to seamlessly connect all these applications. The unified data model organizes the structure of the design data to keep the design consistent throughout the design and construction process. It also helps to do effective data communication among the various design stages to ensure quality and time saving in the final construction of the building. The data management module supports the consistent and easy mechanisms in controlling the data representation through the inter-connected modules. It is also responsible for creating, maintaining, and viewing a consistent database of the design description. In the suggested design environment, each architectural element partially describes the model and individual elements are aggregated hierarchically. Some parts of the projection are defined and other can be inherited from above. Also, creation of an improved or new design element can easily be accommodated in the environment. The integrated database in the suggested environment is the basis by which design data can be shared among the design tools of the design environment. The database organizes the design description within each representation, correlates equivalent descriptions across the representations, and attempts to maintain these correspondences as the design incrementally evolves.

title	A Design System for Concurrent Reuse of Architectural Data
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.1996.163
source	CAADRIA ‘96 [Proceedings of The First Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / ISBN 9627-75-703-9] Hong Kong (Hong Kong) 25-27 April 1996, pp. 163-172
summary	This paper describes a design system which supports the concurrent re-use of existing design information by means of an object-oriented database system. The system manages component versioning within a flexible design environment which is to be used by a design team working on an evolving, complex design. A database of prototype designs has been built with a database system that supports versioning. The basic database operations are then extended with the routines that support inter-designer communication. The database system with these extensions produces a design environment in which designers using partitioned design databases holding multiple design component versions, may concurrently develop new designs. In addition, an expert system shell has been incorporated to deal with design evaluation processes. In this paper, the authors investigate the mechanisms by which existing design versions may be represented, combined and edited to provide new designs.

title	The Wave of Autonomous Mobility:Architecture Facilitating Indoor Autonomous Navigation

summary	When considering architectural and urban responses to autonomous mobility, it becomes evident that the future strategies will have to include a significant transformation to the built environment, particularly the ways it operates and interacts with inhabitants. Designers will not only need to rethink formal and functional arrangements but also, and perhaps primarily, consider the environment--buildings and cities--as active and equal actors with adaptive and autonomous behaviors similarly to those people or self-driving cars manifest. This paper discusses initial planning and design strategies for the integration of autonomous vehicles and other forms of autonomous mobility into the built environment. Specifically, it looks into necessary steps required to develop infrastructure to a level of autonomy that can facilitate a next generation of wayfinding and mobility. A growing research area into smaller personal mobility vehicles that would revolutionize elderly and disabled mobility brings to the light the major technical challenges present in current building infrastructure.

title	Metaphor - A tool for designing the next generation of human-building interaction

summary	Well known metaphors play an explanatory role in human-computer interaction (HCI) and support users in understanding an unfamiliar object with references to a familiar object, for example the desktop metaphor. Metaphors can also support designers in forming and exploring new concepts during the process of designing. We present metaphors that establish user expectations and provide guidance for new design concepts while integrating interactive technology in buildings to enable human-building interaction (HBI). HBI is a research area that studies how HCI research and practice provides opportunities for interactive buildings. Interactive experiences in architecture can be characterized by three metaphorical concepts: HBI as Device (user-centered view), HBI as Robot (building-centered view), and HBI as Friend (activity centered-view). These metaphors provide a tool for architects and HBI designers to explore designs that engage occupants' existing mental models from previous HCI experiences. We expand on each metaphor using analogical reasoning to define exploratory design spaces for HBI.

summary	This paper explores automated recognition of elements in interior design pictures for an intelligent design reference management system. Precedent design references have a significant role to help architects, designer and even clients in general architecture design process. Pictures are one of the representation that could exactly show a kind of design idea and knowledge. Due to the velocity, variety and volume of reference pictures data with growth of references platform, it is hard and time-consuming to handle the data with current manual way. To solve this problem , this paper depicts a deep learning-based approach to figuring out design elements and recognizing the design feature of them on the interior pictures using faster-RCNN and CNN algorithms. The targets are the residential furniture such as a table and a seating. Through proposed application, input pictures can automatically have tagging data as follows; seating1(type: sofa, seating capacity: two-seaters, design style: classic)

summary	Smart Growth is a multifaceted urban planning approach that has embraced planning regulation reforms across the municipalities in the United States. Urban planning regulations undoubtedly have formed built environment, but their impact on sustainability is often unforeseen in the early stage of community development. This research investigates an urban modeling framework that can envision Smart Growth development with parametric modeling, Building Information Modeling (BIM), Virtual Reality (VR), and software prototyping. As a pilot test, the paper presents a case study of Downtown Columbia Unified Development Code.

