| summary |
The paper advocates an iterative approach, whose cycle is synthesized in the title, towards integrating exploratory geometric design with fundamental structural validation. The approach is geared towards the creative architect seeking free yet buildable forms on his own, in a CAD environment, without the premature intervention of the structural analyst checking design codes. Extraction of natural modes of vibration (eigenforms), within the method of finite elements, is the proposed vehicle for structural form-finding. A string of evolving illustrative examples is given. |
