Abstract:In the current trend towards implementation of kinetic elements in buildings facades, a significant role is played by materials characteristics of integrated elements, and its effect on the responsive behavior of kinetic facades towards varying ambient conditions, represented through its motion and transformation strategies. After reviewing a wide range of kinetic facades researches, it was noticed that different research methodologies have been adopted mainly to study the apparent and general characteristics … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
