Assignment 2.2
You will focus on engineered and scientific applications of smart materials and their use as smart products, and on their effects and actions on high performance building envelopes.
The analysis of design, engineering and manufacturing constraints related to emerging materials are linked to case studies of innovative skin/cladding/surface solutions within an integrated building envelope/assembly of components and systems.
Accordingly to your interests, you will link academic research with the practical experience of fabrication’s methods and techniques, opening up a dialog with the industry and the latest technologies applied to smart materials.
You are expected to contact leading academic figures and researchers in order to share updated information, but also companies and manufacturers to collect material samples and a variety of data on existing and/or future products and architectures.
Particularly, you will be involved with:
- 3D performance simulations, 3D modeling of your multi-layered building envelope;
