The Building of Free-Form Customized Immobilizers
Medical Dosimetry, 1990Unusual immobilization problems occur in radiation therapy. A solution using styrofoam sheet and blocks, mylar sheet and urethane foaming chemicals is suggested here. The technique is extremely versatile and produces a light weight and reliable immobilizer.

Thermal characteristic prediction models for a free-form building in various climate zones
Energy, 2013Abstract The purpose of this paper is to suggest a simple way of determining the thermal characteristic of free-form buildings, which can be applied at an early stage of the design phase. The thermal load of a reference building estimated using TRNSYS 16 is compared with those for various free-form buildings that have the same envelope area as the ...

Fast implementation of Oliker's ellipses technology to build free form reflector
SPIE Proceedings, 2013The field of illumination optics has a number of applications where using free-form reflective surfaces to create a required light distribution can be beneficial. Oliker’s concept of combining elliptical surfaces is the foundation of forming a reflector for an arbitrary illuminance distribution.

Optimization of a free-form building shape to minimize external thermal load using genetic algorithm
Energy and Buildings, 2014Abstract This study aimed to propose an optimization process for a free-form building shape in terms of the thermal load characteristic in the early design stage. Geometric modeling of a model free-form building was performed using a parametric design method with Rhinoceros.

Static Solar Shading of a Free-Form Building with Shade-Z
2016Proper positioning and sizing of windows are essential for supplying sufficient amounts of daylight into a building. On the other hand, windows are often the source of excessive insolation causing glare and overheating, which have negative impact on the energy performance of a building, and most importantly - on the comfort and well-being of users ...

Structuring Free-Form Building Envelopes [PDF]
, 2012 In contemporary architectural design, the definition of envelope geometry often precedes consideration of its material build-up. The geometries created in such a top-down manner require subsequent rationalisation for construction. This thesis addresses methods for the aesthetic and efficient structuring of arbitrary surfaces while respecting distinct ...

R2R Fabrication of Free-Form Organic Photovoltaics for Building Façades
2019The true freedom of design is a key advantage for building applied, building integrated and interior energy harvesting. VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland Ltd has developed a mass production method based on printing technologies to manufacture 2D-patterned printed solar modules to meet desired visual appearance for buildings and to form a value ...

The BIM simulation systems involve inefficient aspects in delivering real world circumstances because they are operated in the virtual reality (VR) environment without representing the job-site operations. Differently from VR, augmented reality (AR) enhances the reflection of job-site reality to virtual environment.
