On Vaulting: Heron’s Manuals and Their Role in Roman Dome Design Nexus Netw. J. (IF 0.5) Pub Date : 2024-04-02 Alicia Roca, Francisco Juan-Vidal, Luca Cipriani, Filippo Fantini
The subject of domes in the Roman world is complex and can be studied from different perspectives. In this paper we focus on the relationship between Heron of Alexandria's manuals and the vaulting systems of the Hadrianic age. Our aim is to compare a selection of formulae from the critical edition by Johan Ludvig Heiberg with a series of buildings recently documented using photogrammetric and laser

Land- and Skyscapes of Hegra: An Archaeoastronomical Analysis of the Nabataean Necropoleis Nexus Netw. J. (IF 0.5) Pub Date : 2024-04-02 Juan Antonio Belmonte, A. César González-García, Munirah A. AlMushawh, Maitane Urrutia-Aparicio, Andrea Rodríguez-Antón
The archaeological World Heritage Site of Hegra (Mada´in Salih, Al-Hijr), in Saudi Arabia, is often considered the southern capital of the Nabataean Kingdom. Positioned just northeast of the AlUla Valley (where ancient Dadan is located), the Nabataeans recreated several aspects of their northern capital, Petra. They carved more than 130 tombs into the sandstone outcrops of which nearly a hundred had

The Grammar of Anne Tyng’s Simpler Space Structures Nexus Netw. J. (IF 0.5) Pub Date : 2024-04-02 Heather Ligler
Anne Tyng’s notion of metamorphology is introduced in relation to three of the architect’s residential space structures. The interpretation of this body of work is viewed through the lens of the octetruss to examine the evolution of Tyng’s design approach where the interplay between Platonic geometries and their transformations demonstrates exponential formal and functional opportunity. This analysis

Agent-Based Principal Strips Modeling for Freeform Surfaces in Architecture Nexus Netw. J. (IF 0.5) Pub Date : 2024-02-26
Abstract The principal curvature (PC) of a freeform surface, as an important indicator of its fundamental features, is frequently used to guide their rationalization in the field of architectural geometry. The division of a surface using its PC lines into principal strips (PSs) is an innovative way to break down a freeform surface for construction. However, the application of PC networks in architectural
