The ecological planning method of land use in the urban overall planning is discussed here. Based on the brief analysis of the common thoughts on ecology in today’s front planning ideas, this paper analyzes the ecological effects of clear space frame and scientific function mixture in the land use planning as well as the urban environmental contradictions which can be solved by the ecological planning method. In addition, a planning method of ecological land-use which is deep, detailed and practical in overall planning will be discussed.

Biology contains many examples of deployable structures. They can be grouped as planar, cylindrical, stiff and compliant, and space frame combining both stiff and compliant elements (ten-segrity structures). Deployment occurs due to high strain elastic materials, or folds and curves that can be actuated by springs, changes in shape (mediated by hydraulic or contractile mechanisms) or changes in stiffness. Evolution filters out inefficiency. Transfer of nature's technology requires understanding of the optimizations in the biological system. The concepts can then be used in aerospace, deployable camouflage, packaging, emergency shelters, capture systems, etc.

This paper presents a three-dimensional (3D) extension of our previous work on the synthesis of assemblies whose dimensional integrity is insensitive to the dimensional variations of individual parts. Assuming that assemblies can be built in the reverse sequence of decomposition, the method recursively decomposes a given product geometry into two subassemblies until parts become manufacturable. At each recursion, joints are assigned to the interfaces between two subassemblies to ensure the two criteria for robust dimensional integrity, in-process dimensional adjustability, and proper part constraints. Screw theory is utilized as a unified 3D representation of the two criteria. A case study on an automotive space frame is presented to demonstrate the method.
