Sustainable and Regenerative Materials for Architecture
There is a creative explosion of work taking place in architecture and design schools exploring materials such as mycelium, clay/earth, engineered timber, bio-based plastics and algae. This handbook of low- and no-carbon materials for architects and designers focuses on sustainable materials, their sourcing, technical properties and the processes required for their use in architecture. The book showcases new and rediscovered processes for material fabrication, responsible sourcing and creative material design. Material properties (structural, thermal, fire, health and life safety) are described and case studies from around the world illustrate the inventive ways in which these materials have...

Chromogenics
Firsthand insights into the current and future technology and large-scale applications of color- and opacity-changing optical materials Chromogenics delivers a comprehensive overview of the industry-relevant scientific background of chromogenics and provides details on successful manufacturing techniques for the scalable fabrication of products, enabling readers to apply chromogenic materials in billion-dollar market segments such as the car industry (rear-view mirrors) and building and construction industries (self-tinting windows), as well as for individual end-user products such as sunglasses. This work includes contributions from developers of chromogenic products from leading companies ...
Thermal Energy
The book details sources of thermal energy, methods of capture, and applications. It describes the basics of thermal energy, including measuring thermal energy, laws of thermodynamics that govern its use and transformation, modes of thermal energy, conventional processes, devices and materials, and the methods by which it is transferred. It covers 8 sources of thermal energy: combustion, fusion (solar) fission (nuclear), geothermal, microwave, plasma, waste heat, and thermal energy storage. In each case, the methods of production and capture and its uses are described in detail. It also discusses novel processes and devices used to improve transfer and transformation processes.
Trans Structures: Fluid Architecture and Liquid Engineering
Architecture is based upon the misconception that strong is stable, both in sense of energy and structure, as an unchanged state of microclimate would require more material or insulation. Trans-structures are the opposite: building elements with the response-ability to change according to external conditions in order to maintain stability in terms of structure and/or energy. In this type of building, any effect (structural or thermal load) would generate an immediate affect (a response of the structure). Energy and weight would be counteracted and on a total scale, change would not occur. Such buildings are always in transition from one state to another, unlike conventional structures.
Trans Structures
The book introduces water as a building material to build unique, responsive-able structures and define a new paradigm for architecture and sustainable design.
