Physics-Aware Machine-Learning-Driven Inverse Design of Broadband Ultra-Open Acoustic Metamaterials. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)A physics‐aware machine‐learning framework enables inverse design of ultra‐open acoustic silencers by decoupling spectral and radial design spaces. The approach rapidly identifies broadband, compact, and highly ventilated architectures, while revealing hidden linear design rules that link geometry, impedance matching, and acoustic performance.

Innovative Devices for Daylighting and Natural Ventilation in Architecture [PDF]
, 2012 It is known that every human activity is better carried out in the presence of natural light than in the absence of it. This is probably due to the comfortable feeling of the occupants respect to the perception of the flowing of time, which is impossible when artificial lamps are the only light sources in the environment.
