A Spatial Description Model and Utilities for an Intelligent CAD of Architectural Design

1. 设计师在他们的方案设计阶段使用三维建模系统仍然不常见，因为很少有商业系统成功地提供图形对象和实用程序，将很好地适应设计师的思想过程。为了解决这些问题，本研究分为三个主题。首先，回顾设计师所做的视觉表征与他们的思想之间的关系，提出一个能够很好地表达方案设计形象的空间描述模型，并为三维建模系统提供必要的工具。第二，开发一个系统，记录设计师的各种设计决策，如每个建模元素的含义和物理属性，供后期评估设计和修改设计模型时参考。第三，开发能够评价设计模型所继承的空间结构及其建筑意义的系统。报告由七章组成，第一章概述了本研究的背景和任务。第二章为方案设计研究提出的模型，第三章为设计模型的行为仿真模型。第四章和第二章的一部分报告了第二个主题，其中讨论了对设计模型的物理结构所作的决定。第五章报告了为第三个任务开发的SAL语言。第六章报告了TMS算法的使用，该算法可以支持启发式地制定特定空间结构的建筑平面图。第七章论述了本文的研究成果和未来展望。

1. It is not still common for designers to use three dimensional modeling system in their schematic design stages, because few commercial systems have succeeded in providing graphic objects and utilities that will well fit the process of designers' thought. To solve these problems there are three subjects in this study.2. First, reviewing relationship of visual representations that designers made and their thought, to propose a spatial description model that could well represent schematic design image and necessary utilities for a three dimensional modeling system.3. Second, to develop system that could record various designer's design decisions such as the meaning and the physical attributes of each modeling element, which could be referred in evaluating design and revising designed models in the later stage.4. Third, to develop system that could evaluate spatial structures and their architectural meaning that designed model inherits.5. The report consists of seven chapters beginning with the first chapter that summarized the background and the tasks of this study. Second chapter reports the proposed model for schematic design studies while the third chapter reports the model for behavioral simulation of designed models.6. The fourth chapter and a part of the second chapter report on the second subject, in which decisions made on the physical structure of designed models were dealt.7. The fifth chapter reports the SAL language developed for the third tasks. The sixth chapter reports the use of TMS algorithm that could support heuristically developing building plans of specific spatial structures.The seventh chapter discusses the achievements and future prospect of the studies.
