Description & Coverage
Description:

The emergence and adoption of computational technologies has significantly changed design and design education beyond the replacement of drawing boards with computers or pens and paper with computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and computer-aided engineering (CAE) applications.

Computational Design Methods and Technologies: Applications in CAD, CAM and CAE Education explores state-of-the-art developments in computational design methods and their impact on contemporary design education. Readers will find case studies, empirical research findings, pedagogical theories, and reflections. Researchers, educators, designers, and developers will better understand how applying pedagogical research and reflection has influenced and will continue to transform the field in the future.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Augmented Reality in Design Curriculum
  • Computational Design Applications
  • Computational Design in Education
  • Computational Design Methods and Technologies
  • Computational Design Pedagogy
  • Computer-Aided Design (CAD)
  • Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE)
  • Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM)
  • Interactive Architecture Design
  • Parametric Design
Reviews & Statements

This book reflects on the current trends and inspires future extensions in the advancement of computational design methods and technologies as well as the evolvement of design and education under such influences, by exploring and challenging the interactive relationships between the two. With such foci, the book provides unique references for design research, education and practice [...]

Editor/Author Biographies
Ning Gu is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Architecture and Built Environment at the University of Newcastle, Australia. He researches in the broad areas of design computing. He is particularly interested in collaborative design, generative design, and virtual worlds. Ning is a pioneer of applying leading-edge Information Technologies in design and learning, and has established an international collaborative design studio using Second Life. He has also designed and implemented a wide variety of collaborative virtual environments and applied them in his teaching and research in numerous Australian and international tertiary design institutions including the University of Newcastle, the University of Sydney, MIT, and Columbia University. He has published extensively in the fields of design computing and design education.
Xiangyu Wang is Professor in the School of Built Environment at Curtin University. Dr. Wang is an internationally recognized leading researcher in the field of Virtual (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) in Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC), Education, and Training. He was awarded US National Science Foundation grant to investigate the skill development and transfer from virtual training systems. His current focus is on Building Information Modelling (BIM), AR, and VR integration for AEC and Education/Training. He is the Chair of Australian National Committee of International Society in Computing in Civil and Building Engineering (ISCCBE). He has been invited to give several keynote speeches in BIM research and industrial conferences in Asian area. His work has been published into over 170 refereed books, book chapters, technical journals, and conference papers.
