Sun, Y. Turrin, M. von Buelow, P. Paul, J.C. Faculty Architecture and The Built Environment Department Architectural Engineering +Technology Date 2015-08-17 Abstract Currently, in the conceptual envelope design of sports facilities, multiple engineering performance feedbacks (e.g. daylight, energy and structural performance) are expected to assist architectural design decision-making. In general, it is known as Building Performance Optimization in the conceptual architectural design phase. Essentially, it tends to be a Multi-objective and Multidisciplinary Design Optimization problem. Although the potential of Multi-objective Optimization and Multidisciplinary Design Optimization in handling this problem has been demonstrated in different industrial fields, there are still some significant gaps in their current application to the field of building design. The ultimate goal of our research is to find out an effective and efficient Computational Design Optimization approach, for architects, which is suitable for the conceptual design of sports building envelopes. As parts of the final goal, this paper aims to: (1) set up a meaningful benchmark case and method for the comparison of different Multidisciplinary Design Optimization approaches in future research; (2) propose an integrated Computational Design Optimization process to deal with the benchmark case using the benchmark method; and (3) test the overall process through a hypothetical and simplified case study (i.e. a sports hall with a spherical roof). Important aspects of each objective above are highlighted respectively, and thereby bridging the current gaps. Finally, discussion and future research are given.
