Highlights

SUTD researchers have developed a generative urban model that upends the notion that walkable neighbourhoods must come at the expense of road access, offering a new way to balance mobility and liveability.

The prestigious list, as compiled by Stanford University, is based on the bibliometric information in the Scopus database and includes more than 220,000 researchers from across the globe, classified into 22 scientific fields and 174 subfields.

Chandelion: Chanel x AirLab SUTD for Circularity

A simple manufacturing technology based on chitin, one of the most ubiquitous organic polymers on Earth, could be used to build tools and shelters on Mars.

Researchers from SUTD have developed a process that allows for the production and degradation of almost any object within a circular economy using additive manufacturing and urban waste, the largest by-product of civilization.

With Asia’s rapid urbanisation, the traditional top-down approach to architectural design and urbanism is becoming irrelevant. Artificial Design offers a bottom-up solution that creates a better world for all to live in.

This research project proposes a novel approach that that incorporates simulated human crowd flow patterns into the design of middle-scale built environment layouts (e.g., shopping mall, campus, station terminal, theme park).

SmartGrid is a new technology that understands the preferences of its user, bringing about energy and cost savings in accordance with the user’s comfort level of choice.

In place of conventional computer-aided design methods, Digital Heritage and Tectonics is revolutionizing the field of architectural conservation.
