Architects and Engineers Differences: A comparison between problem solving performances of architects and engineers in the ideation phase of an analogy-based design
Authors
Abstract:
This study examines how analogy affects problem-solving in ideation phase of design among architects and engineers. For this purpose, a design problem was given to master and Ph.D. students of engineering and architecture. They were given two optional analogy sources to choose and be inspired by one. From the analysis of design sessions, using different coding groups and the application of the Protocol analysis, the following results were achieved. Choosing different analogies would cause application of different levels of abstraction by designers in design, considering their discipline. Also, choosing between two analogies would affect mainly the behaviour of engineers in the problem space. For architects choosing between different analogies do not affect their problem solving or structuring so much but it affects their problem space monitoring mainly. Finally, architects benefit from analogy mostly for problem solving.

Navigation Systems, Architects and Engineers
Interactive multimedia (IMM) navigation systems rely on two key non-graphical components, a schematic or architectural framework and an associated programming solution. Two primary framework types are recognized – branching (structured) and referential (unstructured) – although most navigation systems include elements of both. Programmed solutions to navigational frameworks typically display va...

B-spline curves and surfaces and their suitability for ship hull surface definition are discussed. A comparison with other curve and surface definition methods, e.g., cubic splines, Bézier curves, parabolic blending is given. Their use both for ab initio curve and surface generation and for fitting existing offset data is discussed. Comparisons of the data storage requirements are made. The uti...

در این پایان نامه به بررسی روش های آشکارسازی در سیستم های mc-cdma می پردازیم. با توجه به ماهیت آشکارسازی در این سیستم ها، تکنیک های آشکارسازی را می توان به دو دسته ی اصلی تقسیم نمود: آشکارسازی سیگنال ارسالی یک کاربر مطلوب بدون در نظر گرفتن اطلاعاتی در مورد سایر کاربران تداخل کننده که از آن ها به عنوان آشکارساز های تک کاربره یاد می شود و همچنین آشکارسازی سیگنال ارسالی همه ی کاربران فعال موجود در...
