The FACETS_LAB Facade Design and Engineering research group explores interlinking domains of facade design and engineering through augmented data-driven computational processes to drive transition towards sustainable, cost-optimal, resource-efficient Zero-Energy Buildings and communities. Furthermore, the research group investigates facades 4.0 design processes and performance simulation of adaptive facades from a human-centred design perspective and uses human-facade interaction as a basis for creating adaptive and personalised indoor environments for improving human-comfort, experience and wellbeing.
Internship Responsibilities
Depending on the interests and qualifications of the applicant, and on the current activities and priorities of FACETS_LAB, tailor-made internship programme and activities will be agreed with the successful applicants.
Current Priority Topics for the Internship
- Adaptive Facades Design (Smart Glass, Kinetic Shading Systems, LED Systems);
- Solar Design and Zero-Energy Buildings (Daylighting, Energy Generation from Building Integrated-Photovoltaics, Whole Building Energy);
- Facade Information Modelling (Artificial Intelligence Methods for Predictive Control and Optimal Behavior of Adaptive Facades and Buildings);
- Facades Virtual Prototyping (Physically-Based Visualization for Immersive Environments);
- Collaborative Facades (Human-Centered Façade Design and Operation).
