Generisanje prostornih struktura [23. Salon arhitekture]

Abstract

Sprovedeni eksperiment obuhvata istraživački rad u oblasti parametarskog, generativnog i interaktivnog dizajna. Ispitivanje analognih i digitalnih metoda generisanja prostornih struktura sastoji se iz tri celine. Prva celina podrazumeva istraživanje forme (form-finding) ljuski u dve faze primenom koncepta obrnutog visećeg modela. Dok se u prvoj fazi, proces traženja ravnotežnog oblika ljuske simulira upotrebom obrnutog visećeg analognog modela/makete u vidu mreže sastavljene od lančanica, u drugoj fazi se isti taj proces simulira upotrebom obrnutog visećeg digitalnog modela u vidu mreže sastavljene od štapova. Usvojena mreža kvadratne topologije formirana je korišćenjem spajalica/pravih linijskih elemenata shodno analognoj/digitalnoj metodi, respektivno. Druga celina podrazumeva istraživanje forme (form-finding) membrana, takođe u dve faze. Dok se u prvoj fazi, proces traženja ravnotežnog oblika mehanički prednapregnute membranske strukture simulira upotrebom analognog modela/makete od rastegljivog tekstila, ujednačenim zatezanjem tkanine preko prethodno postavljenih oslonaca zarad postizanja prednaprezanja u njenoj površi, u drugoj fazi se isti taj proces simulira upotrebom digitalnog modela u vidu diskretne mreže sastavljene od elastičnih štapova. Treća celina podrazumeva istraživanje forme (form-finding) svodova primenom Trust Network Analysis (TNA) metode, samo u sklopu jedne faze, i to u okviru digitalnog okruženja. Proces traženja ravnotežnog oblika svodne konstrukcije simulira se upotrebom digitalnog modela u vidu diskretne mreže sastavljene od štapova.

The experiment performed includes research work in the field of parametric, generative, and interactive design. Examination of analogue and digital methods of generating spatial structures consists of three parts. The first part involves form-finding of shell structures in two phases by applying the concept of inverted hanging model. While in the first phase, the process of finding the equilibrium shape of a shell is simulated using an inverted hanging analogue model/mock-up in the form of a mesh composed of chains, in the second phase the same process is simulated using an inverted hanging digital model in the form of a mesh composed of rods. The adopted mesh of square topology is formed using staples/linear elements according to analogue/digital method, respectively. The second part involves form-finding of tensile membrane structures, also in two phases. While in the first phase, the process of finding the equilibrium shape of a mechanically pretensioned membrane structure is simulated using an analogue model/mock-up of stretchy textile, by uniformly stretching the fabric over previously placed supports in order to generate pretension in its surface, in the second phase, the same process is simulated using a digital model in the form of a discrete mesh composed of elastic rods. The third part involves form-finding of vault structures by applying the Trust Network Analysis (TNA) method, only in one phase, and within the digital environment. The process of finding the equilibrium shape of a vault structure is simulated using a digital model in the form of a discrete mesh composed of rods.
