BRIDGEOLOGY //
Simulation driven design my refer to the certain process of
design in which design is developed through physical or mathematical simulation
of the phenomenon based on design variables.
In this project as a practice of “design as simulation” I tried to develop a design for the structural frame work and the surface form of a pedestrian bridge.
The process of form generation of the frame work is controlled based on different parameters of the bridge. The generated forms are analyzed under self-weight of the structure to determine the deflection. The goal of the simulation is controlling the form based on the maximum deflection.

#1 Overall Span
#2 Span of the two big ellipses
#3 Width of the ellipses
#4 Heights of the ellipses
#5 Inclination of the ellipses
Lets take a look at different forms generated by messing with different design variables//
