SE Bionics and Nodeless Structures
Bachelor's Programme Architecture According to the curriculum 2019
Held by : assoz. Prof. Mag. Dr. Andreas Holzinger from botany department, Hasan Hadi Abdulameer
Learning Outcome
we perspective the students gain insights into specific perspectives of biomimetic structures in architecture and set individual emphases. In the course "Bionics and Nodeless Structures" we will examine and understand the anatomy of biological forms and how we can transform the patterns and processes of botanic joints into structures. The course has two important parts, the analysis and the design in digital environment. The final output of the documentation will include the individual study as well as the digital and physical models from the projects.
Contents
Include a basic knowledge about biomimicry, bionics, biomimetics in structures of architecture and methods of analyzation the botanic anatomy patterns, as well as the strategies of transforming the patterns to 3D forms in detailing manners. Subsequently, we will implement our understanding in the digital environment by considering anatomical pattern in plants joints in order to create and build joints elements. Within the course, we will learn from theory to practice and at the end they will apply their understandings to physical prototype.
Assessment
Course examination according to § 6, statute section on "study-law regulations".
