INNOVATIVE STRUCTURES FOR DYNAMIC SOLAR FAÇADES
Abstract eng: Recent studies have investigated the use of tensegrity structures for the construction of active solar façades of Energy Efficient Buildings (EEBs). The present work moves along such lines by proposing a methodology that supports the development of the design and construction process of new façade components with tensegrity architecture. The activation motion of the examined tensegrity façade system mimics the dynamics a blinking sail. The use of the proposed façade system as a dynamic sun-screen or a wind-energy harvesting device is presented, with the aim of illustrating the application of tensegrity architectures to the design of next-generation dynamic solar façades of EEBs.
