2026/04/22

Topology optimization has long been constrained by the computational cost of working at meaningful scale. For architectural and civil engineering applications — where domains span tens of meters and element counts run into the millions — that constraint has made high-fidelity structural synthesis largely impractical on standard hardware.In this episode recorded at CDFAM Barcelona 2026, Raul C. Llamas-Sandin presents a GPU-accelerated solver that addresses this directly, reducing solve times for

2026/04/20

Most 3D generative AI has been built to produce things that look right. Hao (Richard) Zhang argues that for the built environment, that is the wrong objective. Buildings must function — and that means AI systems need to reason about spatial relationships, load paths, equipment routing, and regulatory constraints, not just geometry.In this episode recorded at CDFAM Barcelona 2026, Richard introduces Functional AI as a framework for 3D design automation and walks through Augmenta’s work applying it to
