Perceptual, comfort and health aspects of natural lighting in a space

Marilyne Andersen

This presentation will explore the multifaceted nature of daylight performance in architectural spaces by discussing ongoing research regarding the dynamics of daylighting performance considering three interpretations of “well-being” in a space: as a human ...

Load path and prestressing in conceptual design related to Maillart’s Vessy bridge

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet

This paper analyses Maillart’s Vessy Bridge from a design point of view using thrust lines. As it has previously been shown that Robert Maillart used graphic statics to design the line and the structural features of his bridges, it proves appropriate to re ...

Studying edge geometry in transiently turbulent shear flows

Tobias Schneider

In linearly stable shear flows at moderate Reynolds number, turbulence spontaneously decays despite the existence of a codimension-one manifold, termed the edge, which separates decaying perturbations from those triggering turbulence. We statistically anal ...

Robust Image Reconstruction from Multiview Measurements

Pierre Vandergheynst, Gilles Puy

We propose a novel method to accurately reconstruct a set of images representing a single scene from a few linear multiview measurements. Each observed image is modeled as the sum of a background image and a foreground one. The background image is common t ...

Wire Mesh Design

Mark Pauly, Bailin Deng, Akash Garg

We present a computational approach for designing wire meshes, i.e., freeform surfaces composed of woven wires arranged in a regular grid. To facilitate shape exploration, we map material properties of wire meshes to the geometric model of Chebyshev nets. ...

Application of hybrid glass-timber elements in architecture

Pieter Christian Louter, Manuel Santarsiero, Paul Ehret, Philipp Eversmann

The following paper explores the application of hybrid timber-glass elements on semi-continuous architectural structures. The use of glass as a structural material opens multiple fields of investigations. Beyond structural matters and safety issues, archit ...
