title	The use of simulation to evaluate design options on conceptual mass study phase
source	SIGraDi 2012 [Proceedings of the 16th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Brasil - Fortaleza 13-16 November 2012, pp. 458-461
summary	This paper presents the results of an exploratory study developed with the Autodesk Project Vasari and AutoCAD Civil 3D. Project Vasari was used to evaluate the environmental performance of a low-income housing project. It shows us that the actual site orientation of the project presents poor environmental performance, which could be improved by rotating building in 90 degrees. The AutoCAD Civil 3D was used to evaluate how that rotation should impact on earthmoving. The results showed that the simulations developed, even though having low level of accuracy, provide sufficiently clear information to support decision making on conceptual mass project stage.

summary	Extended Reality (XR) technologies have the potential to help and improve the teaching and design process in Architecture and Urbanism, as they offer different ways of perceiving and representing space and various functionalities. Therefore, it is important to systematize scientific production in this area. This research aims to identify and analyze the main applications of XR in teaching and in the design process in Architecture and Urbanism, as well as its benefits and limitations. A systematic literature review of publications on CumInCAD and SBTIC, from 2015 to 2022, was carried out. The results show the growing emphasis of XR as a medium that offers benefits both for teaching and design practice. However, there are still limitations to be overcome to make XR more inclusive. As a contribution, a greater understanding of how XR has been applied in teaching is provided along with a reflection on its impact on the means of representation in the design process.

title	Simulação do Desempenho Energético de Edifícios de Escritórios em Brasília [Energy performance simulation of Brasília’s office buildings]
source	SIGraDi 2009 - Proceedings of the 13th Congress of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics, Sao Paulo, Brazil, November 16-18, 2009
summary	This paper presents a parametric analysis where WWR and color glass was varied to determine their influence in the thermal performance of an office building’s room. Design Builder tool was used to calculate the thermal load and the internal gains. The WWR variation in different orientations resulted in a significant increase of the thermal load. The reflective glass allowed a better thermal performance of the room. With the use of computer simulation was possible to analyse many constructive and design characteristics of the facade and its influence on the results, when considered together.

title	Design of Bistable Deployable Scissor Structures Consisting of Translational Units Based on Flat Retraction Logic
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2023.2.541
source	Immanuel Koh, Dagmar Reinhardt, Mohammed Makki, Mona Khakhar, Nic Bao (eds.), HUMAN-CENTRIC - Proceedings of the 28th CAADRIA Conference, Ahmedabad, 18-24 March 2023, pp. 541–550
summary	The subject of this research is the study of the retraction change mode of deployable scissor grids based on the Hoberman mechanism. The retraction logic of this type of flat mechanism can be changed mainly by moving the pivot point of the rod and using bistable deployable scissor structures consisting of translational units. Therefore, the mechanism can remain flat while it retracts, and the irregular translational units allow for a greater variety of surface variations in the shape of the mechanism. Through the study of the scissor system, a simplified mathematical model is used to explore the geometric potential, and a formula for complete flat retraction is derived. Following the input of defined data using digital tools, the remaining translational scissor units that conform to the retraction logic are generated. Then, irregular linkage mechanisms are created that can retract from 3D to 2D, with the opening mode not being limited to the radial sphere or other mean geometries. These results provide a unique retraction mode for deployable scissor grids, thus facilitating the collection and transportation of such mechanisms in practical applications.

title	A Parametric Method in Room Acoustics Simulation With Performance Verification: Real-Time Ray Tracing Techniques in Parametric Modeling
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2024.1.405
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 1, pp. 405–414
summary	Since not all architectural projects can be involved in performance design calculations or optimizations, this study aims to reduce user technical barriers and enhance the visualization of the evaluation process. This paper introduces a parametric approach to room acoustics simulation, offering an interactive interface for modeling and simulation. By using Rhino-Grasshopper as a real-time ray tracing interface, both the Image Source Method (ISM) and Early Scattered Method (ESM) are employed for ray particle rebound tracking and analysis. The feasibility and analysis of spatial acoustic assessment tools are explored through the combination of data visualization and open-source parameter design meth. This research diversifies spatial models using various modeling tools like Revit, ArchiCAD 25, Rhinoceros 3ds, and SketchUp. This approach enables the evaluation of the effects and disparities caused by different modeling systems on simulation calculations. Furthermore, this paper also highlights the potential optimization of the Building Information Modeling (BIM) design workflow process. The results underscore the relationship between improved simulation accuracy and the utilization of numerical calculations, referencing benchmark simulation software ODEON for data comparison and review.

