Dynamic Interaction of Solids as a Design Tool (1990)
article⁄Dynamic Interaction of Solids as a Design Tool (1990)
abstract⁄Architectural form and order can sometimes be described as having dynamic characteristics. To capitalize on this notion, physical qualities mass, velocity, material elasticity, and friction are given to objects. The objects are set in motion and allowed to interact at will with each other and their environment. The physical qualities are the rules that govern the outcome of interactions. As a result, interactions can lead to affine transformations translate, scale, rotate, reformations topological editing, andor deformations geometrical editing of the objects. The designer can investigate the effects of interaction between dynamic elements, vary their physical qualities, and evaluate the appropriateness of the outcome as a solution to the design problem.
