Improving the quality of indoor environments is a main goal in today’s architecture. Towards this goal, the use of glass and curtain walls is common in office buildings. The building façade is a key factor for the amount of energy consumed to reach comfort levels in the building. That is, because facades influence lighting, glare, heat gain, noise safety and energy usage. Therefore, the use of glass improves transparency which can interfere with comfort levels inside the building due to solar heat gain. The Double Skin façade system is widely adopted in Europe and has been shown to reduce energy used for heating in cold weather. In winter, heat losses can be reduced as the system’s intermediate cavity acts as a thermal buffer. However, there is no clear understanding of how the system will perform in hot arid climate conditions where cooling is the dominant operating mode. A Double Skin Façade can provide shading during the overheating period, while having the desired glass elevations sought by designers. This is due to ventilation and solar control devices located inside the system’s cavity. Being placed between the interior and the exterior glass panels, solar control devices are protected from the weather, which in return decreases its size. Furthermore, the additional glass panel allows windows in the system’s inner layer to be opened for natural ventilation. Unfortunately, the performance of the Double Skin Façade system for hot arid climate is not well documented. Therefore, the primary goal of this research is to compare the thermal and light performance of the Double Skin Façade system to a single façade system for hot weather conditions.

Full textA smart building is an intelligent living space that elevates energy efficiency, comfort and safety. The word “smart” implies that the building would have a decision making system that can sense its conditions and reacts to them in an automatic and effective manner. Modem buildings contain many subsystems and, thus, to achieve automation, sophisticated sensing networks and robust control systems must be installed. The proposed research focuses on integrating several building systems—structural health monitoring (SHM), and structural and environmental controls—and explores synergy among them to improve efficiency and sustainability of buildings.
More specifically, an integrative, smart building system is developed by combining double skin façades and mass dampers in buildings to improve both safety and energy efficiency. Double skin façade systems protect and insulate buildings with two heavy glass layers between which air is allowed to flow for ventilation. By enabling movements in the outer façade skin, the façade can be used as a mass damper that reduces structural vibration and damage during earthquakes and wind storms. The added mobility also leads to innovative ways to control ventilation rate and improve energy efficiency by adjusting the gap size between the outer and inner skins.
In this dissertation research, the energy impact of the integrated system was first investigated. Then both passive and active structural control strategies were experimented and analyzed on a six-story shear building model. Results indicated the proposed system can significantly reduce structural response under the earthquakes excitations. In addition, the sensor networks and actuators introduced by the active structural control system were utilized for structural health monitoring purposes. The actuators provided harmonic excitations while the acceleration data were collected by the sensor networks to perform damage diagnosis.
Finally, since typical SHM systems require large networks of sensors that are costly to install, this dissertation research also examined using smartphones as alternative sensors. Using the aforementioned six-story experimental structure, a sensing system consisted of six smartphones was tested and proven effective in detecting structural damage. The experimental result demonstrates that further developments of smartphone SHM can lead to cost-effective and quick sensor deployments.

Full textThe basis of the project was the assignment of creating a small hotel in the town of Mariefred that would relate to the town in a meaningful way. To handle the conflicting needs of the hotel typology consisting of - on the one hand public, vibrant parts and on the other hand private, quiet hotel rooms - the project took inspiration from the trees in the assigned site which gave peace to a relatively lively place. The hotel’s various rooms, group of rooms and the plan has thus been inspired by a tree analogy. The project also has examined a plan characterised of rooms and functions connected in a flow with minimised space solely dedicated for circulation. Groups of rooms with specific functions is organised according to presumed flows of guests, staff and other logistics. Flexibility in the plan was also part of the process with the result of a big variety of interconnected hotel rooms and the possibility of temporary additional programs on the ground floor. A significant challenge in the process was to let the tree analogy stay as an inspiration for meaningful architecture without being pretentious. Another big challenge was to get the flowing, flexible room relationships to a functional floor plan and still be able to develop the project architecturally otherwise.

In architecture, natural light is one of the main factors to consider when designing a building or a room. A building has to be designed in such a way to allow the right amount of natural light in which influences the building occupants' visual and thermal comfort level. Curtains, blinds, shades, or shutters are the most common static shading methods currently used to regulate the amount of sunlight coming into a room. However, traditional blinds or shades cannot be customized with respect to fine-grain localized control, which can result in suboptimal indoor lighting levels when the blinds or shades are down. While static window treatments are practical low-cost options, they cannot offer the level of adjustment that dynamic shadings can provide. Majority of the time, occupants of a room have the freedom to adjust the shades; however, the shades are often left in one position since occupants are not willing to constantly adjust the shutters every time the outside environmental conditions change. Unlike traditional blinds, adaptive fac̦ades are designed to automatically adjust positions depending on the environmental changes or have the ability to be fine-grain controlled by the occupant. Because of the ability to respond to fluctuating weather conditions, adaptive fac̦ades can provide optimal indoor day lit space. The purpose of this thesis is to design and build a proof-of-concept prototype of a folding fan-shaped actuated adaptive facade system. Because of the scope of this thesis, the prototype is designed to fit in one of the windows at McCormick Hall instead of a full scale building fac̦ade. There are 13 fan-shaped shades units that can be individually controlled to reduce direct sunlight coming into the indoor space. The results demonstrate that this technology can be designed and built with a modest budget and commonly available tools to achieve high quality results for customized daylight control.

The world is and has been in constant change. Disruptive technologies have emerged and integrated into our day to day lives and have radically improved the way we live. Today, in our overly connected world technology is advancing at an incredible fast pace, firms have to change focus to keep up with the shift in the consumer behavior, megacities will continue to emerge; at the same time consciousness is growing towards more efficient and ecological solutions to solve the problems the world is facing what is leading to the redefinition of economic models. The automotive industry in particular is being disrupted to become mobility services companies instead of car makers. With the unquestionable need of people interacting with each other and the imminent need for innovation for any firm to subsist, the next step is to identify the best way the organization can foster interactions and communication between individuals where they are able to continuously innovate to achieve the substantially higher performance every organization is seeking for. Although Autonomous Vehicles are close to a production phase, there are still limitations to their deployment in the full ecosystem. This thesis provides a systems perspective approach by studying a large campus organization and offering a proposal to integrate Autonomous Vehicles technologies with the purpose of increasing face-to-face interactions while at the same time increasing productivity, innovation, and creativity to improve people's lives by facilitating human mobility staging a unique mobility experience.
