Pine cones as a model: Researchers have developed a new, energy-autonomous facade system that adapts passively to the weather.

Pine cones as a model: Researchers at the universities of Stuttgart and Freiburg have developed a new, energy-autonomous facade system that adapts passively to the weather. The journal"Most attempts at weather responsiveness in architectural facades rely heavily on elaborate technical devices.

Material systems produced by this additive manufacturing technique called 4D-printing can autonomously change their shape in response to external stimuli. For the"Solar Gate," the researchers developed a computational fabrication method to control the extrusion of cellulosic materials using a standard 3D-printer, making it possible to harness the self-shaping and reversible behavior of the 4D-printed material system.

With recent requirements for reducing greenhouse gas emissions of autonomous ships, an emerging body of research is focused on assessing the path-following performance of maritime autonomous surface ...
