Simulation the Natural Living Structural Systems to Achieve Sustained Architecture

Abstract

Architectural and ecological development model can be identified by studying genetic evolution of living beings and their surrounding environment, which makes every one of them complement the other, an integral part of it, and the basis of its existence. Architects started to get back to nature to look for the keys for building sustainability, because elements of nature are a creative, rich, and useful source of inspiration and learning for architects and designers to present sustainable designs. Getting inspired by or simulating living forms should not lead to making exact copies of them. The real lesson is to benefit from the substantial idea and the basis of the natural system composing it. This leads us to the problem of the present study: There are no enough local studies on the importance and role of living nature simulation in terms of shape, composition, and structural systems to create sustainable systems. Hypothesis of the study is: the harmony shown by natural, organic structures resulting from the integration of shape with structural function can be employed in architecture shapes and structures by merging shape and function in a symbiotic relationship resembling to a great extent biological , genetic development in their re-formations appearing in natural organic structures. Aim of the study: Discovering formational and environmental constraints of elements of nature and emerging with applied indications in the field of constructional systems simulation of living nature and the possibility of transferring them to accomplish sustainable architecture. The results and conclusions shows the need , importance and effectiveness of Simulation the Natural Living Structural Systems to Achieve sustained Architecture ,and the integration of technical solutions to create a balance between the natural environment and the manufacturers and energy exploitation, and the adoption of passive systems and merged with the systems design, integration between nature and technology. Finally we got that the final conclusions and practical framework and recommendations.
