Nature
We can focus on nature from two different aspects: Art and tech.
Based on today’s view, nature is just separated from its deep
meaning; one is considered a completely materialistic and the
other as God- given. . In Art’s point of view from nature which is a
God – given one all world whether nature, it deep meaning or
invisible world and martyrdom world.
It is a reflection of God – given view. This aspect itself which once
was a defeated aspect in the world gave, gradually, its place to
another aspect in which nature was not only associated with
higher and higher creation, but also it was under man’s control.
In modern aye, human is being considered as the basis for
everything and nature itself was looked open as man’s toll. This is
an aspect in which the world is being supposed to be a factor of
defeat and optimization.
Architecture as an important design and the creator of our life
environment including housing spaces, working and office works,
entertainment sites, open spaces and also campuses should
identify Man’s needs and should pave the way to prevent and
answer to them. Man’s needs are all divided into several parts:
Needs associated with environmental situates to bring about
peace and tranquility such as temperature, ray and humidity.
Spiritual and psychological, peace and comfort, and beautician.
Social and economical needs. It’s been tried, in sustainable
architecture, to use natural facilities for users’ tranquility at a
maximum rate. This includes some aspects as follows:
To provide comfort condition using climatic factors at a maximum
rate.
Sustainable architecture will try to bring about man’s needs by
using non – recycled energy, strong facilities and recycled. It also
tries to pay attention to provide a security for man and based on
person’s identity in bringing psychological and mental safety. It,
as an important and sustainable architecture has a great heed to
psychological and spiritual needs as space users.
Materialistic facilities together with a waste of energy will spoil
the nature and awing to the fact that there no energy cut off,
there would be problems. Some conjecture that those provided
facilities by tech will case a problem like this while the purpose of
tech is to prepare pace and comfort. Such a drawback is not just
put away or by increasing facilities function and a renew
consideration on non – recycled energies, to some extent, with the
help of tech.
Vision
The human eye is an organ which reacts to light and pressure. As
a sense organ, the mammalian eye allows vision. Human eyes
help provide a three dimensional, moving image, normally
coloured in daylight. Rod and cone cells in the retina allow
conscious light perception and vision including colour
differentiation and the perception of depth. The human eye can
differentiate between about 10 million colours and is possibly
capable of detecting a single photon.
Similar to the eyes of other mammals, the human eye's non-image
forming photosensitive ganglion cells in the retina receive light
signals which affect adjustment of the size of the pupil, regulation
and suppression of the hormone melatonin and entrainment of
the body clock.
Light energy enters the eye through the cornea, through the pupil
and then through the lens. The lens shape is changed for near
focus (accommodation) and is controlled by the ciliary muscle.
Photons of light falling on the light-sensitive cells of the retina
(photoreceptor cones and rods) are converted into electrical
signals that are transmitted to the brain by the optic nerve and
interpreted as sight and vision.
HEARING
Hearing, or auditory perception, is the ability to perceive sound by
detecting vibrations, changes in the pressure of the surrounding
medium through time, through an organ such as the ear.
Sound may be heard through solid, liquid, or gaseous matter. It
is one of the traditional five senses; partial or total inability to
hear is called hearing loss. In humans and other vertebrates,
hearing is performed primarily by the auditory system:
mechanical waves, known as vibrations are detected by the ear
and transduced into nerve impulses that are perceived by the
brain (primarily in the temporal lobe). Like touch, audition
requires sensitivity to the movement of molecules in the world
outside the organism. Both hearing and touch are types of
mechanosensation.
SOUND
In physics, sound is a vibration that typically propagates as an
audible wave of pressure, through a transmission medium such as
a gas, liquid or solid. In human physiology and psychology, sound
is the reception of such waves and their perception by the brain.
Humans can hear sound waves with frequencies between about
20 Hz and 20 kHz. Sound above 20 kHz is ultrasound and below
20 Hz is infrasound. Other animals have different hearing ranges.
Sound is defined as
"(a) Oscillation in pressure, stress, particle displacement, particle
velocity, etc., propagated in a medium with internal forces (e.g.,
elastic or viscous), or the superposition of such propagated
oscillation.
(b) Auditory sensation evoked by the oscillation described in (a). "
Sound can be viewed as a wave motion in air or other elastic
media. In this case, sound is a stimulus. Sound can also be viewed
as an excitation of the hearing mechanism that results in the
perception of sound. In this case, sound is a sensation.
NOISE
Noise is unwanted sound judged to be unpleasant, loud or
disruptive to hearing. From a physics standpoint, noise is
indistinguishable from sound, as both are vibrations through a
medium, such as air or water. The difference arises when the
brain receives and perceives a sound. In experimental sciences,
noise can refer to any random fluctuations of data that hinders
perception of an expected signal. Acoustic noise is any sound in
the acoustic domain, either deliberate (e.g., music or speech) or
unintended. In contrast, noise in electronics may not be audible to
the human ear and may require instruments for detection.
Environmental noise is the accumulation of all noise present in a
specified environment. The principal sources of environmental
noise are surface motor vehicles, aircraft, trains and industrial
sources. These noise sources expose millions of people to noise
pollution that creates not only annoyance, but also significant
health consequences such as elevated incidence of hearing loss
and cardiovascular disease. There are a variety of mitigation
strategies and controls available to reduce sound levels including
source intensity reduction, land use planning strategies, noise
barriers and sound baffles, time of day use regimens, vehicle
operational controls and architectural acoustics design measures.
