Presentation / Conference Contribution
ZAMANI, E. and DOUNAS, T. 2022. Discretisation design strategies: strategies to integrate design and fabrication through discretization. In Kouider, T. and Saleeb, N. (eds.) Proceedings of the 9th International congress on architectural technology (ICAT 2022): digitally integrated cities: closing the chasm between social and physical, 19-20 May 2022, London, UK. Aberdeen: Robert Gordon University [online], pages 1-15. Available from: https://drive.google.com/file/d/17KEcD4GshS1PpSyH6dTPGRwNfsBtYtan/view

In the present paper, we introduce a classification system, for discretisation strategies, based on the procedural differences. This paper has a particular focus on strategies explicitly positioned towards an integration between digital design, robot...

A generative design case study for UAV-based assembly and fabrication: parametric analysis and synthesis of Iranian-Islamic Muqarnas. (2021)
Journal Article
ZAMANI, E. and DOUNAS, T. 2021. A generative design case study for UAV-based assembly and fabrication: parametric analysis and synthesis of Iranian-Islamic Muqarnas. Open house international [online], 46(3): architecture in the age of disruptive technologies, pages 476-493. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1108/OHI-03-2021-0060

Purpose: This study proposes a DfMA (Design for Manufacture and Assembly) based on unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and uses Iranian-Islamic Muqarnas as the main case study due to their geometric modularity. In Islamic architecture, different geographic...

This study proposes a DfMA (from design to assembly) based on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and uses Iranian-Islamic Muqarnas as the case study due to their geometric modularity. In Islamic architecture, different geographic regions are known to have...
