Innovative design tool for the optimization of blast-enhanced facade systems [PDF]
In current blast enhancement design strategies, to resist the effects of an accidental explosion, a facade system is commonly designed to behave in-elastically and undergo large deformations. The large deformation of the facade system leads to high blast

Specific problems of media facade design [PDF]
During the last years we have been facing a growing need of involving architects into processes of modern city medialization. Transposing contemporary media logic into architecture must be accompanied by qualitative answers within architectural theory ...

Bridging Horizontal to Vertical Radiative Cooling. [PDF]
Radiative cooling materials are mature but only work facing the sky, confining them to rooftops. Instead of developing new ones, this system bridges existing horizontal coolers to vertical windows using blades outside the glass. On an occupied urban building, windows stay up to 1.4°C below air temperature while preserving daylight, outward views, and ...

Energy performance of a hybrid DSF-inspired solar heating façade for office buildings [PDF]
Double-skin façade (DSF) is a passive design strategy that enhances building energy performance and improves indoor thermal comfort. In addition, DSF has been proposed as a hybrid façade that uses a cavity to preheat fresh air supplied to an air-handling
