Back to design fundamentals: The step and the eye
(2019)Space Syntax has often been associated with techniques and computer methods. Its basic concept though lays beyond the techniques: it’s a way of understanding space. The fundamental idea is that space is been perceived, ... -
Balancing buildings and occupants-a holistic approach to thermal comfort and greenhouse gas emissions in mixed mode offices
(2010)This paper describes a holistic approach to comfort and greenhouse gas emissions in mixed mode offices. It is based on parametric studies for a typical cellular office in the Mediterranean climate of Athens, Greece, using ... -
The effect of the daylight zone on lighting energy savings
(2020)Daylighting is the cornerstone of low energy building design. Therefore, the adoption of a daylight - harvesting lighting control system can substantially increase lighting energy savings. These are strongly depended on ... -
Impact of building design and occupancy on office comfort and energy performance in different climates
(2014)The building sector has a significant share in a county's total greenhouse gas emissions, and as a reaction to the Kyoto commitment most countries are constantly adjusting building energy requirements in order to reduce ... -
Impact of climate change on thermal comfort and energy performance in offices - A parametric study
(2012)This paper investigates the impact of climate change on comfort and energy performance in offices in relation to the influence of building design and occupants. It focuses on a typical cellular office room in the context ... -
Influence of variability of material mechanical properties on seismic performance of steel and steel–concrete composite structures
(2017)Modern standards for constructions in seismic zones allow the construction of buildings able to dissipate the energy of the seismic input through an appropriate location of cyclic plastic deformations involving the largest ... -
Occupant interaction with the interior environment in Greek dwellings during summer
(2011)User behaviour significantly affects energy consumption simulation estimates, which can consequently influence architectural design decisions at an early stage. Different regional behavioural patterns could, therefore, ... -
Pareto optimal structural models and predictions consistent with data and modal residuals
(2008)A multi-objective identification method for model updating based on modal residuals is proposed. The method results in multiple Pareto optimal structural models that are consistent with the measured modal data, the class ... -
Shading and daylight systems
(2015)Shading can have an impact on both building’s energy balance affecting not only annual energy consumption but peak loads as well. In addition influences users’ visual and thermal comfort. Proper selection of shading system ...
