title	The studio critique in architectural education
source	University of Adelaide, Adelaide, South Australia
summary	A feminist poststructuralist thesis about studio-based, architectural critique in architectural education. Undertakes a critical ethnography of a School of Architecture including extensive observations and interviews. The author argues from her location as a feminist researcher, architect and teacher that critique is not equitable for all students discriminating in many ways against some students, particularly women.

title	Info Exame magazine evaluation from heuristics for tablets
source	SIGRADI 2015 [Proceedings of the 19th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - vol. 1 - ISBN: 978-85-8039-135-0] Florianópolis, SC, Brasil 23-27 November 2015, pp. 239-247.
summary	The emergence of mobile reading devices such as tablets provided a new trend in the distribution of content in the universe of publications. As changes occur, many ways of consuming information are offered by digital devices. Thus, this study evaluated the application of the Info Exame magazine, regarding its accessibility, usability and user experience. As a method, the heuristics focusing on publications for tablets, proposed by Heikkilä (2013), were employed. Finally, the design was conceived as the very information tool, as it facilitates the connection between the print media and digital media.

title	The Structure of a CAAD Curriculum and the Nature of Design Process - An Experience Handling Contradictions
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2001.352
source	Architectural Information Management [19th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-9523687-8-1] Helsinki (Finland) 29-31 August 2001, pp. 352-357
summary	Teaching CAAD in the context of a design task is an idea derived from the problem based learning, PBL, movement. However, a PBL curriculum has rarely been implemented in architectural education, let alone in CAAD education. The development and implementation of a feasible PBL CAAD curriculum is described in this paper.

title	BiCi_N, a CT-scan of Barcelona
source	SIGraDi 2009 - Proceedings of the 13th Congress of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics, Sao Paulo, Brazil, November 16-18, 2009
summary	BiCi_N is a "living" map of Barcelona that visualizes the intricate relationship between the human body and the city. Using GPS (Global Positioning System) and A/V (Audio/Video) devices on Bicing bikes the city is understood from above and from below as a dynamic quantitative and qualitative ever-changing entity defined through the activities of numerous inhabitants. From these a collective story is assembled as users go about their lives. The bicycle as an extension of the human body into the city becomes a full-scale mapping instrument, which captures both the sensual/experiential and the scientific/abstract notation of the human body into the city body and viceversa.

title	Physical Design Cognition: A Non-Symbolic Formalization for Physical Computing
source	SIGraDi 2013 [Proceedings of the 17th Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics - ISBN: 978-956-7051-86-1] Chile - Valparaíso 20 - 22 November 2013, pp. 27 - 31
summary	This paper frames design knowledge as formalizable physical action for developing embodied computational design skills that can more fully exploit current and future digital fabrication prototyping methods. Digitally integrated prototyping tools reveal the physicality of cognition in computational design activity; however, because current theories of design knowledge define cognition as a mental process, physical computation design skills remain underdeveloped. We identify symbolic formalization as the root of this problem. We present a non-symbolic action-based notation drawing from embodied cognition as an alternative model for design cognition. Designerly knowledge is discussed in terms of reflective action and epistemic action.

title	Grader blade stabilization system
source	Automation in Construction 7 (5) (1998) pp. 385-389
summary	Graders are used for ground grading or levelling. The desired profile is achieved by passing the machine over the ground surface with appropriately positioned grader blade. Grading errors are caused mainly by vertical displacements of grader front wheels. These displacements, despite a considerable wheel base of the grader, are transferred through the frame onto the grade blade. Moreover the quality of surface levelling is also influenced by the compliancies of the ground, the chassis and the blade suspension system. In the paper a blade stabilization system is proposed. The blade adjustment system with hydraulically driven mechanism is controlled using position signals from the selected points of the machine.

title	Knitted Composites Tower - Design Research for Knitted Fabric Reinforced Composites Based on Advanced Knitting Technology
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2020.1.055
source	D. Holzer, W. Nakapan, A. Globa, I. Koh (eds.), RE: Anthropocene, Design in the Age of Humans - Proceedings of the 25th CAADRIA Conference - Volume 1, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand, 5-6 August 2020, pp. 55-64
summary	Faced with growing urbanization demands of developing countries and global shortages of construction materials, this research looks for an innovative light-weight high-performance material system for architectural applications. The knitted composites tower is a 7.2-meter, 260-kilogram and self-supported prototype that uses 2mm thick knitted fabric reinforced composites. The result is lightweight and strong. It demonstrates the design potentials of knitted fabric reinforced composites. This article takes knitted composites tower as an example to illustrate a design method for knitted fabric reinforced composites. The design method covers three aspects of structural form selection, structure arrangement, and microscopic configuration. At last, the complete fabrication and construction process will be discussed with a full-scale physical prototype.

source	CAADRIA 2006 [Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia] Kumamoto (Japan) March 30th - April 2nd 2006, 585-587
summary	CAD systems have a strong influence on design theory and practice. But even though they were widely used in the process of design representation or execution, their acceptance as an aid in the creative process remains poor. Beginning from this problem the paper outlines a design framework with broader aim the use of computation in the studio.

title	Architecture as a Digital Diagram
source	International Journal of Architectural Computing vol. 2 - no. 3, 371-387
summary	This paper results from interdisciplinary research about dynamic and transformational processes of conception, representation and spatial construction in Architecture. This work systematizes the common bases of the diagram offered by disciplines that deal with processes of representation, such as Cognitive Science, Logical Semiotics, Mathematical Logic and Philosophy, and of spatial investigation such as Topology and Architecture. It outlines operative components (trans, inter and intra-diagrams) and the diagram's phenomenological variables (thought, space, time) and establishes mutual relationships between it, digital media and Architecture, with the intent of developing the understanding of the digital diagram as an enhanced way of placing information in time and space.

summary	The article presents the pedagogical experience of the elective course “Feel the space: design with tactile models” held at the Institute of Architecture and Urbanism of USP / S?o Carlos in 2014. From the critique of the primacy of seeing, the experimental activity proposed a housing design process with a visually impaired person, using models, plants and tactile maps. Were investigated and compared the free use of materials and processes with the use of digital fabrication - MDF plates manufactured with a laser cutting machine. As a result, it is presented the tactile representation system developed in the activity.

summary	We present a shape grammar implementation with two new characteristics. One is that it is visual and directly manipulable: users draw the shapes and rules in a modeling application. The other characteristic is advanced technical capabilities, such as non-visual attributes and higher-order elements like surfaces. It consists of three components running in Rhinoceros3d. We also report on workshops that introduced the implementation.

summary	Omitting the "virtual": the organization of the space - that is architecture. How the design process itself has been changed by the new media, is the topic of this discussion - the process of designing in its penetration and extension into other techniques and media, for example video montage or image data banks. The process of designing becomes an electronic working of images differing substantially from the traditional process by the employed electronic devices.

title	What do architects and students perceive in their design sketches? A protocol analysis
source	Design Studies 18, pp 385-403.
summary	The present research aims at examining what information architects think of and read off from their own freehand sketches, and at revealing how they perceptually interact with and benefit from sketches. We explored this in a protocol analysis of retrospective reports; each participant worked on an architectural design task while drawing freehand sketches and later reported what she/he had been thinking of during the design task. This research lies within the scope of examinations of why freehand sketches as external representation are essential for crystallizing design ideas in early design processes.
