“The last year has been very busy.” Something you all might hear or even say yourself a lot. Well, at least it clarifies why it has been quiet in this blog for so long :-).
In this post you will find lots of information about the stuff I’ve been working on for all Autodesk University conferences I presented on. On this link you can always find the most recent list of classes that have been recorded.
Some of the links that are posted in my handouts on the AU Online page are broken and can’t be repaired. To avoid these problems again in the future, I will use this post to share you all the datasets and presentations from the past conferences. As well as for the ones that still have to come.
From Design Automation to Generative Design
A lecture that was live streamed and where I take you on the journey from Design Automation to Generative Design in the AEC Industry

Using Generative Design in Construction Applications
This lecture was very special as due to unforeseen circumstances the originator couldn’t attend and present at AU. So Mostafa El Ayoubi a.k.a. DataShapes got 1 day of time to put some content together to present this 60 min class to 180 attendees. We managed to do in a few hours, probably a record in prep time for AU :-). This is the result:

Structural Dynam(o)ite
Optimized Design and Fabrication Workflows with Dynamo
In this lecture you could learn about several optimization techniques in computational design. In this presentation you also get an introduction to Project Refinery, our new tool for design optimization with Dynamo.

Skeletons in the Closet
Together with my colleague Jonathan Geffen I could present about how to involve computational design for the optimization of a rollercoaster design. We developed a workflow to link Dynamo with Inventor for frame design.

DynaShape Your Architectural Designs
This joint class with Long Nguyen showed an awesome combination of architectural design and computational optimization. It was a real honor to collaborate with the author of the DynaShape package for this project.

Dynam(o)ite Your Architectural Design
This class showed an end-to-end workflow for the fabrication of complex facade panels, started with the conceptual design, using computational design techniques.

Dynam(o)ite Your Steel Design
In this class you could learn about how to involve computational design and optimization techniques in your structural steel constructions. The example of the “famous” Mars Torus Arena was used.
