Implementation of Curved Shape Grammars [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 2011
Research into shape grammar implementation has been largely concerned with rectilinear shapes and there has been limited research into implementation on shapes composed of curves. This reflects developments of the shape grammar formalism which has been defined largely according to straight lines, planes, and associated volumes.

Shapes, structures and shape grammar implementation [PDF]

open access: yesComputer-Aided Design, 2019
Abstract Shape grammars are a generative formalism in which dynamic changes to shape structure plays a vital role. Such changes support ambiguity and emergence, and as a result shape grammars are often used as the basis for proposed developments in supporting shape exploration in computer-aided design.

Regarding Rules: From Rimini to Rio

open access: yesJoelho, 2014
The legacy of Alberti’s 15th century treatise, De re aedificatoria (Alberti, 1988), on architectural theory and practice up to the present day is profound and wide-ranging. Indeed, the story of building over the last five and a half centuries is, in part,

Generating Circulation Designs Using Shape Grammars

open access: yesTsinghua Science and Technology, 2018
Shape grammars are well-known tools to explore abstract systems of shapes and their relationships. Although there has been much research on the use of shape grammars in the field of architectural styles, there has been little investigation into the ...

Progress and Challenges in Generative Product Design: A Review of Systems

open access: yesComputers, 2020
Design is a challenging task that is crucial to all product development. Advances in design computing may allow machines to move from a supporting role to generators of design content. Generative Design systems produce designs by algorithms and offer the

Shape grammars overview and assessment for transport and urban design: Review, terminology, assessment, and application

open access: yesJournal of Transport and Land Use, 2016
Shape grammars for urban design have attracted much interest in research and practice. Transport and urban planners increasingly deploy shape grammars, especially in simulations and procedural models.

Categorisation of designs according to preference values for shape rules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Shape grammars have been used to explore design spaces through design generation according to sets of shape rules with a recursive process. Although design space exploration is a persistent issue in computational design research, there have been few ...

(In)frequently asked questions: On types of frequency and their role(s) in heritage language variability

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
In recent years, researchers have become increasingly interested in exploring frequency as a source of variability in heritage speakers’ (HSs) knowledge of their heritage language (HL).

Using shape grammars as a rule based approach in urban planning - a report on practice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
With the development of user friendly software, using procedural shape grammars has become productive for urban planning projects. Little about the experience of their use by architects and urban planning agencies has been reported yet.
