KINETIC WALL
Advisor: Professor Robert Cervelione Members: Marco Dwyer Adel Yaseen Nicole Jayco
A club commissioned project; to design, fabricate and install a motion sensor reactive moving facade with the aid of fabrication gears and using Arduino. Chipboard of 1/16” thickness, a bread board, 6 motors, and motion sensors, an isle and grey and green paint. The triangulated facade has 6 panels that were painted green, and coded to respose to a 6” proximity to the wall. After the file is ready for laser cut, first we mount the vertical components, and lock in the top layer of folded triangulated chipboard. The gears are attached from the back of the wall and connected to the motors, which connected to the usb.

COMPOSITE MATERIALS This study investigates the methods of digital fabricated structures through the use of rapid prototyping and computer-aided manufacturing. The work focuses on the formal and material limits of current fabrication technologies and develops digital modeling techniques to support contemporary design problems. The parametric pattern and 3d printed mesh allows material viscosities that pass through the aperture to create a new level in texture. The material must cure into solid state after passing through the mesh, so it can keep building a form. Materials: Plastic x y gird mesh, Natural Clay

COMPOSITE MATERIALS PARAMETRIC GRID: Testing from 2d to 3d, 2 methods to obtain an interesting textile pattern to use as a mesh network obtained using Rhino5/Grasshopper. Depending on apertures and material density the mesh allow materials in thick and fast drying characteristics to follow the form of the mesh. Once the material dries the history of the particles are frozen on the mesh. The layering of these materials that can build upon each other, closing each others gaps and creating a stronger structure.
Materials: 3d PLA printed mesh, Polymer Clay, Semi Flexible Foam

COMPOSITE MATERIALS Based viscosity and voids, the second layer must be at a complementing character. Therefore materials are extruded in separate stages so the density differences can overlay wholes and gaps, and strengthening its tensile strength.
Materials: Plastic mesh, Polymer Clay, Polymer purple paint, Cement, Semi Flexible Foam, Expandable Foam

THE INTERVENTION A pavilion from a custom parametric topology achieved, where the transformation from topology to pavilion becomes a natural intervention. The topology once milled will be able to address the characteristics of the pavilions fabric.

PARAMETRIC SURFACE ANALYSIS
Parametric surface 2” & 4” MDF CNC milled

THE INTERVENTION The undulating topology from the milled grid pattern is extracted into a 2d surface generated then into a 3D form. By converting the grid with cuts and scores, it gives flexibility to the fabric. The grid that was laser cut to test this method allows the components to move and show stress moments during the movement. We can achieve a a chnage in topolofy by pushing, pulling, stretching the fabric. The grid allowed to bulld interlocking components dependent of each other like a chain.

THE INTERVENTION This breathing surface then becomes the stress free moveable system that can changing topolgies through pushes and pulls. The components snap into each other and have spacing for friction and allowing movement. The components come together into a chain connection, all connected to each other. The space between components allow the chain to bend/undulate. The void spaces in between change as well allowing light to pass through the system. The patterns from the system blend into the micro-grid of the topological fabric creating a compositional intervention.

ADAPTIVE AND AUTONOMOUS TENSEGRITY SYSTEM
Advisor: Professor Philip Anzalone My Team Members: Adel Yaseen Starky Acevedo
The Adaptive and Autonomous Tensegrity System (AATS) is a project for incorporating a computation driven design-toinstallation work flow into building components, enabling the efficient automated design and deployment of differentialgeometry active structure with potential uses as part of an active faรงade system. Due to the flexibility properties of this tensegrity structure, the component will be able to expand and contract, it will track the sun and change its state accordingly. The frame alone, is extremely light yet very stable, this is due to the principles of tension and compression. The structure self-tunes in geometric formfinding, reducing internal stress, develops counter-vibration properties to dampening movement and reduces vibrations by dispersing the forces in the naturally resilient tensegrity system. The lightness of the structure reduces the need for extensive support to external structures, providing a less invasive attachment condition to new and existing buildings. The basis for the structure of the system is the use of tensegrity, an advanced structural concept that looks to the future in an innovative system where a continuous network of efficient axially loaded high-tension cables are configured with isolated structural compression members in such a way as to delineate the system spatially and provide a highly efficient, dynamic and exciting form.

RESOLUTION3 The festive theme for this year’s digital fabrication festival held in London was ‘Pop-up City’. We were invited to show our own transient Pop-up City. The aim for participating teams was deliver an experience that can conceptuality teleport through a few cities when you visit this pavilion from NYC. We also wanted to implement an educational moment through design and fabricate a pavilion that will make a distinctive and positive contribution to this micro-City festival. The rules are to create a self supporting, lightweight, structural testing with size limit 3m x 2.5m. The only challenge we faced were minimal tolerance differences of the metric system.

RESOLUTION3 Entrance to the pavilion was designed to be through the void of the Empire State building (vertical parameters 14-22). Resolution3 is a distributed network that resolves spatially through various viewpoints, creating a geometric and conceptual image of the city as a relationship between the system of cubes and the inhabitants. The Installation seeks to codify a world that is ephemeral and distributed, floating as a temporary networked assembly. The anonymous cubes collect to form a spatialized community, and dissolve into autonomous elements, creating the flux of the contemporary networked city. Like the participants, at the end of the festival the cubes will be disconnected and re-distributed through an act of communal dissolution. At the end of the festival, visitors will be encouraged to cut a portion of the insulation from the support grid and redistribute the elements throughout London, reinforcing the temporary nature of the city.

RESOLUTION3 My position in the team allowed me to work on every aspect of the project from computational design to mockups, material tests, documentation prep and building of each process (boxes, strings, structure, hanging). I specialized in designing and building the structure, managing the budget, and material selections.
