Abstract:

Broadly speaking, buildings are affected by many influential forces such as time, climate, performance, and human needs that are not static but dynamic and unstable. As a result, in the present age and ofcource future, it is essential to develop buildings that adapt to climate, energy and other factors of designing an architectural project. Kinetic architecture is a specific type of high-tech architecture that enables buildings to fit the project requirements, users’ needs, environmental conditions (built environment and climate), and the time requirements, and create a variety of movements (both real, spatial, and virtual) in different system components such as shells and facades, interiors, structural components, and even the entire building.  A review of the existing literature, both academic and professional, shows recent trends in research on kinetic architecture and its countless potentials in the field of architectural design. This architecture faces challenges due to interdisciplinary issues and the multiplicity of technologies involved, and of course advances in robotics, mechanics, electronics, and structures responsive to kinetic design are essential to this new approach. On the other hand, the lack of transparency about the definitions and concepts related to kinetic architecture has challenged the understanding and correct choice of such systems. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to provide common definitions for interdisciplinary concepts and provide a common theoretical and conceptual framework for designing kinetic architecture and classifying its types in accordance with the design goal, which can help to choose the appropriate kinetic system in each project. A thorough understanding of kinetic systems that are relevant to architecture and their usage is important, because it enables architects to think about the major aspects of kinetics and explore their potential for architectural applications. In this context, the research presents a methodology for the definition and classification of different terms, concepts, and approaches in kinetic architecture. This research method is descriptive-analytical and utilizes documentary and library studies reviews the definitions and concepts related to movement in architecture and examines the types of classifications presented by researchers and their approaches as well as the stages and strategies of kinetic design. These studies showed that by considering such things as the type of mechanism and location of movement, amount of movement, system structure, control techniques, and how to operate the building, various classifications for kinetic architecture can be provided, each of which is not responsible for offering the most practical classification. A comprehensive look at all of these will be helpful. This study also showed that in recent years there is an increasing tendency to research about and use kinetic systems to reduce energy consumption and utilizing it in the facade of the building. What is neglected in the field of kinetic architecture studies is research on the use of kinetic systems in the construction of Indoor spaces, structures and the use of movement potentials of indoor spaces in order to provide security and meet the other needs of users except for Thermal comfort, the flexibility of the space, providing a suitable and diverse view and perspective.
