Comparative Study on Shading Database Construction for Urban Roads Using 3D Models and Fisheye Images for Efficient Operation of Solar-Powered Electric Vehicles

Energies, 2022
Accounting for shadows on urban roads is a complex task in the operation of solar-powered electric vehicles. There have been few opportunities to compare the methods and tools for the construction of an effective shading database for urban roads.

The hidden geometry of MUSAC. Field systems as the origin of form in the contemporary project

Cuadernos de Proyectos Arquitectónicos, 2020
The origin of the contemporary project’s form has become an enigma. The process of drawing up a project ends up being a superimposed, diluted reality, hidden by the narratives constructed by their authors. At some point, in which the process becomes more
