PARAMETRIC AND RULE BASED DESIGN
(objectives)
IN THIS CLASS, STUDENTS EXPERIMENT WITH THE NEW DESIGN TECHNIQUES LINKED TO DIFFUSION OF NEW INSTRUMENTS OF PARAMETRIC MODELLING, DIRECTLY LINKED TO ANALYSIS AND DIGITAL MANUFACTURING TOOLS. THE AIM IS TO EXPOSE THEM TO THE EVOLUTION OF PROFESSIONAL PROFILES BRINGED BY NEW INSTRUMENTS. THIS IS DONE THROUGH LECTURES, A SELECTION OF PROJECTS, BUT ALSO MEETINGS IN PERSON WITH COMPANIES AND PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THE NEW FIELDS, THROUGH DEDICATED SEMINARS. THE KEY IS THAT AT THE SAME TIME STUDENTS HAVE A DIRECT EXPERIENCE OF THE INSTRUMENTS BY USING THEM IN THE CLASS. THROUGH THEIR OWN WORK, THE LINKS WITH THEIR COLLEAGUES IN A SHARED WEB PLATFORM, AND THE LINK WITH OTHER PARALLEL CLASSES, ALLOWED BY THE COURSE. IN THIS WAY, THE COURSE AIMS AT HAVING THEM UNDERSTAND THROUGHOUT AND WITHIN THEIR OWN EXPERIENCE, THE NEW PRODUCTION METHODS OF CONTEMPORARY ENLARGED DESIGN TEAMS, WHERE PROJECTS ARE DEVELOPED PASSING SEAMLESSLY FROM DIGITAL MODELING OF CONSTRUCTIVE COMPONENTS AND OF THEIR ASSEMBLY SEQUENCE TO PRECISE CONTROL OVER DESIGN GEOMETRY, STRUCTURAL AND ENERGY ANALYSIS, UP TO DIGITAL MANUFACTURING OF THE FINAL OUTCOMES.
