2D-Hygrothermal Simulation of Historical Solid Walls
(2016)The analysis and the knowledge of the historical building masonries are key elements in preserving and enhancing their heritage value in a conscious way. The paper aims at simulating the hygrothermal behaviour of several ... -
3D Shape Grammar of Polyhedral Spires
(2016)Any random words can be put together – but in most cases they would not constitute a meaningful sentence. Similarly, any geometry can be used as the shape of a building or an architectural element, but in most cases ... -
A General Theory for Finding the Lightest Manmade Structures Using Voronoi and Delaunay
(2016)A general theory for finding the lightest possible structures is introduced in this article. Then a special centroid form of the theory is introduced. This special form will later help in the implementation of the general ... -
Ambient PET(b)ar
(2016)This paper speaks about ambience in architecture in the flow and results of experimental design studio Achten/Nováková in Summer semester 2016 that cooperated with PET-MAT, a research team focusing on recycled plastic in ... -
Backcasting and a New Way of Command in Computational Design
(2016)It’s not uncommon that analysis and simulation methods are used mainly to evaluate finished designs and to proof their quality. Whereas the potential of such methods is to lead or control a design process from the beginning ... -
BIM as a Transformer of Processes
(2016)The use and implementation of BIM technology, BIM software and BIM processes are still new to the Architect, Engineering and Construction industry. Adopting BIM in a project involves more than just a software update. The ... -
BIM to GIS and GIS to BIM
(2016)Designing of a building and urban planning are two different professions. Apart from the professional knowledge the data, the scale, the applied software are all different. However, these two areas depend on each other. ... -
CAADence in Architecture: Back to Command: Proceedings of the International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design
(Faculty of Architecture, Budapest University of Technology and Economics, 2016) -
Changing Tangent and Curvature Data of B-splines via Knot Manipulation
(2016)Modifications of B-spline knot values change the parametrization and influence the shape of B-spline curves. Via these computations one can modify B-spline data (derivative, curvature value at a curve point, some points ... -
Classification of Parametric Design Techniques, Types of Surface Patterns
(2016)The main objective of this paper is to classify the techniques of para-metric design, and make the existing classification system more exact. The previously created classification was based on shape and logical aspects, ... -
Complexity across scales in the work of Le Corbusier, Using box-counting as a method for analysing facades
(2016)Since Benoît Mandelbrot raised the question about the length of Brit-ain’s coastline in 1967, it has become obvious that fractal geometry is appropriate for describing irregular forms. In 1996 Carl Bovill applied box-counting, ... -
Connecting Online-Configurators (Including 3D Representations) with CAD-Systems, Small Scale Solutions for SMEs in the Design-Product and Building Sector
(2016)As small and medium enterprises, such as craftsmen in the building sector, are often unable to invest in larger scale software solutions, full-blown on-line product configurators with embedded real-time 3D rendering appeared ... -
De-Script-ion: Individuality / Uniformity
(2016)On the one hand, I am fascinated by a phenomenon that creates richness and harmony in nature, like trees of the same kind sharing the same characteristics and being individually unique. On the other hand, in contemporary ... -
Developing New Computational Methodologies for Data Integrated Design for Landscape Architecture
(2016)The form language of the currently ongoing trend of parametric design remains often symbolic and arbitrarily interchangeable. In order to counteract this general trend within landscape architecture, the increasing ... -
Enhancing Housing Flexibility Through Collaboration
(2016)Flexibility is a solution employed in housing from the twentieth century, in which allows space adaptation to its residents. In addition to creativity, various materials assisted this transformation over the years, improving ... -
Forecasting Lifetime of Components in Building by Using BIM
(2016)Because the conservation of buildings constructed during Japan’s period of high economic growth is now an urgent problem, this paper reports on the development of a method of forecasting the time between problems of building ... -
Geometric Modelling and Reconstruction of Surfaces
(2016)New technological environment is present in civil engineering and used in academic education. It is also used in geometric research. This paper presents some examples of different technology, used in surface modelling, ... -
Half Cadence: Towards Integrative Design
(2016)This paper projects an alternative vision of integrated design that is more open, fluid, pliable, and opportunistic in its search of collaborative alliances and agendas. This alternative approach is referred to as integrative ... -
Horizontal Load Resistance of Ruined Walls, Case Study of a Hungarian Castle with the Aid of Laser
(2016)The use of laser scanning technology for surveying historical buildings or ruins is gaining widespread popularity. While the “manual” surveying methods are time-consuming and provide just rough guess about the shape of the ... -
Identification of Required Processes and Data for Facilitating the Assessment of Resources Management Efficiency During Buildings Life Cycle
(2016)Construction resources including materials, labors, and equipment are extremely cost extensive in all construction projects. The management of these re-sources is a complex process, which significantly affects construction ...
