Smart Materials in Architecture, Interior Architecture and Design

Производитель: "Неизвестный"

The use of smart materials in architecture is a dynamic and innovative area merging research, development, and use. Smart materials, with their reversible characteristics, respond to stimuli such as light, temperature, and electrical field by changing their form, color, viscosity, etc. One of the most fascinating developments is the advent of Phase Change Materials. These materials make it possible, for example, to develop self-acting, kinetic facades and wallpaper that changes its color and pattern based on temperature and light. The book presents the development of these materials and also describes their use in the contexts of architecture, design, and art. It offers a systematic overview with a detailed discussion of properties, technologies, products, and projects based on twenty groups of smart materials. ISBN:978-3-7643-7327-6

Ritter

Ritter is the second-lowest-ranking title of nobility in German-speaking areas, just above an Edler, considered roughly equal to the title Knight or Baronet. It is a hereditary title. The German knightly families, typically indicated by the designation "von" before their names, often acquired baronial rank. This would be indicated heraldically by the use of a coronet with either seven (Baron) or five points (knight) (as opposed to counts, who have nine points on the coronet, or a strawberry leaf crown). German (Holy Roman Empire) nobility of that rank is called 'Ritter von [...] ' Sypniewski Ritter von Odrowaz. Where an allodial title is held they would also be designated Freiherr or Junker.
