Methodology and Tools for Testing, Numerical Analysis and Design of the 3D Printed Moulds

The large-scale 3D printing technology created by a group of partners led by DUS Architects allows fabricating components made of thermoplastic polymers with Fused Deposition Modelling technique. These components can be used as moulds for concrete elements, providing freedom of form and unprecedented optimization opportunities. In this report...

Evaluation of an integrated GIS-based crime analysis & 3D modelling for Izmir-Konak municipality

GIS integrated 3D modelling is crucial for the city planning and design processes because urban modelling is a tool used in virtual environments, and provides convenience to work. Although, the creation and display of 3D city models for large regions is difficult it is vital for planning and designing safer cities, as well as public places....

Micromilling of hardened tool steels

Miniaturized parts are increasingly demanded in different fields like medical, transportation, environmental, and communication industries. In order to manufacture these parts in an economical way, mass replication methods, such as micro injection molding, have to be applied. Currently, Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) process is mainly used to...

A Design Procedure and Predictive Models for Solution Crystallisation Processes

WAYS to study and research urban, architectural and technical design

This methodological book describes eight forms of study and research as they relate to design: 1) naming and describing; 2) design research and typology; 3) evaluating; 4) modelling; 5) programming and optimising; 6) technical study; 7) design study; 8) study by design. It includes the views, design related research projects and research methods...
