summary	Several research projects (Gramazio et al. 2014; Willmann et al. 2015; Helm et al. 2017; Adel et al. 2018; Adel Ahmadian 2020) have investigated the use of automated assembly technologies (e.g., industrial robotic arms) for the fabrication of nonstandard timber structures. Building on these projects, we present a novel and transferable process for the robotic fabrication of bespoke timber subassemblies made of off-the-shelf standard timber elements. A nonstandard timber structure (Figure 2), consisting of four bespoke subassemblies: three vertical supports and a Zollinger (Allen 1999) roof structure, acts as the case study for the research and validates the feasibility of the proposed process.

summary	The following project was created as part of an art residency with the Wellcome Centre for Mitochondrial Research (WCMR) at Newcastle University. The WCMR specializes in leading-edge research into mitochondrial disease, investigating causes, treatments, and ways of avoiding hereditary transmission. Mitochondria is believed to have started off as a separate species that through symbiosis came to be the powerhouse of each cell in our bodies (Hird 2009). Mitochondrial disease is a genetic disorder that is caused by genetic mutations of the DNA of the mitochondria or the cell that in turn affects the mitochondria (Bolano 2018). Mitochondria is a hereditary condition and can affect people at different stages in their lives. It can affect various organs and has a link to various types of conditions. Therefore, the patient experience is unique to each individual and the elusive nature of the condition can make it particularly challenging due to the complexity of the disorder as well as the inaccessible scale on which these variations occur (Chinnery 2014)

title	Learning to be a Vault - Implementing learning strategies for design exploration in inter-scalar systems
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2014.1.381
source	Thompson, Emine Mine (ed.), Fusion - Proceedings of the 32nd eCAADe Conference - Volume 1, Department of Architecture and Built Environment, Faculty of Engineering and Environment, Newcastle upon Tyne, England, UK, 10-12 September 2014, pp. 381-390
summary	Parametric design models enable the production of dynamic form, responsive material assemblies, and numerically and geometrically analytical feedback. The value potential for design produced through the procedural transformation of input parameters (or features) through algorithmic models has been repeatedly demonstrated and epistemically refined. However, despite their capacity to improve productivity and iteration, parametric models are nonetheless prone to inflexibility and reduction, both of which obscure processes of invention and discovery that are central to an effective design practice. This paper presents an experimental approach for the application of multiple, parallel computational design modelling strategies which are tested in the production of an inter-scalar model array that synthesises design intent, the simulation of material behaviours, performance-driven adaptation, and open-ended processes of discovery and categorical description. It is particularly focused on the computational potentials embedded in interdependent applications of simulation and machine learning algorithms as generative and descriptive drivers of form, performance, and architectural quality. It ultimately speculates towards an architectural design modelling method that privileges open model topologies and emergent feature production as critical operators in the generation of flexible and adaptive design solutions.

summary	This paper presents the interface of a Brazilian house automation system, departing from an analogy of sailing race instruments. It aims to demonstrate the potential of automation systems on the house performance and, more important, on impacting households for a more sustainable behavior. Sailing instruments have positively influenced results on experienced sailors’ speed and ultimately have confirmed their observations on nature cycles. Our argument is that if research on race sailing instruments soon became available to other sailing boats, systems developed to the Solar Decathlon houses’ academic competition could, and should, be accessible to a great number of home owners.

