DOI: 10.1016/j.autcon.2018.07.002

Abstract: Abstract This research integrates cooling systems as a variable in the multi-objective optimisation of building form and envelope design in the early design stages. The integration is achieved by 1) using a simplified calculation that… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jobe.2017.11.023

Abstract: Abstract During early building design stages, decisions are made regarding building's form, orientation, distribution, and size of glazing. Although these features are crucial for building energy performance, designers rarely base their decisions on elaborate energy… read more here.

DOI: 10.1098/rsos.241953

Abstract: Existing buildings generate 30% of global emissions because of the energy required to heat, cool and power them. Mass improvements in building fabric efficiency and heating/cooling systems are therefore imperative. Fast-running modelling approaches are thus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1504/ijssoc.2018.10020408

Abstract: Building Standard Law (BSL) in Japan serves to establish minimum standards relating to the site, structure, facility, and function of buildings. Building form regulation (BFR) in BSL controls the building volume according to the zone… read more here.