summary	Smart Growth is a fast-growing urban design and planning movement developed by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). These regulations control urban morphologies such as building form, position, faÃ§ade configurations, building materials, road configurations, which have an explicit association with the microclimate and outdoor comfort. This paper presents an urban modeling and simulation framework that can represent the urban morphology and its impact on microclimate shaped by Smart Growth. First, we created urban models using custom parametric objects and a building component library in BIM. Then we integrated parametric BIM and multiple performance simulations, including wind analysis, solar accessibility, and energy use. For implementation, a case study was carried out using two Smart Growth regulations in the Kansas City metropolitan area. The paper elaborates on the findings from simulation results, challenges in implementation, and limitations of the proposed framework to manage a large number of regulation variables in simulation.

summary	Smart Growth is an urban design movement initiated by Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the United States (Smart Growth America, 2019). The regulations of Smart Growth control urban morphologies such as building height, use, position, section configurations, faÃ§ade configurations, and materials, which have an explicit association with energy performances. This research aims to analyze and visualize the impact of Smart Growth developments on environmental performances. This paper presents a parametric modeling and simulation framework for Smart Growth developments that can model the potential community development scenarios, simulate the environmental footprints of each parcel, and visualize the results of modeling and simulation. We implemented and examined the proposed framework through a case study of two Smart Growth regulations: Columbia Unified Development Code (UDC) in Missouri (City of Columbia Missouri, 2017) and Overland Park Downtown Form-based Code (FBC) in Kansas City (City of Overland Park, 2017, 2019). Last, we discuss the implementation results, the limitations of the proposed framework, and the future work. We anticipate that the proposed method can improve stakeholders' understanding of how Smart Growth developments are associated with potential environmental footprints from an expeditious and thorough exploration of what-if scenarios of the multiple development schemes.

summary	This study aims to develop the parametric urban model to support Form-based Codes (FBCs) by using Object-Oriented Parametric Modeling (OOPM) and Building Information Modeling (BIM). FBCs have been used to substitute conventional land-use and zoning regulations in the United States. In many cities, FBCs were implemented successfully, but excessive design constraints, difficult code making process, and missing density of FBCs are criticized. As a response to the increasing needs of parametric modeling approaches in the urban design domain, we applied BIM and OOPM techniques in two case studies. We conclude that BIM and OOPM have a great potential to support planning and design processes, and that the parametric urban model allows FBCs to be more flexible, interpretable, and interoperable.

summary	This research investigates a method of urban building energy simulation (UBES) by integrating Building Information Modeling (BIM), building simulation, and algorithm-based prediction to forecast the impact of surrounding conditions. In the urban context, building energy performances are determined not only by the individual building design but also by the building's surrounding context. Many energy performances are sensitive to outdoor and surrounding building conditions, such as neighbouring building volumes, heights, and spaces between buildings. However, such surrounding conditions were overlooked because they can exponentially increase the complexity of urban modeling and simulation. In that regard, the research sought to investigate a novel framework to take advantage of accurate performance simulations and algorithm-based fast predictions. This paper presents our UBES method implemented from three research phases: (i) building a parametric urban model in BIM to provide simulation inputs, (ii) creating a parametric simulation interface to produce training and validation data, and (iii) creating a prediction interface using a Support Vector Machine (SVR) algorithm. Lastly, the paper elaborates on the findings from the prediction results.

title	Parameterize Urban Design Codes with BIM and Object-Oriented Programming

summary	There has been a significant need for the new urban design apparatus that carries out performance analyses of the urban models, since the code reform movements focused on the sustainable urban developments. This research explores the use of parametric Building Information Modeling to enable stakeholders to intuitively understand the implications and consequences of urban design codes. We investigate whether key regulations can be captured as algorithms and ontologies in parametric BIM and Object-Oriented Programming. Then we present our prototype of parametric urban models in a BIM platform that explains (1) the extent which urban design code information can be parameterized in BIM and (2) the methods how parametric models can hold code information. The results show that our prototype enables real-time manipulations of code requirements and interactive visualization of code allowances.
