Adaptive comfort model for tree-shaded outdoors in Taiwan

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed an adaptive comfort model for tree-shaded spaces, which can reduce the heat effect by ameliorating the microclimate and enhancing the human thermal comfort outdoors; they are main places for rest, recreation and social activity in Taiwan's cities.

The influence of an architectural design alternative (transoms) on indoor air environment in conventional kitchens in Taiwan

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate indoor air environment via the flow fields, temperature fields and air contaminant distributions in the conventional residential kitchens, and look for effective methods to solve those problems through natural ventilation techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Residential thermal environment in cold climates at high altitudes and building energy use implications

TL;DR: In this paper, a subjective questionnaire survey in terms of thermal sensation votes (TSVs) and objective on-site measurements were carried out to evaluate the thermal comfort conditions in residential buildings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental and numerical investigation of micro-environmental conditions in public transportation buses

TL;DR: The elevated CO2 level indicates that the current bus ventilation is insufficient to dilute air pollutants in the bus especially under heavy occupancy conditions, and this lack of sufficient ventilation indicates an elevated risk for airborne transmitted diseases in such a popular public transportation system.

A digital workflow to quantify regenerative urban design in the context of a changing climate

TL;DR: A prototype workflow to evaluate regenerative performance using existing evaluation tools in a single digital workflow to receive visual feedback on various aspects of regenerative urban design, thus enabling designers to more effectively pursue an evidence-based urban design process.