summary	This design research reimagines the architectural detail in a postdigital framework and proposes digital methods to work upon discrete tectonics. Drawing upon Marco Frascari's writing The Tell-the-Tale Detail, the study aims to reimagine tectonic thinking for focused attention after the digital turn. Today, computational tools are powerful enough to perform operations more similar to physical tools than in the earlier digital era. These tools create a "digital materiality," where architects can manipulate digital information in parallel and overlapping ways to physical corollaries. (Abrons and Fure, 2018) To date, work in this area has focused on materiality specifically. This project reinterprets tectonics using texture map editing and point cloud information, particularly reconceptualizing jointing using images. Smartphone-based 3D digital scanning was used to captured details from a series of Carlo Scarpa's influential works, isolating these details from their physical sites and focusing attention upon individual tectonic moments. As digital scans, these details problematize the rhetoric of smoothness and seamlessness prevalent in digital architecture as they are discretely construed loci yet composed of digital meshes. (Jones 2014) Once removed from their contexts, reconnecting the digital scans into compositions of "compound details" necessitated a series of new mechanisms for constructing and construing not native to the material world. Using Photoshop editing of texture-mapped images, digital texturing of meshes, and interpretation of the initial material constructions, new joints within and between these the digital scanned details were created to reframe the original detail for the post-digital.

title	Crafting and Assessing Urban Environments Using Computational Fluid Dynamics
source	Digital Crafting [7th International Conference Proceedings of the Arab Society for Computer Aided Architectural Design (ASCAAD 2014 / ISBN 978-603-90142-5-6], Jeddah (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia), 31 March - 3 April 2014, pp. 315-322
summary	Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a reliable tool for the analysis of outdoor and indoor climatic related conditions. Due to rapid population growth the need for dense urban developments and high-rise buildings became demanding. This led to creating the phenomenon of urban heat islands and deteriorating air quality and thermal discomfort. This research highlights the potential of adopting CFD as a simulation technique to investigate the complex fluid flows in urban thermal environment. It discusses the advantages and limitations of CFD tool. It describes the CFD simulation approach and the procedure for conducting CFD simulation. This paper also gives some examples of case studies of CFD assessment for indoor and outdoor urban environments.

summary	The presented paper discusses the combination of cutting edge technology (i.e. 3D-pinting) and raw natural grown resources (i.e. bamboo) to develop resource efficient load carrying truss structures in architectural scale. Via visual sensing the individual material properties of various bamboo poles are analyzed and directly used to inform the digital model. Comparing load carrying capacity of the bamboo pole and structural requirements of the design, the poles are placed and the connections designed. Conventional 3D-pinters produce the nodes and connectors and enable to merge natural and "digital" materiality.

summary	Traditionally, Reciprocal Frame (RF) structures feature the use of linear materials such as rods, beams and bars. Their potential in varied curvature and doubly-curved forms illustrate ongoing advances in computation and fabrication. Flexible to using small available materials that span large areas, RF systems appeal as a popular research topic to demonstrate tectonic and engineering feats. However, RF using planar materials is a non-traditional application and is not widely explored in research. This paper discusses RF research projects that feature planar custom shapes with unique 3D tectonic capabilities. Their aesthetic properties and structural opportunities will be discussed and evaluated. The objective of this paper is to examine the use of planar materials and highlight the potential of irregular 3D reciprocal systems. The use of custom shapes in a reciprocal system and their unique growth morphologies presents a novel direction in the practice of reciprocal systems.

summary	This research explores utilizing Cellular Automata patterns as climate-adaptive dynamic shading systems to mitigate the undesirable impacts by excessive solar penetration in cooling-dominant climates. The methodological procedure is realized through two main phases. The first evaluates all 256 Elementary Cellular Automata possible rules to elect the ones with good visual and random patterns, to ensure an equitable distribution of the natural daylight in internal spaces. Based on the newly developed hourly-based metrics, simulations are conducted in the second phase to evaluate the Cellular Automata controlled dynamic shadings performance, and formalize the adaptive façade variation logic that maximizes daylighting and minimizes energy demand.

summary	Quantitative studies using the corpus Google Ngram, namely Culturomics, have been analyzing the implicit patterns of culture changes. Being the top-standard prize in the field of Architecture since 1979, the Pritzker Prize has been increasingly diversified in the recent years. This study intends to reveal the implicit pattern of Pritzker Winners using the method of Culturomics, based on the corpus of Google Ngram to reveal the relationship of the sign of their fame and the fact of prize-winning. 48 architects including 32 awarded and 16 promising are analyzed in the printed corpus of English language between 1900 and 2008. Multiple regression models and multiple imputation methods are used during the data processing. Self-Organizing Map is used to define clusters among the awarded and promising architects. Six main clusters are detected, forming a 3×2 network of fame patterns. Most promising architects can be told from the clustering, according to their similarity to the more typical prize winners. The method of Culturomics could expand the sight of architecture study, giving more possibilities to reveal the implicit patterns of the existing empirical world.

