SlowLoris can be web-based and is totally independent of all current energy data visualisation software and complementary energy plugins. It uses the Grasshopper interface and its components to construct graphs. It is mainly targeted at optimising the visual representation of energy results and does not need highly skilled experts to be used effectively.
In the next Ecology & Evolution Seminar Series, Negin Imani will be talking about her PhD research on bio-inspired energy efficient building design.
Movement and functionality in Calatrava’s works are more pronounced than that of Gaudi due to the different time periods and technological progress as well as the influence of constructivist architects. Calatrava was influenced by Gaudi in architecture. With the tone of the day and utilisation of structure and technology, Calatrava goes beyond his culture and traditions in the modern context.
A number of studies have focused on finding substitutions for petrochemicals as a source for manufacturing building insulation. Some investigations have identified insulation materials that have lower environmental costs, for example, those that are made of natural or recycled materials.
The range of innovative bio-inspired materials is not broad, and most of the published research seems to be about one-off cases. Current research on bio-inspired materials used in architectural and building science is reviewed, and a new classification scheme for clustering relevant data is presented.
Antoni Gaudi and Santiago Calatrava Antoni Gaudi and Santiago Calatrava have reputation for designing bio-inspired creative and technical buildings. Even though they have followed different …
Systematic literature reviews originated in biomedical science. They are methods to systematically identify, select and critically appraise evidence. They form the foundation of the process …
