Inverse Design Methods for the Built Environment

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book, from one of the pioneers of inverse design applications in the built environment, introduces the basic principles of inverse design and the specific techniques which can be applied to built environment systems. Chen's inverse design concept uses the desired enclosed environment as the design objective and inversely determines the systems required to achieve the objective. The book describes the fundamentals of the methods for beginners, provides exciting design examples for the reader to duplicate, discusses the pros and cons of each design method and points out the knowledge gaps for further development.
