It is often unclear whether by architectural research we mean research about architecture, research through architecture or research for architecture. These three categories, borrowed from Christopher Frayling’s discussion on research in design and art, ar ...
Ines Lamuniere will exemplify the attitude of dl-a, / Devanthery & Lamuniere, in architecture by two of their most recent projects for city centers in Switzerland. The Opera House in Lausanne, the national TV Tower in Geneva and other projects still in des ...
This study shows the results of an experimental investigation of personal exposure to cough released droplets. Human body is resembled by a thermal manikin with a body shape and surface temperature distribution of a real person. The objective of the study ...
In this work, we present the technological constrains and limitations in the design of ultra-thin body Junctionless Vertical Slit Field Effect Transistor (JL VeSFET). A design space involving the intrinsic off-current, the sub-threshold swing, and the drai ...
Le projet s'inscrit dans la continuité d'un thème propre à l'architecture, celui du rapport entre l'ancien et le nouveau. Le tremblement de terre qui a touché, il y a un an, plusieurs villes de l'Emilia Romagna, dont Mirandola, impose une confrontation à l ...
The perceptual performance of architecture can be greatly altered by the ephemeral quality of daylight. Unlike artificial light sources, which can be adjusted to meet performance criteria regardless of geographic location and time of day, daylight is a var ...
This paper describes the contextual analysis of architecture with landscape methods as both design and teaching methodology. The methodology applies our understanding of research as design and design as research, and involves the evaluation of landscape ar ...
“Introduction to Civil and Environmental Engineering Design I” is a sophomore-level class, required of Civil and Environmental Engineering (C EE) majors at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The main objective of this class is to teach studen ...
For architects, real-time 3D visual rendering of CAD-models is a valuable tool. The architect usually perceives the visual appearance of the building interior in a natural and realistic way during the design process. Unfortunately this only emphasizes the ...
Sediment transport plays a key role in the morphological and ecological value of river ecosystems. The present study explores the design of sediment management measures for a flood control and revitalization project in an alpine valley of the Swiss Alps. T ...
