Multi-Objective Optimization For Shading Devices in Buildings By Using Evolutionary Algorithms
(IEEE, 2016)
The reduction of energy consumption is a major challenge around the world. Architectural aspects have a significant place to minimize energy consumption to the maximum level. The use of large glazed facades causes overheating ...
Interior Spatial Layout with Soft Objectives using Evolutionary Computation
(IEEE, 2016)
This paper presents the design problem of furniture arrangement in a residential interior living space, and addresses it by means of evolutionary computation. Interior arrangement is an important and interesting problem ...
Review of simulation modeling for shading devices in buildings
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2016)
Many countries around the world are confronted with the challenge of decreasing energy consumption, while the use of electrical appliances is continuously increasing in buildings. The requirement to minimize the energy ...
A Multi-Objective Self-Adaptive Differential Evolution Algorithm for Conceptual High-Rise Building Design
(IEEE, 2016)
This paper presents a multi-objective self-adaptive differential evolution algorithm to solve the form-finding problem of high-rise building design in the conceptual phase. The aim of the research is to reach suitable ...
Engineering Performance Simulations in Architectural Design Conception Atrium in Shenyang: a case study on thermal mass
(ECAADE-EDUCATION & RESEARCH COMPUTER AIDED ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN EUROPE, 2013)
The paper tackles the integration of engineering performance simulations in the conceptual phase of architectural design, with specific focus on parametric design processes. A general framework is exemplified, in which the ...
Evolutionary Computation for Architectural Design of Restaurant Layouts
(IEEE, 2015)

Multi-Objective Diagrid Facade Optimization Using Differential Evolution
(IEEE, 2015)
Facades constitute one of the fundamental systems of contemporary buildings. They serve multiple purposes, such as to ensure proper indoor climate, to provide sufficient daylight, but also to create a desirable architectural ...
Optimisation of energy consumption and daylighting using building performance surrogate model
(UNIV MELBOURNE, 2015)
Today, the architects are expected to identify solutions that provide best trade-offs among an excessively large number of possible design alternatives. Within this context, computational intelligence techniques prove to ...
Designing Self-Sufficient Floating Neighborhoods Using Computational Decision Support
(IEEE, 2015)
Floating settlements, which introduce further design complexities over traditional developments, have become an alternative for urban development due to climate change and shortage of land. This study aims to develop a ...
Conceptual Airport Terminal Design using Evolutionary Computation
(IEEE, 2015)
Passenger terminals are very complex buildings not only in their function, form and structure but also in infrastructure, security, comfort, energy, which deal with huge investments, both in terms of capital, as well as ...
