The almost seamless integration of computation, fabrication and immersion technologies in architecture not only constitutes potentials for exploring design instances through multiple media but also changes design paradigm from form-formation to form-formation-exploration. In this sense, multiverse of design as proposed in this study and integration of various design technologies from virtual to real aims to advance higher-order thinking skills and a more exclusive design exploration in computational design process. Undoubtedly, the multiverse of design cannot be handled without emerging technologies temptingly easing fabrication in both physical and virtual realms. On the other hand, such technologies can easily be deceptive in regard with scale, choice of material, details and etc. Therefore, how and which modes of exploration (physical or virtual) should be integrated into the design process is critical. ``Exploration of design'' in the realm of new technologies does not only connote a formal exploration of design and its performance but it also becomes a way learning/thinking of design enhancing critical thinking and constructivist learning. Within the scope of this study, the multiverse of a form(ation) is explained thoroughly and exemplified through snowflake pavilion which is issued to 4th year and graduate students in the scope of an elective studio course. Snowflake pavillon comprises physical, virtual and mapped reality as a triskelion for immersive experience for visitors.

Distributed adaptive output feedback control design and application to a formation flight experiment
Kutay, Ali Türker; Calise, Anthony J.; D'Andrea, Raffaello (2005-01-01)
An approach for augmenting existing distributed controller designs for large-scale interconnected systems with neural network based adaptive elements is proposed. It is assumed that the controllers are interconnected in the same way as the plant and based on the available measurements, a single hidden layer neural network is introduced for each subsystem to partially cancel the effects of the sub-system interconnections and modeling errors on tracking performance. Boundedness of error signals is shown throu...
Linear static analysis of large structural models on pc clusters
Özmen, Semih; Toker, Kurç; Department of Civil Engineering (2009)
This research focuses on implementing and improving a parallel solution framework for the linear static analysis of large structural models on PC clusters. The framework consists of two separate programs where the first one is responsible from preparing data for the parallel solution that involves partitioning, workload balancing, and equation numbering. The second program is a fully parallel nite element program that utilizes substructure based solution approach with direct solvers. The first step of data...
Immersive design environments for performative architectural design: a BIM-based approach.
Akın, Şahin; Gürsel Dino, İpek; Department of Architecture (2020)
In architectural design processes, the use of shared, simulated, and synchronized virtual environments and computational methods becomes widespread. Virtual reality immerses users in a three-dimensional digital environment and has the potential to make them involve actively in the act of design. Daylighting is an essential concept in architectural design, but its assessment and integration to the design process can be complicated. The use of Building Information Modelling (BIM) tools is identified as a crit...
