Translational design computation
… demonstrates and implements translational design computation: a theoretical approach and technical framework for mediating living and nonliving matter through design computation. I propose that computational design can act as a "language" for the enablement of design at the intersection of …

Translational design computation
… the dichotomy between the physical and digital design domains into a symbiotic unity. New capabilities in digital fabrication give rise to sophisticated tools of computational design, while new affordances in computational design inspire innovation in digital fabrication. The role of design in …

Material-based design computation
… and material, deeply embedded in modernist design theory, paralleled by a methodological partitioning between modeling, analysis and fabrication, resulted in geometric-driven form generation. Such prioritization of form over material was carried into the development and design logic of CAD. …

Linking design to finance : enabling a co-operative developer platform through automated design and valuation
… are altering the practice and position of urban design and development. These shifts - the torrent of micro-spatialized data, the amplification of designer instrumentality through computation, and the financialization of built capital into abstract securities - are forming a new relational …

Photonic crystals : from theory to practice
In this thesis, we explore the design, computation, and analysis of photonic crystals, with a special emphasis on structures and devices that make a connection with practically realizable systems. First, we analyze the properties of photonic-crystal slabs: 2d periodic dielectric structures that …

A Study of the Differences in Responses of Students and Alumni of Two Types of Nurse-education Programs, to Questions Regarding Communication with Dying Patients
… hospital. Data were collected according to the design. Computation and analysis of data revealed that there were no significant trends toward differences in the performance of students and practicing alumni of the two programs. The tendency for practicing nurses to score somewhat higher than the …

Site reliability against anomalous behaviors
… cross-traffic. In this dissertation, we aim to design computation- and memory-efficient large-flow detection algorithms to effectively mitigate the large-flow damage in adversarial environments. We propose three large-flow detection schemes: Exact-Outside-Ambiguity-Region Detector (EARDet), …

Robotic Fabrication Workflows for Environmentally Driven Facades
… have been left behind and architectural design processes have not evolved at the same rate. This research presents design to fabrication workflows that explore data driven design to improve performance of facades, implementing for this purpose computational tools to handle environmental …

Fear of code : an approach to integrating computation with architectural design
Computation has enormous creative potential for designers. Unfortunately, many factors, such as the considerable investment required to learn programming, have prevented it from entering into common use. By analyzing the barriers to working with computation and suggesting directions for future …
