“…After analysing the research results and the current development trend of small apartment buildings, put forward the characteristics of demand. Product design mainly considers how to use the multi-purpose concept to enhance the coupling of design variable controlled by stakeholders of different subjects, perfectly converts functional mode with different attributes to improve ironing effect (Panchal et al, 2005;Kleinsmann et al, 2017;Dong, 2017). By optimising the combination of axial-flow fans and PTC heating boards, the structure of ironing products is cleverly inserted into household products to achieve self-suction, drying and other functions.…”

“…Actually, space utilisation is improved through the tight coupling of design variants controlled by the stakeholders of different disciplines (Panchal et al, 2005). Though integrating a new assembly and the sub-system structure into the existing product is challenging (Dong, 2017), excellent designers in the new age can use innovative design thinking to give the best performance of the application value of design.…”

In the view of the development trend of small-sized house type and space conflicts with excessive volume of professional ironing equipment, this study intends to develop the multi-function expansion of household ironing table and feasibility of spatial intensification based on the intensive concept. Combining with the kansei evaluation, this study discusses on how to transform household model to deeper vertical compound. In terms of technical means, it cleverly integrates the axial fan, PTC heating plate and other ironing products into household products, in order to realise the self-suction, drying, setting and other functions. In terms of design methods, it generates the prototype of multi-purpose household ironing board through a two-step experiment. Comparing the prototype with other household ironing tools, it not only realises the preliminary conception of function expansion and spatial intensification but also improve the composite utilisation value of raw materials and accessories. Overall, it has provided practical reference for green innovation concept.

“…A consequence of the link between parametric applications and simulation programs is that of further increasing the already huge importance of models in the architectural domain, along a path which in modernity has at first addressed structural problems (Dong, 2017;Nervi, 1954;Cowan et al 1968), then environmental analyses, ranging from winds (Davenport, 1960) to solar radiation (Olgyay & Olgyay, 1957) and daylighting (Lam, 1986). In all these situations, the models surrogate something.…”

Increasing the efficiency of simulation-based design explorations via metamodelling

Building performance simulation can support parametric explorations of design option spaces.Resources available for modelling and computing often require the reduction of the descriptive information of a design solution at the level of design-space model rather than at that of building model. To obtain that reduction, two design-space models of different scope (for example, one full-scope and simplified, the other partial-scope and detailed) can be combined to make their responses usable as surrogates of those produced by a full-scope detailed inquiry. But aligning two building models of different scope can be difficult and sometimes impossible. This article presents a design-space "grafting" technique supported by metamodelling that makes it possible to hybridize two non-aligned design-space models so as to obtain a diffusely calibrated conjoint response. The strategy can be integrated into metamodelling and decomposition-based optimization to decrease the information costs entailed by parametric explorations.
