Abstract

Wood actively equalises its moisture content in relation to its surrounding environment. Technical applications that can harness this characteristic can have a great impact in the improvement of indoor hygrometric comfort. So far few applications have made use of this unique property. The natural hygroscopic intelligence of wood can lead to the development of a new technology capable of ensuring improved indoor comfort. The natural material can thus be engineered by creating responsive composites made from wood waste and transformed through 4D printing. The biomimetic actuators studied in this paper are aimed at linking the transformation of form into environmental control functionality applied to building comfort in adaptive and passive solutions.

利用木材的自然智能来改善建筑物的被动通风

木材主动平衡其水分含量与周围环境的关系。利用这一特性的技术应用可以对改善室内湿度舒适性产生很大影响。到目前为止，很少有应用程序利用这种独特的特性。木材的天然吸湿智能可以导致一种新技术的发展，能够确保改善室内舒适度。因此，可以通过创建由木材废料制成的反应性复合材料并通过4D打印进行改造来设计天然材料。本文研究的仿生致动器旨在将形式的转变与环境控制功能联系起来，应用于自适应和被动解决方案的建筑舒适性。

期刊介绍： TECHNE, Journal of Technology for Architecture and Environment is the scientific magazine of SITdA, the Italian Society of Architectural Technology. Techne aims: to publicize significant contributions in the technological and environmental planning action area, to provide a tool for international comparison on research themes in that area, to promote the recognition of scientific contributions in accordance with its criteria on the evaluation of research in an academic context and to promote the circulation of contributions concerning research and experimentation, the results and effects of which are interesting in terms of social, economic, environmental and cultural impact. The magazine endorses an editorial policy primarily geared towards the diffusion of knowledge, favouring access to it and ensuring reliable and original contributions as well as recognition to the authors, whose protection is a top priority but not limiting. Techne publishes two issues a year; it includes articles, essays, columns, interviews and reviews by authors who work in the academic world, in research, design, industry, and entrepreneurial and client organizations.
