Acoustic Treatment of Space by Implementing Parametric Panels
The development of software tools has enabled more detailed analysis of the acoustic properties of a space. Therefore, this research explores the possibility of improving the acoustic and aesthetic qualities of a space through the implementation of parametric wall panels. The research was conducted in two phases. As part of the first phase, the abs...

GROUNDWATER LEVEL ESTIMATION USING GMS SOFTWARE
The primary goal of this paper is to develop a mathematical model that describes groundwater flow within a porous medium. By employing mathematical modelling techniques for fluid flow analysis, valuable insights can be gained into complex flow conditions that are often difficult to assess using conventional analytical methods. Given that the spatia...
