IMPLEMENTATION OF COMPUTER MODELING METHODS IN THE DESIGN OF NONLINEAR ARCHITECTURE OBJECTS

Statement of the problem. A systematization of modern computer-based methods of envelope surface geometrical modeling (system of bearing structures and enclosure which form exterior face surfaces) which are used in nonlinear architecture is necessary. Consideration of problems of geometrical surfaces which can be used as a base of spatial structures and coverings. Results. A comprehensive analysis of possible variants of complex form computer modeling in nonlinear architecture has been developed. The methods have been described which allow a designer to create on the basis of specified geometrical model parameters. The work also features a study of their physical characteristics by means of numerical procedure and visual effects generation of complex computation. Possible ways of effective implementation of computer modeling capabilities have been outlined. The method can be used to tackle a wide range of design projects. Conclusion. The main types of envelope forming in architecture of buildings and structures have been determined, the method of optimization of complex forms surface modeling process in architectural design has been proposed.
