Inverse Design Methods for the Built Environment

This book, from one of the pioneers of inverse design applications in the built environment, introduces the basic principles of inverse design and the specific techniques which can be applied to built environment systems. Chen's inverse design concept uses the desired enclosed environment as the design objective and inversely determines the syst
