Overview Teaching / Research Work
A glimpse of four design exploration projects conducted by Khodadadi through a combination of a genetic algorithm and TRIZ.

Her research interests lie in three primary areas, an interdisciplinary scope that contributes contributes to both the fields of computer-aided design but also building science:

  • Computation and design science, including form exploration methods, parametric modeling, application of a genetic algorithm in multi-objective design, creative design thinking, and innovative problem-solving
  • Building science, including thermal and daylighting simulation, integrated design, structural and environmental analyses of the buildings, life cycle assessment
  • Science education in architectural pedagogy, including inclusive teaching and active learning approaches.