title	Modulating Natural Ventilation to Enhance Resilience Through Modifying Nozzle Profiles - Exploring Rapid Prototyping Through 3D-Printing

summary	The study aimed to develop and test an environmentally friendly, easily deployable, and affordable solution for socio-economically challenged populations of the world. 3D-printing (additive manufacturing) was used as a rapid prototyping tool to develop and test a façade system that would modulate air velocity through modifying nozzle profiles to utilize natural cross ventilation techniques in order to improve human comfort in buildings. Constrained by seasonal weather and interior partitions which block the ability to cross ventilate, buildings can be equipped to perform at reduced energy loads and improved internal human comfort by using a façade system composed of retractable nozzles developed through this empirical research. This paper outlines the various stages of development and results obtained from physically testing different profiles of nozzle-forms that would populate the façade system. In addition to optimizing nozzle profiles, the team investigated the potential of collapsible tube systems to permit precise placement of natural ventilation directed at occupants of the built space.

title	HOLOSYNC - A Comparative Study on Mixed Reality and Contemporary Communication Methods in a Building Design Context
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.1.401
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. 401-410
summary	The integration of technology into the design process has enabled us to communicate through various modes of virtuality, while more traditional face-to-face collaborations are becoming less frequent, specifically for large scale companies. Both modes of communication have benefits and disadvantages - virtual communication enables us to connect over large distances, however can often lead to miscommunication, while face-to-face communication builds stronger relationship, however may be problematic for geographically dispersed teams. Mixed Reality is argued to be a hybrid of face-to-face and virtual communication, and is yet to be integrated into the building design process. Despite its current limitations, such as field of view, Mixed Reality is an effective tool that generates high levels of nonverbal and verbal communication, and encourages a high and equal level of participation in comparison to virtual and face-to-face communication. Being a powerful communication tool for complex visualisations, it would be best implemented in the later stages of the building design process where teams can present designs to clients or where multiple designers can collaborate over final details.

summary	Algorithmic design processes have enormous potential for architecture. Even though some large design offices have already incorporated such processes in their workflow, so far, these have not been seriously considered by the large majority of traditional small-scale studios. Nevertheless, as the integration of algorithmic techniques inside architectural studios does not require mastering programming skills, but rather taking advantage of a collaborative design process, small design studios are therefore able of using such strategies within their workflow. This paper discusses a series of challenges presented by one of these studios, where we had to integrate algorithmic design processes with the studio's traditional workflow.

summary	Digitally-generated visualizations, such as renders or movies, are, nowadays, commonly used as representation methods for architectural creations. This occurs not only in final stages of the process, with the goal of selling the product's image, but also in midst creation process to express concepts and ideas. Presently, the spread of parametric and algorithmic approaches to design creates a problem for visualization, as it enables the almost effortless change of 3D models, thus requiring repeated visualization efforts to keep up with the changes applied to the design. To solve this, we propose extending the algorithmic design approach to also include the high-level description of architectural image creation. The methodology, Algorithmic Architectural Visualization (AAV), also contemplates the required preparation settings for the visualization process, and includes possible visualization productions inspired by film techniques.

summary	This paper presents a digital fabrication process for concrete which may be deployed for surface texturing, volumetric modification of material properties and 2D and 3D forming. We process concrete in its slurry state by locally injecting chemicals in solution which cause vigorous effervescent reaction to take place. By precise and controlled dispensing, using computer software and robotic hardware developed, we produce local differentiation in the finally set concrete artefacts. Our work contributes to additive and subtractive 3D manufacturing as well as functionally graded materials fabrication.