summary	The emergence of virtual reality technology now brings the possibility of new design methods. Virtual reality technology allows architects to feel space better and express design ideas more intuitively. With the interactive perception equipment and VR glasses, geometric shapes can be created and modified in a virtual environment, replacing the mouse and keyboard to complete the creation of space in the early stage of the design process. At present, the application of virtual reality in the architectural design process has some problems include unnatural interaction, low accuracy, high work cost. This paper will summarize the interactive methods of virtual reality technology in various current cases and compare the input and output of the device by analyzing the matrix method. We can explore interactions that are beneficial to architectural design. Using these interactive methods, we can expand the interface relationship between humans and the virtual environment.

title	The Representing Capacity of Physical Models and Digital Models
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.1999.053
source	CAADRIA '99 [Proceedings of The Fourth Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / ISBN 7-5439-1233-3] Shanghai (China) 5-7 May 1999, pp. 53-62
summary	Physical models are used in order to elucidate the lack of clarity found in the two-dimensional representations of design, and digital models have provided a more effective way of differentiating curvature and space with greater accuracy. What are the fundamental differences of these two approaches that plays the most significant role in modern design? This research attempts to analyze in depth the differences by operating an experiment that would determine the factors play a relevant role and describe some of the relevant phenomenon and establish criteria to aid this analysis.

title	Smart Semantic Query of Design Information in a Case Library
source	Digital Design - Research and Practice [Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures / ISBN 1-4020-1210-1] Tainan (Taiwan) 13–15 October 2003, pp. 125-136
summary	This paper is aimed to establish a smart query mechanism based on the semantic relationship among design cases in a case library, Case Base for Architecture (CBA). A case is composed with three levels of design information: “general”, “analytical” and “recommendation”. The data mining technique is applied to analyse the case information of CBA and extract a list of keywords of design concepts and knowledge from the analytic information and recommendation. By clustering and ranking the semantic relations of those keywords on the strength of machine and addressing them to selected design cases, we can organise the semantic relations among cases. Based on the results, we build a primary query interface to help users to retrieve and inspire their associative reasoning for design thinking. The semantic query mechanism is presented and discussed.

title	The STG Pattern: Application of a “Semantic-Topological-Geometric” Information Conversion Pattern to Knowledge Modeling in Architectural Conceptual Design
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2016.435
source	Living Systems and Micro-Utopias: Towards Continuous Designing, Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Computer-Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia (CAADRIA 2016) / Melbourne 30 March–2 April 2016, pp. 435-444
summary	Generative modelling tools have become a popular means of composing algorithms to generate complex building forms at the conceptual design stage. However, composing algorithms in order to meet the requirements of general design criteria, and communicating those criteria with other disciplines by means of generative algorithms still faces technical challenges. This paper proposes the use of a “Se- mantic-Topological-Geometric (STG)” pattern to guide architects in composing algorithms for representing, modelling, and validating de- sign knowledge and criteria. The STG pattern aims to help architects for converting semantic information concerning the situations of a project into design criteria, which are usually composed of topological relations among design elements, in order to explore the geometric properties of building components by means of generated 3D models.

title	Information Mining within a Case Library Visual Links of Correlation among Cases
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2003.249
source	CAADRIA 2003 [Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / ISBN 974-9584-13-9] Bangkok Thailand 18-20 October 2003, pp. 249-262
summary	This paper is aimed to establish the visual links of correlations among design cases in a case library for architecture, CBA. The study found that the keywords extracted from cases usually present certain information related to design concept, knowledge, problems or situations; and therefore, the links of those keywords can represent the correlations of those concepts or knowledge. Then the links of keywords can help users to understand the correlation between those concept or knowledge and further to prompt the correlation of cases where contain the design concepts or knowledge. Based on the previous works, the collected cases are clustered by the semantic relationships of keywords extracted from cases and the links of cases are presented with the links of keywords. Furthermore, the links of those keywords and the ranking of those linkages can be visualized to represent the correlation among cases for helping users to retrieve appropriate cases and facilitate associative reasoning based on the information embedded in those cases. The interface implementation and feedbacks are discussed.

