Renewable supply systems, such as rainwater harvesting and ground source heat pumps, have the potential to improve sustainability resilience of residential areas. However, their feasibility partly depends on dimensions plot areas dwellings, there has been a lack suitable method modelling these for future urban development. This paper therefore calibrates validates how footprints dwellings would...

A parametric manifold is a manifold on which all tensor fields depend on an additional parameter, such as time, together with a parametric structure, namely a given (parametric) 1-form field. Such a manifold admits natural generalizations of Lie differentiation, exterior differentiation, and covariant differentiation, all based on a nonstandard action of vector fields on functions. There is a n...

Mathematical concepts of multivariate parametric solids, their description by a B-spline basis functions are discussed. Parametric solids can model both the shape and unisotropic interior. Three types of parametric solids i.e. Coons body 0, 1 and 2 are used to demonstrate the interior modelling often used as initial or boundary conditions in numerical simulation. Multiple parametric solids elem...
