Transformable Architecture
KONSTANTINOS-ALKETAS OUNGRINIS - undergraduate -
(A+)
School of Architectural Engineering, Technical University of Crete
The course has as its main theme applied movement in architecture and in particular the variable (transformable) architecture, with some reports and more, and sometimes interactive, class transferred architecture (portable). It will approach the issue of time and movement in the synthetic process of production sites and forms through the analog or digital operation, and within the context of the evolution of these models in the construction and operation of motor models.

Illustration of Imaginary
KONSTANTINOS-ALKETAS OUNGRINIS - undergraduate -
(A-)
School of Architectural Engineering, Technical University of Crete
To lesson Specialization (SP) for the development of specific skills (SC). The course aims to cultivate the ability of students to express ideas and representational images created in their minds. The ability of an architect to be able to reflect with utmost fidelity thoughts and to "bring" in reality, to visualize the fruit of his imagination is one of the most essential skills that can be acquired.
The course is based on the theory of Radford, stressing the need for a hybrid experiential effort in acquiring experiences by trainees architects through role game theory. This process will "bring" students before situations in which you have to experience the imaginary and then to portray. Through this process, students come into contact with all items and scales of the built environment, called to portray a fast but effective ways.

Introduction to Mechatronics
GEORGIOS STAVROULAKIS - undergraduate -
(A-)
School of Production Engineering and Management, Technical University of Crete
Mechatronics deals with the loop of the dynamic system (mechanical, electric or a combination of several fields), with the control and with the interfaces used for the measurement response (sensors) and the imposition of control (actuators).
And due to the fact that systems rarely meet the assumptions of our study, the mathematical model is complex (non - linear), has flaws etc. and usually use intelligent control systems (fuzzy logic, neural networks and hybrid techniques).
