Exemple du projet Arena Naterre

2014

L’article traite de façon technique le travail réalisé sur le projet Arena Nanterre (projet de Christian de Portzamparc) à Paris dans le cadre d’une mission de BIM (Building Information Model). Notre engagement était d’aider tous les intervenants à concevoir et construire autrement le bâtiment grâce à la maquette numérique. Celle-ci a évolué et a été mise à jour tout au long des études pour permettre, d’un côté, un partage réel et instantané des informations et, de l’autre, une optimisation du projet en termes techniques, économiques ou encore de gestion. L’organisation mise en place a permis de créer une plateforme collaborative dans laquelle nous étions en charge de la gestion BIM de tout…

Split-Way CVTs: Parametric Analysis and Design

The thesis provides a parametric analytical method for the analysis and design of power-split continuously variable transmissions, which represent the state of the art for heavy-duty vehicles and hybrid electric cars. The functioning of any driveline is described by mean of a simple set of kinematic parameters, regardless of the constructive scheme. The calculation of the control torques remains straightforward even when both inertial effects and mechanical losses are taken into account. A simple design procedure is described and generalized in order to address any order of driveline, including multimode transmissions. The final layout is generated additively, without the need to analyze hu…

AHBIM for Wooden Built Heritage Conservation

2019

The chapter investigates the potential offered by the Building Information Modeling for the conservation of the wooden architectural heritage. Based on the architectural survey, the BIM modeling of a South Tyrolean farm was carried out, with particular attention to the aspects related to its management and maintenance. Inside the database connected to the model, information about the building has been included, which can also be used on site through the use of mobile devices. The sharing of such information within a single platform avoids risks connected to the failure or incorrect transmission of data, allowing the optimization of the management, maintenance and conservation of the archite…

Parametric Experiments in Architecture : a Connection Joint Design for Sustainable Structures in Bamboo

2023

This book offers a comprehensive overview of the use of bamboo in the building industry. It systematically demonstrates bamboo’s utility in terms of its properties, describing the material properties of typical industrial bamboo products, and discussing their performance evaluation and optimization as building components and in the creation of building envelopes. The book presents the recent developments regarding the innovative ways to design and represent architecture through parametric survey tools, and describes the experimental geometrical-generative design process of a connection joint for free-form lightweight structures employing beams made of bamboo culms. It examines algorithmic-g…

Architects as tool consumers: discovering trends in software and programming languages for Architecture with Google Trends

2019

Architect professional figure and skills have undergone innumerable evolutions throughout human history, and although the architect's task is always substantially to design buildings and spaces, the use of digital tools has undoubtedly marked the greatest change in architectural design since the Renaissance, if not since the time of Vitruvius (Sacchi 2018). However, when we talk about the relationship between architecture and digital tools, we immediately think about projects of some contemporary architects and researches of some important academics come to mind. Digital tools are now everywhere within the fragmented world of architecture: from multinationals firm with offices in the major …
