Lighting impact on architecture student experience in higher education buildings in Egypt

To highlight the essential role of lighting in higher education buildings, this field survey was conducted to explore students' subjective assessments of daylight utilization within the drawing halls in the architectural departments of higher educational buildings that located in Cairo, Egypt, and the surrounding areas. With 854 participants, the primary objective was to explore the participants’ evaluation of the lighting source impact on students' satisfaction, preferences, moods, wellbeing and behavioral states. Additionally, it sought to measure the significance of daylight as a design factor. The research findings reveal that the importance of the provision of daylight is equal to that of achieving thermal comfort, an imperative consideration in Egypt's hot climatic context. It was found that daylight significantly enhances students' satisfaction within drawing halls. Moreover, it exerts a positive impact on students' moods, and behaviors, notably reducing the occurrence of psychological and physiological symptoms, such as stress and headaches, while promoting greater cooperation and interaction among students. This study highlights the fundamental role of daylight in the design of drawing halls, not only for its aesthetic qualities or energy conversation potential, but also for its profound impact on the well-being and students’ satisfaction. It advocates for the strategic integration of daylight in educational facilities to create environments that are conducive to learning and holistic development.

Design of exhibition halls in historical buildings of the 20th century

The article raises the issue of adapting the space of historic buildings for exhibition installations, as the exhibition is one of the modern effective ways to demonstrate the cultural and historical heritage of society. Historical monuments are a valuable architectural heritage, so when designing an exhibition space in them, it is necessary to take into account all aspects that will ensure the preservation of the building’s authenticity. The purpose of the article is to study and analyse the methods of designing exhibition halls in 20th-century buildings. The following methods are used: the historical method, the method of comparative analysis, and the systematic method. The study found that exhibition design is one of the most influential management tools in the process of gaining new experiences in galleries, museums, and art centers. Exhibits have a significant impact on the development of socio-political, historical, cultural, educational, and other sectors. The creation of a museum exhibition should be based on a preliminary design. The designer should take into account all technical, scientific, and artistic aspects of the task and offer a successful solution for the presentation of exhibits. Depending on the thematic focus of the exhibition, other specialists should be involved in each stage of design: curators, art historians, and management.

Listening to the structure: Mass-timber construction at the Groton Hill Music Center

Historically, Western music spaces were built with massive masonry-bearing walls. While these designs offer structural and acoustical benefits, today’s construction culture is conscious of more fluid forms and embodied carbon, which influences how consultants think about the design of spaces for music. The recently completed Groton Hill Music Center is unique for its use of mass timber’s sculptural capabilities to shape performance space acoustic volumes forthrightly, with little additional finish treatment. The center features studio classrooms for students of all ages, an orchestral rehearsal space, a 300-seat recital hall for soloists and small ensembles, and a grand 1000-seat concert hall that opens to view for a 500-seat lawn audience. Structure and architecture are largely unified, with one’s acoustic experience defined by the sculpted mass timber structure. The comparatively light-weight timber/concrete composite structure represents a significant and somewhat acoustically risky reduction in mass to provide an acoustically warm environment. This presentation will explore how the structure was optimized to provide stiffness and multi-scale diffusion, taking the ideals of classic concert hall design, and embracing contemporary construction technologies and acoustical analyses.

Generative design of terraced concert hall – a case study of Taipei music and library centre

ABSTRACT The terraced concert hall offers a wide range of design options. Yet the knowledge barrier within a design team makes it difficult to effectively deliver a design that satisfies both the needs of creativity and acoustics. The study aims to explore the integration of generative parametric design collaboration workflow into the design of terraced concert halls and apply the cumulative results of the pilot study to the Taipei Music and Library Centre design competition. We propose an enhanced collaborating model between architects and acoustic consultants, integrating geometric design with acoustic verification in concert hall design. This cooperating model embraces and integrates three key steps: defining basic parameters and reference geometries, efficiently generating and composing geometric elements, and conducting geometric and acoustic statistical assessments. This design strategy enables integration of diverse viewpoints, covering both the acoustics within the hall and the space integration with the surroundings. The outcome is a terraced concert hall with an acoustic performance comparable to traditional shoebox-shaped halls.

