Assessing Self-shading Benefits of Twisting Towers
Journal of Facade Design and Engineering, 2020 Over the last number of decades, tall building geometries have been shifting from rectangular boxes towards shapes that are defined through geometrical transformations such as twisting. While, from an aesthetical point of view, these twisting geometries
