Toward autonomous architecture: The convergence of digital design, robotics, and the built environment

Interactive Form-Generation in High-Performance Architecture Theory

Architecture as a designerly way of thinking and knowing is to interact with its environment. The manuscript is to speculate “interactive form-generation” based on high-performance architecture theory, and discuss the precursors and the potentials. The research aims to explore and determine the roots, aspects of interactive architecture as a part of performance-based design in contemporary arch...

Design and Implementation of Digital Demodulator for Frequency Modulated CW Radar (RESEARCH NOTE)

Radar Signal Processing has been an interesting area of research for realization of programmable digital signal processor using VLSI design techniques. Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithms have been an integral design methodology for implementation of high speed application specific real-time systems especially for high resolution radar. CORDIC algorithm, in recent times, is turned out to...

The Impact of Built Environment on Walkability, Case Study: North-West of Shiraz

Nature, Politics and Architecture; Reading Out the Interaction of Nature, Politics and Culture Components in the Architecture Creating Process of Tabriz Blue Mosque

Tabriz Blue Mosque is a valuable historical monument from the 9th century AH, which has been built during the Kara - Koyunlu of Turkomans rule on northwestern Iran and about 35 years before the beginning of the Safavid Iranian government. This building has some features that make it to be distinguished from other monuments of the Azerbaijan region and even Iran. These features have attracted th...

Environment as a Pattern for Design. Case study: Shandiz valley in Mashhad - Iran

The aim of this paper is to review the created problems and failure of environmental design patterns in designing process by designers. Not respectfully addressing the context of environment during designing process have resulted in the loss quality of environment, damage to both nature and essence of environment as manifested in the case study area. Methodology of the research was based on the...