Magnetic Poles Position Detection of Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Motor Using Four Linear Hall Effect Sensors

Magnetic pole position detection is the core of the closed-loop control system of the permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM), and its position estimation accuracy directly affects control performance and dynamic response speed. In order to solve the problem of the increased estimation error of magnetic pole position caused by magnetic field distortion at the end of PMLSM while also considering the cost of control hardware, the paper uses four linear Hall sensors as magnetic pole position detection components and adopts an optimized estimation algorithm to improve the dynamic performance of the motor. Firstly, a numerical simulation of the magnetic field of poles was conducted using Ansoft Maxwell software, and combined with theoretical analysis, the optimal installation position range of four linear Hall orthogonal placements relative to the motor was obtained. Meanwhile, based on the existing vector tracking position observer, an improved observer detection model is proposed. The Matlab/Simulink software was used to compare the Hall-based detection model with the Hall-based improved observer detection model, verifying the feasibility of the improved detection algorithm. Finally, the rationality of the spatial layout design of linear Hall and the feasibility of improving the estimation algorithm were verified through experiments.

The Floor Plan Design Method of Exhibition Halls in CGAN-Assisted Museum Architecture

The floor plan designs of traditional museum exhibition halls are generally developed according to the position and streamlined accessibility of the exhibits. However, there are often many floors in the same building, and multi-story exhibition halls are similar, so architects often spend a large amount of time and energy designing floors individually. Thus, this paper proposes a conditional generative adversarial network (CGAN)-based method for designing the floor plans of museum exhibition halls, which can help architects to work more efficiently. In this study, the basic concepts and structures of CGAN are first introduced; then, the design and training process of the CGAN model used are described in detail, and the datasets and evaluation metrics adopted are briefly described. In the Results and Discussion sections, this paper presents an example of the generated floor plan design of a museum exhibition hall and evaluates and analyzes the floor plan design of a museum exhibition hall generated using the proposed method. Finally, this paper summarizes the advantages of the proposed method, but also notes its shortcomings. If the number of data sets is not sufficient, the scope of the application will be relatively small. For example, museums converted from certain historical buildings are not applicable. The research results show the following: (1) the method proposed in this paper takes advantage of the CGAN model and can generate a museum exhibition hall floor plan design with certain regularity according to the given conditions, rather than pure random generation. (2) This method can automatically generate a variety of plan designs for museum exhibition halls in different schemes, providing designers with more choices and flexibility. (3) This method can carry out design optimization through human–computer interaction, and iterative improvement can be carried out according to user needs and feedback, which improves the practicability of the design.

Energy spectral element method for longitudinal acoustic propagation in ducts

Sound field behavior in an acoustic enclosure is an important part of the design of transportation vehicle passenger cabin, concert halls, conference rooms, and etc. Different analysis methods are available and have strengths and weaknesses. Low frequency band envelopes and negligible absorption in the walls can be modeled by Modal Analysis or Finite Element Method. However, as the frequency band increases, both methods become computationally intensive and Statistical Energy Analysis or the Sabine model can be an efficient approach. However, these methods do not take into account any spatial variation within the enclosure. The Energy Flow Analysis (EFA) solution for acoustic enclosures can be done analytically. In this paper, the Energy Spectral Element Method (ESEM) is formulated and applied to predict the spatial distribution of energy flux and density of acoustic ducts at high frequencies. ESEM is a matrix methodology based on EFA to solve acoustic and structural vibration problems. In this work, numerical models involving simple and coupled one-dimensional acoustic ducts are generated by ESEM, and the results are compared with energy densities calculated from the pressure fields predicted by the Spectral Element Method (SEM).

Singing in different performance spaces: Associations between room acoustic and singers perception

While the acoustic design of concert halls and other performance venues has evolved over time, the fact remains that the acoustic environments are generally designed for the benefit of the listening audiences rather than that of the performers. However, singers adapt their voice to room acoustics. This paper expands upon our current understanding of how a room’s acoustic environment influences a singer’s performance from the perceptions, observations, and lived experiences of performers. The subjects were nine classically-trained singers. Subjects sang the same aria in five different performance venues. After the performance, the singers filled out a questionnaire. Questions were subdivided into five major sections that were designed to capture their perceptions of (1) overall impressions; (2) background noise levels; (3) voice support; (4) Voice clarity. It was observed the overall impression of the room was mostly correlated with STv and IACClate. The perception of reverberation and the noisiness were correlated with C80 and EDT. The perceived voice support and clarity were mostly correlated with STv. This finding indicates the importance of auditory feedback in singers’ performance and the need for an acoustical design that takes into account the performers perception.
