Mathematical Generative Approach on Performance Based Urban Form Design
The research proposes a mathematical generative methodology to identify performance linking urban forms and density indicators. Selected performance criteria for this preliminary study are shadow factor (on the public ground) and Urban Heat Island effect. The results are interpreted based on the mathematical correlation between building form factors and environmental qualities, depending on the building density, to identify the most performing cases by means of parametric design. The study shows that, in the case of buildings with square foot print, UHI is highly dependent on height of urban canyon and optimum shade factor is achievable with intermediate canyon width.
