O uso de sistemas generativos como instrumento de desenho urbano sustentável

This paper proposes two Generative Algorithms for aid the Urban Design activity. In order to produce these algorithms we were identified urban characteristics able to ensure the performance of the produced solutions. The first developed algorithm has the capacity to produce urban blocks and the second one was produced to generate neighborhoods. To set these algorithms were identified urban parameters that were structured in the proposed algorithms. The urban parameters defined in this thesis are extracted from the Compact City and New Urbanism. These urban models have as principles the resumption of the qualities of the traditional city and the denial of Modernist Urbanism. The use of Generative Algorithms such as a tool to support the Urban Design process was proposed as a way of integrating computational design methods in the city design. The Urban Design processes have not made use of digital design as the architecture has made. Even the parametric urbanism and the City Information Modeling (CIM) are still in the process of consolidation. There are a few examples of urban projects that effectively make use of computational tools. The algorithms presented in this paper serve as the basis for the production of parametric digital models or to the development of a specific software to Urban Design process. This proposal results from the fact that within the generative parametric most difficult professional project is to establish the parameters to be used by the generative system for the production of solutions.
