This research workshop will explore three-dimensional problems
in the static equilibrium of mesh systems. Through an interdisciplinary
collaboration between computer science and architecture, we
will develop design tools for determining the form of three-dimensional
mesh systems under gravity loads. The goal of the workshop
is to develop real-time design and analysis tools which will
be useful to architects and engineers in determining the form
of efficient structural systems. Research topics include,
but are not limited to: mesh generation, physical simulation
procedures, interactive design tools, computer graphics, and
mathematics of nodal systems.
Students will be evaluated based on attendance, research
presentations, and the completion of a final project.
Readings to be distributed.
