city of love and light;” It’s what makes Dubai the mega economic city that prospered in less than a decade.

I am Veronica Nashat Adly Zaky, an Architecture Undergraduate Student at The American University in Cairo. Living for the first 18 years of my life in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, I have developed skills for visualizing and seek authenticity and aesthetics. The city is one of the worlds’ mega cities dictating futuristic architecture in a conservative culture. In my quest for better social skills and communications , that already characterize me, I traveled to seek exposure to new cultures, societies and architecture. I pursued Architecture as my Major because it’s a cultural dictator. It’s what makes Paris “the magnificent

In my quest for education, architecture has exposed me to not only a broader idea of structural systems and their technicalities, experiences, and implementations. Every year in the program was a milestone from designing to the public and community participation, to designing for the environment and the LEED Certificate .T designing for form and functionality and the dilemma that generates between the two concepts, to using a set of grids and guidelines to define borders. To further designing for education centers using Architectural Structure that manipulates user experiences. and to applying the structure in real construction. This year is a different kind of challenge, Design V is the cultural, aesthetically concern of Egyptian and NeoIslamic elements in El-Korba. Came in parallel the opposing design mind set that allows for the design of extensions based on natural phenomenas, that may or may not be contextual. “Designing for Sound Digitally” is the story for the upcoming portfolio.

“The Natural Phenomena”


3 Functions of Kinetic Energy of the Valve as depicted in an Ultrasound.

The Heart-Valve Kinetic Motion The heart valve is a mode of “Travel Regulators” of blood who’s motion is caused by an electric pulse from the SA node (Pacemaker). Motion caused by “Pressure” of blood contracted in the heart by the pulse. The Kinetic Energy of a valve is converted into the “Sound Energy” of a heart beat. From here, the physical concept of converting sound energy to kinetic energy and the reverse process is derived.

-The initial concept was to develop an automated/responsive air control and lighting/shading system, which could be incorporated in a new kind of building skin. -The distinctive properties of the material should not only become a mere actuator replacement but be orchestrated for their aesthetic qualities. EAP is a highly attractive component for kinetic architectural applications due to its extreme flexibility, lightness,thin dimensions and smooth actuation.

8 “The Parametrized Abstraction” Attraction of opposing charges, the film is squeezed in the thickness direction (up to 380%) Repelling charges between equal charges on both electrodes results in a linear expansion of the film. The film gets thinner and the surface area increases.

Electro-Responsive Design The attached experiment shows the attempt to create an electro-active responsive element at The American University in Cairo. The materials used, (shown in the figure on the right), are merged using a polymer and left to bond under heat.

The Experimentation with Materials The experiment presented is student produced at the American University in Cairo under the supervision of MENG TA Dina Hesham.

10 Experimentation “Conclusion” Dynamic - Each component has an influence on the neighboring component - Act together as a structure - Not each one on its own - The pattern and the rotation angle in which panels are arranged tests the durability of the prestretched material. - Changes its shape in two ways. First, due to the attraction of the opposing charges, the film is squeezed in its thickness direction. Second, the repelling forces between equal charges on both electrodes result in a linear expansion of the film Rhombic frame bends when the material is in its relaxed condition. After the high voltage is applied, the material expands, and the component flattens out. Kinetic Motion Possibilities • Dynamic • Each component has an influence on the neighboring component • Act together as a structure • Not each one on its own

Stage 1 - Phase III “The Motion” Veronica Zaky


14 Conceptual Motion I “Pressure vs Flow” The responsive electro-active element mimics the heart motion in its expansion and contraction which creates the flow of blood into the valve. Relationship between pressure and flow in open valves. The pressure drop, across an open heart valve relates to the flow rate, Q, through the valve: If: • • • •

Inflow energy conserved Stagnant region behind leaflets Outflow momentum conserved Flat velocity profile

Stimulus: Pressure Response: Contraction + Flow

Conceptual Motion III “From Kinetic to Sound Energy” The Valve Motion 1- Electric Energy - Received Energy 2- Kinetic Energy - Valve Motion is governed by - Pressure and direction of positively charged blood 3- Sound Energy - A result of valve motion of closing flaps The heartbeat happens as follows: 1- The SA node (pacemaker) 2- The heart chambers contract or pump blood through the valve. 3- The closure of the valve flaps in the repetitive motion create two distinct “heart sounds” commonly referred to as the heartbeat. Stimulus: Kinetic Motion (Valves Open/Close) Response: Sound (Heart Beat) Conceptual Motion III “Kinetic to Sound Energy Applied” Sound is a mechanical form of energy which travel in the form of wave, Mechanical wave that is an oscillation of pressure this pressure created by the sound could be used to convert it into electric energy or other form of energy.

The Sound-scraper is a futuristic structure designed to transform auditory vibrations from bustling cities into a source of clean energy. The Sound-scraper is covered with noise-sensitive cilia that harvest kinetic energy while soaking up urban noise pollution. Each of the 84,000 lashes is armed with sound sensors called Parametric Frequency Increased Generators. Once the noise is picked up, an energy harvester converts the vibrations to kinetic energy. Transducer cells then convert the energy to electricity, which is stored or distributed to the grid for regular electric use.

45 Model Iterations in chronological order from left to right.

The Model Evolution Explained The model generation process evolved as the course proceeded to improve skills on Rhino modeling software. The model generation was based on building 2 zones encompassing a social outdoor node. The model design started with building a rail to sweep a basic element across. It later developed into a TSPLine model that can generate complex surfaces to design for different experiences.

47 A Form Generation Concept The concept is based on the motion of the sound intensity of circulating students around Quick Courtyard.

Stage Reflection “ The Design of Sound Responsive Experiential Building” The form generation stage has resulted in form that allows user circulation and penetration within the greater mass. The structural decisions resulted in the use of steel frames and secondary steel beams that would allow for the building’s structural authenticity. Furthermore, the parametric screen/ facade design allows for the form and function to be integrated within the AUC Context.

Social Inclusion Dynamic Solid - Void Shift The design process began with mapping the social and circulation behaivior in the SSE courtyard, as mapped in red in the figure on the left. The users circulate across a single path while rarely clusterig in courtyard corners or around the seating areas designed there. Mapping the sound intensity in relation to the students circulation, the form subtraction is caused by the sound intensity, creating a void within the soild that accentuates the user social behavior. This is where the exhibition is zoned. Zone Separation

Stimulus: Sound Frequency Response: Kinetic Architecture The building is separated into 2 components. Each component has an influence on the neighboring component - Act together as a structure the pattern screen responds to the concept of a self - deployable structure. • Inflow activity conserved • Outflow momentum (circulation) conserved
