In a world where the construction industry is increasingly under the spotlight for its environmental impact, the demand for innovative design approaches has reached unprecedented levels. In response, this paper introduces an innovative design methodology that combines shape and topology optimization, with a focus on mitigating climate change and enhancing buildability, in the context of shell structures. Shape optimization typically involves refining existing designs, while topology optimization focuses on identifying optimal material layouts. Our methodology synergizes these two approaches, enabling the optimization of shape and material distribution, while considering Global Warming Potential and Buildability. This research contributes to advancing the ongoing transformation in spatial structures by topology informed shell structures, emphasizing the environmental challenges.

Abstract
In a world where the construction industry is increasingly under the spotlight for its environmental impact, the demand for innovative design approaches has reached unprecedented levels. In response, this paper introduces an innovative design methodology that combines shape and topology optimization, with a focus on mitigating climate change and enhancing buildability, in the context of shell structures. Shape optimization typically involves refining existing designs, while topology optimization focuses on identifying optimal material layouts. Our methodology synergizes these two approaches, enabling the optimization of shape and material distribution, while considering Global Warming Potential and Buildability. This research contributes to advancing the ongoing transformation in spatial structures by topology informed shell structures, emphasizing the environmental challenges.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
