Download or read book Modeling Our World written by Michael Zeiler and published by ESRI, Inc.. This book was released on 1999 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geographic data models are digital frameworks that describe the location and characteristics of things in the world around us. With a geographic information system, we can use these models as lenses to see, interpret, and analyze the infinite complexity of our natural and man-made environments. With the geodatabase, a new geographic data model introduced with ArcInfo 8, you can extend significantly the level of detail and range of accuracy with which you can model geographic reality in a database environment.

Download or read book AM Envelope written by Holger Strauss and published by TU Delft. This book was released on 2013-01-29 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows the potential of Additive Manufacturing (AM) for the development of building envelopes: AM will change the way of designing facades, how we engineer and produce them. To achieve today’s demands from those future envelopes, we have to find new solutions. The term ‘AM Envelope’ (Additive Manufacturing Envelope) describes the transfer of this technology to the building envelope. Additive Fabrication is a building block that aids in developing the building envelope from a mere space enclosure to a dynamic building envelope. AM offers the opportunity to manufacture facades ‘just in time’. It is no longer necessary to store or produce large numbers of parts in advance. Initial investment for tooling can be avoided, as design improvements can be realized within the dataset of the AM part. AM is based on ‘tool-less’ production, all parts can be further developed with every new generation. The basic principle of AM opens a fascinating new world of engineering, no matter what applications can be found: to ‘design for function’ rather to ‘design for production’ turns our way of engineering of the last century upside down. A collection of AM applications therefore offers the outlook to our (built) future in combination with the acquired knowledge.

Book Stereotype Spaces and Algebras

Download or read book Stereotype Spaces and Algebras written by Sergei S. Akbarov and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-08-22 with total page 871 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term “stereotype space” was introduced in 1995 and denotes a category of locally convex spaces with surprisingly elegant properties. Its study gives an unexpected point of view on functional analysis that brings this fi eld closer to other main branches of mathematics, namely, to algebra and geometry. This volume contains the foundations of the theory of stereotype spaces, with accurate definitions, formulations, proofs, and numerous examples illustrating the interaction of this discipline with the category theory, the theory of Hopf algebras, and the four big geometric disciplines: topology, differential geometry, complex geometry, and algebraic geometry.

Book Building Energy Modeling with OpenStudio

Download or read book Building Energy Modeling with OpenStudio written by Larry Brackney and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook teaches the fundamentals of building energy modeling and analysis using open source example applications built with the US DOE’s OpenStudio modeling platform and EnergyPlus simulation engine. Designed by researchers at US National Laboratories to support a new generation of high performance buildings, EnergyPlus and OpenStudio are revolutionizing how building energy modeling is taught in universities and applied by professional architects and engineers around the world. The authors, all researchers at National Renewable Energy Laboratory and members of the OpenStudio software development team, present modeling concepts using open source software that may be generally applied using a variety of software tools commonly used by design professionals. The book also discusses modeling process automation in the context of OpenStudio Measures—small self-contained scripts that can transform energy models and their data—to save time and effort. They illustrate key concepts through a sophisticated example problem that evolves in complexity throughout the book. The text also examines advanced topics including daylighting, parametric analysis, uncertainty analysis, design optimization, and model calibration. Building Energy Modeling with OpenStudio teaches students to become sophisticated modelers rather than simply proficient software users. It supports undergraduate and graduate building energy courses in Architecture, and in Mechanical, Civil, Architectural, and Sustainability Engineering.
