A typology of adaptive façades. An empirical study based on the morphology of glazed facades
Cogent Arts & Humanities, 2021 A building’s façade is its main interface with the external environment. Adaptive façade, one recent invention in the façade industry, has the capability to change its behaviour in real-time to respond to internal and/or external parameters, by means of ...

Climate-Adaptive Façades with an Air Chamber
Buildings, 2022 The development of energy-efficient technologies at all stages of a building’s life cycle is essential to achieving sustainable development goals. The object of the study is climate-adaptive façade structures with air gaps in the form of a Trombe wall ...

Adaptive partitioning of urban facades [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2011 SIGGRAPH Asia Conference, 2011 Automatically discovering high-level facade structures in unorganized 3D point clouds of urban scenes is crucial for applications like digitalization of real cities. However, this problem is challenging due to poor-quality input data, contaminated with severe missing areas, noise and outliers. This work introduces the concept of

Adaptive facade systems - review of performance requirements, design approaches, use cases and market needs [PDF]
, 2015 The paper reflects the work of COST Action TU1403 Workgroup 3/Task group 1. The aim is to identify research needs from a review of the state of the art of three aspects related to adaptive facade systems: (1) dynamic performance requirements; (2) facade ...

A Redesign Procedure to Manufacture Adaptive Façades with Standard Products
Journal of Facade Design and Engineering, 2018 Although their potential for high environmental performance is largely accepted, adaptive façades have not yet become widespread in practice. Most of the current examples are developed by engineer-to-order design processes, as project-oriented, custom ...

Evaluation of Adaptive Facades: The Case Study of AGC Headquarter in Belgium
Challenging Glass Conference Proceedings, 2016 The evaluation of adaptive facades presents a challenge because there is no established evaluation strategy to systematically reach this goal and many of the available façade performance evaluation tools have limited applicability for such advanced ...

Towards New Metrics for the Characterisation of the Dynamic Performance of Adaptive Façade Systems
Journal of Facade Design and Engineering, 2018 Traditional façade characterisation metrics such as U-value and g-value are of limited value in the design process of buildings with adaptive façades.

A Neural Network Architecture for Figure-ground Separation of Connected Scenic Figures [PDF]
, 1991 A neural network model, called an FBF network, is proposed for automatic parallel separation of multiple image figures from each other and their backgrounds in noisy grayscale or multi-colored images.