source	Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / Yunlin (Taiwan) 22-25 April 2009, pp. 451-460
summary	This paper describes a prototype of an intuitive tool named Smart Topology for the architectural space allocation in the early design phase. Smart Topology focuses on the manipulations of virtual spaces and can build and operate the topological relation among them by instantly modifying the geometric properties of spatial allocation so as to comply with the topological relation defined by the user. Based on a prototype of an interactive tool for the spatial allocation named Spatial Layout Game (SLG), Smart Topology adds more topological operations into SLG, such as the connective, combining, orientating, and opening. It also tracks the manipulating process and results by applying the database technology.

summary	This paper proposed an ontology-based parametric modeling tool, “Design Criteria Modeling (DCM),” which applies a graphic predicative tool and semantic ontologies of architectural topology. DCM was intended to help architects in representing, exploring, and validating design criteria with parametric 3D model at the early design stage. By applying a reasoner of semantic ontology, architects could use DCM to determine whether conceptual models meet the semantic ontology of proposed design criteria.

source	Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / Yunlin (Taiwan) 22-25 April 2009, pp. 393-399
summary	The aim of the paper is to establish an ontology-based case encoding tool with sufficient formalization and expansibility to assist users for organizing the case information and increasing the feasibility of the design knowledge in a case library. The tool is named Open Case Study (OCS). OCS is a formalized and expandable tool for authoring metadata of a case library and organizing them by their semantic ontology. By using the templates constructed by design experts, such as design teachers or experienced architects, OCS provides the user with explicit but adaptable guidelines for case analysis and encoding. OCS then performs the searching and mapping function provided by Open Ontology. Thus, when the user is encoding the information segments of cases, relevant knowledge chunks in the case library can then be immediately provided, such as relevant senses in similar cases, all atoms of a relevant sense, and known value ranges of a relevant property. This assists users to avoid data mistake and duplication in encoding design cases.

title	Using APL to Explore the Non-monotonicity in Design Process
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2001.131
source	Architectural Information Management [19th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-9523687-8-1] Helsinki (Finland) 29-31 August 2001, pp. 131-136
summary	The phenomenon of non-monotonicity is commonly found in design process. In addition to the traditional deductive logic, this article introduces an Abductive Propositional Logic (APL) to capture some characteristics of non-monotonicity. Statements of APL are called beliefs, including believed facts and believed rules, to reflect that they are only true in some situations. Accordingly, beliefs can be deductively true or abductively possible with respect to different reasoning methods. On the other hand, APL employs three retraction rules, namely, exclusive retraction, conclusive retraction, and premise retraction to maintain the consistency. A case study is illustrated.

summary	Chinese gardens provide situated portals through which poets or artists can enter their imaginary worlds. Similarly, a visual interface (virtual environment) of a cyberspace provides entrances to this potentially infinite space. Derived from design principles of Chinese gardens, we propose a design method for creating virtual environments. We use this method to design and visualise several cyberspaces, including web sites, virtual Chinese gardens and 3D computer games. We conduct empirical studies and find virtual environments, created by the proposed method, provide users with experience correlated to the expected result.

summary	In order to understand the applicability of multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) to the building design process, a MDO framework, titled Evolutionary Energy Performance Feedback for Design (EEPFD), along with the prototype tool, H.D.S. Beagle, were developed to support designers with the incorporation of partially automated performance feedback during the early stages of design. This paper presents 2 experimental case studies, one from the design profession and the other from a design studio, that evaluate the applicability and impact of EEPFD on the early stage design process. Through these two case studies two different interaction and automation approaches for applying EEPFD are explored as part of the framework validation. Observed benefits, challenges and suggestions of EEPFD’s implementation are then presented and discussed.
