Pinskier, Josh (author), Wang, Xing (author), Liow, Lois (author), Xie, Yue (author), Kumar, Prabhat (author), Langelaar, Matthijs (author), Howard, David (author)Soft grippers are ideal for grasping delicate, deformable objects with complex geometries. Universal soft grippers have proven effective for grasping common objects, however complex objects or environments require bespoke gripper designs. Multi-material printing presents a vast design-space which, when coupled with an expressive computational...journal article 2024

Yu, Hao (author), Fu, Jiabo (author), Wang, Chenchong (author), Chen, Yinping (author), Wang, Lingyu (author), Fang, Haixing (author), Li, Jinguo (author), van der Zwaag, S. (author), Xu, Wei (author)To achieve an effective design of additively manufacturable Ni superalloys with decent service performance, a hybrid computational design model has been developed, where the strategy to tailor local elemental segregations was integrated within a scheme of minimizing the cracking susceptibility. More specifically, the phase boundary of primary...journal article 2024

Garner, E. (author), Wu, J. (author), Zadpoor, A.A. (author)Patient-specific implants offer a host of benefits over their generic counterparts. Nonetheless, the design and optimization of these components present several technical challenges, among them being the need to ensure their insertability into the host bone tissue. This presents a significant challenge due to the tight-fitting nature of the...journal article 2023

Çubukçuoglu, C. (author), Nourian, Pirouz (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author), Tasgetiren, M. Fatih (author)The paper proposes a generative design workflow for three major hospital layout planning steps to satisfy multiplex configurational requirements. The initial step is stacking through clustering functional spaces into floor plans, for which a spectral method is presented. Subsequently, a novel simultaneous process of zoning and routing is...journal article 2022

Oskam, P.I.J. (author), Bier, H.H. (author), Alavi, Hamed S. (author)Minimal interventions that provide various microclimates can stimulate both biodiversity and social accessibility of leftover spaces. New habitats are often developed for different animal and plant species based on studies of the microclimates typical of such residual spaces. By introducing interventions of 0.5-1.0 m diameter ‘planetoids’ placed...journal article 2022

Çubukçuoglu, C. (author), Nourian, Pirouz (author), Tasgetiren, M. Fatih (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author), Azadi, S. (author)Hospital facilities are known as functionally complex buildings. There are usually configurational problems that lead to inefficient transportation processes for patients, medical staff, and/or logistics of materials. The Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) is a well-known problem in the field of Operations Research from the category of the...journal article 2021

Alkadri, M.F. (author), De Luca, Francesco (author), Turrin, M. (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author)As a passive design strategy, solar envelopes play a significant role in determining building mass based on desirable sun access during a predefined period. Nowadays, advancements in the area of computational tools permit designers to develop new methods for establishing solar envelopes. However, current approaches lack an understanding of the...journal article 2020

Çubukçuoglu, C. (author), Ekici, B. (author), Tasgetiren, M. Fatih (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author)Most of the architectural design problems are basically real-parameter optimization problems. So, any type of evolutionary and swarm algorithms can be used in this field. However, there is a little attention on using optimization methods within the computer aided design (CAD) programs. In this paper, we present Optimus, which is a new...journal article 2019

Yang, D. (author), Ren, Shibo (author), Turrin, M. (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author), Sun, Y. (author)The benefits of applying multi-objective optimization (MOO) in building design have been increasingly recognized in recent decades. The existing or traditional computational design optimization (CDO) approaches mostly focus on optimization problem solving (OPS), as they often conduct optimizations directly by assuming the optimization...journal article 2018
