Summary Biographical note: Milena Stavric studied Architecture at the University of Belgrade where she also received her PhD. Since 2004 she works at the Graz University of Technology, Austria. Predrag Šidanin studied Architecture at the University of Belgrade and later he completed MTD and PhD at the TU Delft in the Netherlands. He holds a professorship at the University of Novi Sad, Serbia. Bojan Tepavcevic studied at the University of Novi Sad in Serbia. He is currently assistant professor at the faculty of Architecture, University of Novi Sad, Serbia.
Making physical models of complex geometric shapes and their multiple structural connections is a major challenge in the age of advanced digital technology and parametric design in architecture. This approach requires new modeling strategies, technology and methods which are covered in this book. Complex geometric forms generated using virtual media can be tested and validated only by means of physical models, which also make it possible to assess their practical application. The complexity of contemporary architectural design requires the mastery of new methods of producing scale models, which opens a new chapter in the field of modeling, and is the focus of this book. Along with the traditional methods that provide the basis for modeling, this book presents the principles of digital NURBS modeling, parametric modeling, digital modeling support, and model creation, complete with a number of tutorials, practical advice and examples found in architectural practice today.
This book covers new strategies, technology and methods for creating advanced architectural scale models, including the principles of digital NURBS modeling, parametric modeling and model manufacturing. Offers numerous tutorials, examples and practical advice.
