1. Sustainability-, Buildability- and Performance-driven Structural Design
Abstract : The construction, maintenance and operation of infrastructure networks represent substantial impacts, both positive and negative, in all three dimensions of sustainability: economic, social and environmental. The greatest possibility to reduce the negative impacts and increase the positive ones is at the early design stage of construction projects. READ MORE

3. Reuse of principle solution elements in conceptual design : an information model for concepts in systematic design
Abstract : Product development is an important activity in engineering design, and much of the competitiveness in high-salary countries depends on the ability to develop innovative products with acceptable time to market.The early phase of a systematic design process, namely conceptual design, during which the principle solution for a product is conceived, is of high importance for the later success of products.

4. Exploration and Optimization of Building Design Solutions using Computational Design
Abstract : The focus of building design is increasingly moving towards considering performance as a driver, which can especially be seen in the realm of sustainable or green building design due to the advent of ambitious goals regarding energy consumption and emissions. Accounting for these concerns is an important target of the building design process, where there is a potential to make valuable contributions. READ MORE

5. Architectural prototypes : modes of design development and architectural practice
Abstract : This licentiate thesis is design driven, partly based on case studies in the form of experimental design projects developed mainly within the research and design collective Krets. It constitutes the first half of a PhD project that studies new technologies and techniques within design processes and the production of architecture, especially in relation to collaborative models.
