Parametric design : a paradigm shift?
… architects continued to rely on traditional design methods, which in most cases is synonymous with a process resulting in few slowly developed choices. More recently, the adoption of computational aids did not have a significant impact as the latter are primarily used as tools to facilitate …

Parametric design of floating wind turbines
… matures, it is evident that cost effective designs for floating wind turbines are needed. The next frontier for wind power is the ocean, yet development in near shore waters has been slowed by aesthetic concerns of coastal residents. Going further offshore eliminates these aesthetic concerns …

Parametric Design, Modeling, and Optical Evaluation of Retroreflective Prismatic Structures
… called right triangular prism (RTP). A parametric approach is used to model existing IC geometries from a generic unit cube and is then implemented to model the novel RTP geometry. Those elements are then tested by optical simulation software in single element and areal forms and their …

Parametric PAINTOVER: Generating Design Models via Image Encoders and Latent Trajectories
Design is an iterative process where physical or virtual prototypes are created, rendered, evaluated and modified repeatedly. Sketches and direct manipulations are made on the rendered or fabricated mediums to create and communicate intended changes. Parametric design is a prominent paradigm in …

Time domain reflectometry (TDR) techniques for the design of distributed sensors
Parametric design models were created to optimize cable sensitivities in a structural health-monitoring system. Experiments were also conducted to determine the sensitivity of a working system. The system consists of time domain reflectometry (TDR) signal processing equipment and specially designed …
