Computational Optimization for Design of Architecture and Engineering
A research group of the University of Ferrara
Research bridging computation and structural design/analysis.
We investigate computational methods for predictive structural optimization, adaptive systems and algorithmic design strategies in architecture and civil engineering.
We also offer external services to companies, public and private associations, building managers, citizens.
