The present research project has as it main objective the study of the design in Architecture, in its diverse aspects. Starting on the one hand with an in-depth theoretic study of this process, and on the other with research into the technologies of design evaluation, representation and automation, it is intended to propose new methods and develop tools which assist in the work of the arc…
The design of fenestration involves dealing with the weather conditions, which are dynamic and depend on the location considered. The dynamic facades, here understood as systems that have a glazed opening and movable mechanisms (manual or automated) for control of ventilation and sunlight, present the potential to promote environmental comfort and reduce energy consumption in buildings by…
Natural ventilation is na effective comfort passive strategy, especially in hot and humid climates, reducing the use of air conditioning. Among the ventilation strategies, highlight the sheds, roof vents which air collecting or extracting, depending on its location in relation to prevailing winds. Despite great potential, this devices are little used by the national architecture, devido t…

Natural ventilation is one of the most efficient strategies for passive thermal conditioning of buildings and their evaluation can be performed using various tools such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations and tests in the wind tunnel. CFD simulations are reliable tools in the scientific field, with graphical interface that facilitates parametric studies of natural ventilatio…
