Kinetica在迪拜世博会上大获全胜

Kinetica’s Triumph at Expo Dubai

在建筑创新领域,墨西哥公司Kinetica为2020年迪拜世博会项目做出了开创性贡献,留下了不可磨灭的印记。受委托为直径 140 米的视频映射穹顶(世博会的核心)建造42个AV和声音吊舱,团队面临着多方面的挑战,需要无与伦比的创造力、精度和适应性。

In the realm of architectural innovation, Kinetica, a Mexican firm, has left an indelible mark with its groundbreaking contributions to the Expo Dubai 2020 project. Commissioned to build 42 AV and sound pods to a 140-meter-diameter video mapping dome – the centerpiece of the Expo – Kinetica’s team faced a multifaceted challenge that demanded unparalleled creativity, precision, and adaptability.

构建POD

BUILDING THE PODS

为了完成这项艰巨的任务,Kinetica 的团队制作了 42 个定制的铝制吊舱,这些吊舱类似于飞机涡轮机,其中包含复杂的技术,包括高科技激光投影仪、MEP 和 10 吨重的空调。

For this colossal undertaking, Kinetica’s team crafted 42 bespoke aluminum pods resembling airplane turbines that housed intricate technology, including high-tech laser projectors, MEP, and 10 tons of air conditioning.

每个吊舱的铝制结构都具有双曲率,展示了该公司在液压成型工艺方面的精湛技艺,利用定制=制造的机器用高压液体塑造金属。在一次独家采访中,Kinetica计算设计部门负责人Leonardo Arenas强调了公司独特的方法。Kinetica通过将工业设计创造力与实际制造能力相结合,与由建筑师、工程师和工业设计师组成的多学科团队一起处理项目而脱颖而出。

Each pod’s aluminum structure, with a double curvature, showcased the firm’s mastery in the hydro-forming process, utilizing a custom=made machine to shape metal with high-pressure liquid.In an exclusive interview, Leonardo Arenas, head of Kinetica’s Computational Design department, emphasized the company’s distinctive approach. Kinetica stands out by merging industrial design creativity with practical fabrication prowess, tackling projects with a multidisciplinary team comprising architects, engineers, and industrial designers.

创新合作与国际融合

INNOVATIVE COLLABORATION & INTERNATIONAL INTEGRATION

为了突出国际合作,世界上最大的 360 度投影幕布是合作成果,涉及东欧的材料、美国的织物以及墨西哥蒙特雷的吊舱制造。这种由 AS GG(Adrian Smith Gordon Gill Architecture)领导的混合体展示了 Kinetica 无缝集成来自不同位置的组件的能力。

Highlighting the international collaboration, the 360-degree projection screen, the world’s largest, was a collaborative effort involving materials from East Europe, fabric from the US, and the fabrication of pods in Monterey, Mexico. This mixture, led by AS+GG (Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture), showcases Kinetica’s ability to integrate components from diverse locations seamlessly.

全球合作需要有效的沟通,这是Kinetica精神中根深蒂固的理念。该公司使用 3D 模型作为通用语言,确保整个项目生命周期的清晰度和精确性。Kinetica的适应性在克服挑战方面表现出色,例如通过世界上最大的货机安东诺夫AN124高效运输吊舱,以及在与海拔相关的压力变化中确保玻璃系统的完整性。看看Kinetica 的创新液压成型工艺,并见证高压液体成型铝进入迪拜世博会标志性吊舱令人惊叹的双曲率。

Collaborating globally demands effective communication, a philosophy engrained in Kinetica’s ethos. The company uses 3D models as a universal language, ensuring clarity and precision throughout the project’s lifecycle. Kinetica’s adaptability shines through in overcoming challenges, such as efficiently transporting pods via the world’s largest cargo plane, the Antonov AN 124, and ensuring the integrity of the glassing system amid altitude-related pressure changes.Take a look at Kinetica’s innovative hydro-forming process and witness high-pressure liquid-shaping aluminum into the stunning double curvature for Expo Dubai’s iconic pods.

参数化设计,成功的关键因素

PARAMETRIC DESIGN, A KEY PLAYER IN SUCCESS

Kinetica对参数化设计的利用,特别是Rhino和Grasshopper,发挥了关键作用。这些工具使团队能够简化复杂的流程,从优化Pod方向到模拟液压成形过程。Grasshopper的Galapagos插件的集成促进了门移动系统的高效设计。

Kinetica’s utilization of parametric design, specifically Rhino and Grasshopper, played a pivotal role. These tools enabled the team to streamline complex processes, from optimizing pod orientation to simulating the hydroforming process. The integration of Grasshopper’s Galapagos plugin facilitated the efficient design of the doors’ movement systems.
