Contextual Relations between Modern Architecture and Science, Art and Technology in Social Changes

Modern architecture has been not only influenced by political, economic, cultural and social factors in its development history, but also related to the development of science, art and technology. By taking the time sequence of modern architecture development in social changes as the longitudinal axis, and the influence of the three technological revolutions, science and technology (physics, chemistry, biology), art development on modern architecture as the horizontal axis, this study through the overlay analysis elaborated the correlation between modern architecture and the development of science, art and technology in social changes, and summarized five characteristics and laws of modern architecture. It provided a theoretic reference for knowing the history of architecture, and creating the future architecture, and also for the future development of local and national architecture.

Construction Method of Modern Architecture under the Background of the Times

Taking the development of the times as the background,the historical evolution of modern architecture is combed from the perspective of the initial stage of industrialization to post-industrialization and then to the information age.It can be seen that there is a close connection between development and modern architecture in the context of the times.With the advancement of science and technology,the construction of buildings has undergone varying degrees of changes due to aesthetics,materials,structure,humanities,and technology.Behind these changes are the results of the progress and development of social productivity.While changing people’s social cognition,it also changes the development process of architecture.

Dilemma in the Development of Modern Timber Architecture and Its Countermeasures

Under the context that“peak carbon emissions”and“carbon neutrality”are included in the overall plan for the construction of ecological civilization in China,this paper discusses the value of modern timber architecture as a form of low-carbon and environmental protection movement in the whole life cycle of the construction field.It mainly analyzes the reasons for the limited resources,misunderstandings of inherent concepts,the high cost of comprehensive construction,and the shortage of professionals.Based on that,several countermeasures have been proposed,such as perfecting relevant norms and policies,strengthening technology research and development as well as demonstration guidance,moderately developing forest resources,applying digital construction operation and maintenance technology,as well as cultivating compound professionals,all of which provide a reference for the development of ecological benefits in China’s construction industry.

Enlightenments of “White Space” in Traditional Chinese Painting on Landscape Architecture Design

By analyzing different expressions of "white space" in classical and modern Chinese gardens, the authors proposed that "white space" theory has infiltrated in graphic and spatial designs and has been widely applied in spatial layouts of gardens. On the basis of elaborating conceptual origin, characteristics and its connotations in the creation of artistic ambience, "white space" was believed valuable and enlightening for the artistic creation of modern landscape architecture.

Architectural Model of a Dryland Gravel Braided River,based on 3D UAV Oblique Photogrammetric Data:A Case Study of West Dalongkou River in Eastern Xinjiang,China

Three-dimensional unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)oblique photogrammetric data were used to infer mountainous gravel braided river lithofacies,lithofacies associations and architectural elements.Hierarchical architecture and lithofacies associations with detailed lithofacies characterizations were comprehensively described to document the architectural model,architectural element scale and gravel particle scale.(1)Nine lithofacies(i.e.,Gmm,Gcm,Gcc,Gci,Gcl,Ss,Sm,Fsm and Fl)were identified and classified as gravel,sand and fine matrix deposits.These are typical depositional features of a mountainous dryland gravel-braided river.(2)Three architectural elements were identified,including channel(CH),gravel bar(GB)and overbank(OB).CH can be further divided into flow channel and abandoned channel,while GB consists of Central Gravel bar(CGB)and Margin Gravel bar(MGB).(3)The gravel bar is the key architectural element of the gravel braided river,with its geological attributes.The dimensions of GBs and their particles are various,but exhibit good relationships with each other.The grain size of GB decreases downstream,but the dimensions of GB do not.The bank erosion affects the GB dimensions,whereas channel incision and water flow velocity influence the grain size of GB.The conclusions can be applied to the dryland gravel braided river studies in tectonically active areas.

大跨度木结构蒙古包的设计与工程实践

在我国“双碳”目标的实现和新时代中国民族建筑复兴的背景下,木结构建筑市场再次兴起。在原民族建筑文化内涵的基础上对结构进行创新,以满足现代市场的需求已成为新的研究方向。本文针对希拉穆仁草原景区设计了一座大跨度蒙古包,在不改变建筑材料的基础上,采用木网壳结构体系对传统建筑结构进行创新与优化,其最大跨度为23.5 m,最大高度为11.5 m,且整体结构稳定。在此基础上,利用有限元软件进行建模,对可能出现的各种工况进行静力计算和屈曲分析,验证了该结构的可靠性。本研究对我国大跨度木结构的发展和传统木结构建筑的创新具有重要的借鉴意义。

国际化与国族化:20世纪早期西方国族建筑中的现代主义

20世纪,强调“国际化”的现代主义建筑与强调“国族化”的国族主义产生深刻交集,在现代民族国家国族身份认同的塑造中扮演了重要作用。本文阐释了这分别带有排他性和包容性、看似矛盾的两者形成交集之成因,丰富了建筑作为一种政治文化这一议题的讨论:一方面,现代主义建筑所代表的时代精神与部分新生民族国家的意识形态达成一致,参与到后者对其国族身份认同的塑造中;另一方面,随着现代主义建筑的逐渐国际化,这一国际式风格成为主流话语的一种体现,使西方世界中的“边缘”国家效仿跟进,成为其国族建筑风格的选择。
