Today, we have to follow the principle of sustainable development in relation to the surrounding environment. Bearing in mind the mandatory requirements for energy efficient buildings, special attention should be paid to the strategy of conduct. In this respect, the key factor is the ability to visualize not only the building but also individual elements, including: cross-sections of walls, ceilings, roofs, presentation of potential materials before the necessary work is carried out. Such a state project is possib...

The aim of the research and analyses was to present the design process of industrial facilities, that takes into account their impact on the existing environment in order to limit the impact of the designed facility on the landscape. Industrial architecture work is usually carried out without taking the surrounding landscape into consideration. The proper analyses of the land for investment and its surroundings allows to develop a design strategy. Appropriate arrangement of isolating greenery allows to create natu...

The problem of visualization of fires is relevant to the design of emergency situation simulators for industrial facilities involving a risk of fire or explosion. The effectiveness of a simulator depends on the accuracy of animation (visualization) used in this simulator. The present paper aims to build a mathematical model of fire spread at industrial facilities with regard to the associated processes of smoke generation, release of toxic combustion products and their influence on physical condition of an individ...
