    Abstract : The building sector uses about 40% of the total global energy use. Sweden aims to reach its new goal to reduce the energy use in their residential sector as well as commercial sector by 20%, which should be reached by year 2020 and 50% by year 2050. READ MORE

  2. 2. Procedural generation and weathering of building facades : Replicating shape and distribution of wear-and-tear on real-world building facades

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Love Wessman; [2023]
    Keywords : procedural modeling; building facades; wear and tear; procedurell modellering; byggnadsfasader; slitage;

    Abstract : Manual modeling of building facades can be a cumbersome process. Instead, procedurally modeling building facades is a practical and quick way to achieve impressive visual results. This paper presents a method for prototyping 2D facades existing in a 3d environment, with the inclusion of shading-based procedural wear-and-tear. READ MORE
