Probabilistic Analysis of Passive Cooling Strategies and Occupant Behaviour
This thesis establishes the definition of apartment typologies through a multidimensional approach, a sensitivity analysis with the aim of assessing the possibilities to reduce the risk of overheating
Solar Energy Houses
Passive and active solar strategies together with the adoption of energy conservation measures and the integration of new materials and technologies can lead to a dramatic reduction of 75-90 per cent in the energy consumption of the buildings. The objective of Task 13 of the IEA's Solar Heating and Cooling Programme was to advance solar building technologies and demonstrate this potential by designing and constructing buildings that met very low energy consumption targets while maintaining a good indoor climate. This revised second edition of this book presents the findings of the Task 13 experts and includes the results of the monitoring programme, conducted to determine the effectives of the techniques and strategies adopted. This new edition also provides a detailed explanation of this research programme in terms of how far the expectations of the Task experts were met and highlights the specific successes and lessons learned from the project.
A Tool for Design Decision Making
This thesis investigates the use of building performance simulation tools as a method of informing the design decision of Net Zero Energy Buildings (NZEBs).
Architecture, City, Environment
PLEA is a network of individuals sharing expertise in the arts, sciences, planning and design of the built environment. It serves as an international, interdisciplinary forum to promote discourse on environmental quality in architecture and planning. This 17th PLEA international conference addresses sustainable design with respect to architecture, city and environment at the turn of the millennium. The central aim of the conference is to explore the interrelationships and integration of architecture, city and environment. The Proceedings will be of interest to all those involved in bioclimatic design and the application of natural and innovative techniques to architecture and planning. The conference is organised by the Martin Centre for Architectural and Urban Studies, University of Cambridge and the Cambridge Programme for Industry, University of Cambridge.
Recherche et enseignement en architecture, génie architectural, urbanisme
Quand la recherche nourrit l'enseignement, quand l’enseignement impacte la recherche, des ponts se construisent. De part et d’autre, une intention commune: comprendre le monde par le traitement des savoirs. Comme le décrit Diane Leduc dans son introduction, les enseignants-chercheurs poursuivent une double finalité: résoudre des problèmes et créer de nouveaux savoirs, d’une part, et transformer les savoirs en situations d’apprentissage, d’autre part. Dans cet ouvrage collectif, les articles sont répartis en trois parties, chacune symbolisant un type de ponts: les ponts assurant des connexions directes entre enseignement et recherche, les ponts ancrés dans l’expérimentation et pouvant mener à des retombées sur le plan de l'enseignement et, enfin, les ponts entre différentes disciplines, qui permettent de dégager des hybridations de savoirs sur l’espace et le construit.
Architectural Draughtsmanship
This is the proceedings of the XVI International Congress of Graphic Design in Architecture, EGA 2016, held in Alcalá de Henares, Spain, in June 2016. About 200 professionals and researchers from 18 different countries attended the Congress. This book will be of interest to researchers in the field of architecture and Engineering. Topics discussed are Innovations in Architecture, graphic design and architecture, history and heritage among others.
