The paper examines how emotional reactions (spiritual sense) to colour within religious architectural like mosque can be empirically measured and the best colour palette for mosques proposed. First, the concept of colour and its status in the Nasir Al-Molk mosque is defined based on a descriptive-analytical approach. Then, an experiment has been performed using quantitative electroencephalography waves (brain map), between the statistical population with 18 people sample size. The analysis of the data extracted showed a significant difference between the two conditions (Normal) and (Test) in the frequency of beta, theta and alpha. ‘The highest increase in alpha’ and ‘the highest decrease in the theta/beta parameter’ (Two criteria for promoting spirituality) belong to the ‘North Porch’ image. Other priorities, respectively, are South Porch, Eastern Corridor, Eastern Shabestan and Western Shabestan. So ‘turquoise’, ‘green’ and ‘blue’ colours (colour spectra of image ‘North Porch’) increase the spiritual sense.

Dynamic solar screens are operable façade shading systems with perforations that are designed using parametric processes. Architects and facade designers have continually applied design patterns of aesthetically and culturally significant vernacular solar screens for creating contemporary facades in their static-fixed or dynamic-operable states. The purpose of this investigation is to review previous work on dynamic screens and related façade shading, identify research gaps, highlight methodological limitations, and propose future investigation of their unexplored impacts. Solar screens investigated in previous studies were categorized into different types for meta-analysis of their building energy and indoor environmental performance in tropical climates. Several gaps related to the influence of dynamic screens on occupant’s comfort in the indoor environment were identified. Realizing the importance of keeping occupant wellness at the top priority in building design, the authors have proposed a set of hypotheses that describe approaches to investigate and design dynamic screens for occupant well-being.

Within architecture, microalgae are employed to address sustainability issues and mitigate the impacts of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. This study proposes digital fabrication of ceramic ‘living’ building components as an investigative tool for design conditions. The health of the chlorophyte (green) microalga Chlorella vulgaris was monitored over two-week periods when immobilized in kappa carrageenan and clay binder-based hydrogels, and grown on a range of digitally fabricated ceramic components. The use of 3D printing is presented in relation to laboratory testing of controlled substrate variables including the impact of ceramic firing temperature, component wall thickness, three types of geometry for exploring cell growth, surface patterns to investigate cell migration, internal chamber subdivisions and clay type. The experiments reveal the benefits and limitations of creating micro-ecologies for algae growth through the introduction of geometry variation. In this study, the natural organismal sensing abilities are explored as a means for cell distribution.

This study seeks to evaluate the efficacy of several passive design strategies to reduce the risk of overheating in a Compressed Stabilized Earth Brick (CSEB) house situated in Johannesburg. The roof features CSEB masonry vaults and the walls were built from dry-stack (mortarless) masonry. The vaults were initially coated with maroon paint, which resulted in uncomfortably high temperatures during summer months. Several passive design strategies were considered to improve the thermal performance, and the effectiveness of each were assessed against the CIBSE TM52: 2013 overheating criteria. Surface shading and painting external surfaces white were especially effective at reducing the potential of overheating in the first-floor vaults. Ventilating the space in the late afternoon and evening reduced the period during which indoor operative temperatures exceeded Tmax. An insulated ceiling proved effective at reducing the indoor temperature in early- and late-summer but had little impact on the severity of overheating during mid-summer.

This study suggests a natural language processing framework for collecting, analyzing, and, visualizing online natural language data, consisting of a web crawler for data collection, tokenizer for text preprocessing, Word2vec for word embedding, and deep-learning long short-term memory networks for sentiment classification. The framework was exemplified on online brokerage platforms in New York City and Seoul. The visualized framework-driven results showed regional similarities and differences between the cities. The proposed approach provides a way to gather big data, not through surveys or interviews. The framework-driven analysis may provide descriptive precursors to explore how laypersons experience built environments and city spaces.

COVID-19 has caused public health and economic crises in many countries including the United States. Engineering control strategies are cited by leading agencies as the second effective recommendation after virus elimination to safer reopen buildings during the pandemic. This paper systematically surveyed and synthesized highly cited architectural guidelines in the U.S. published by leading agencies. As reviewed in this paper, all reviewed architectural strategies agreed on the importance of increasing outdoor air ventilation and maintaining social distancing, without specific consideration of the potential impact of these strategies on other aspects of buildings and occupants. Thus, this paper provides foundational knowledge for future studies around safer buildings during future pandemics and suggests conducting more pre/post-occupancy evaluations that incorporate human-centered studies and building performance analysis, using qualitative and quantitative methods to support various building stakeholders in making more informed decisions around recommendations to positively and holistically impact occupants and buildings.

Limited by the climate, economic level and energy-saving awareness of rural residents in the western China, rural houses are still in a stage of high energy consumption (EC) and low comfort. The passive design strategies should be given priority to provide an optimal design mode. The challenge is to find the best combination of design parameters. In this paper, rural single-storey detached houses are taken as the research objects. Three conflicted indicators are set as the objective function, namely building EC, thermal comfort and economy. The investigated design variables include building orientation, insulating layer thickness, window width & type, and indoor design temperature. A methodology of combining EnergyPlus and MOBO is used for multi-objective optimization, thus getting the Pareto solutions and using the weighted sum method to obtain the optimum parameter combinations. The proposed methodology for simulation-based multi-objective optimization is a useful tool to facilitate decision-making in building design. Highlights An automated optimization method of combining EnergyPlus simulation software and MOBO optimization engine is proposed. The multi-objective method optimizes the building orientation, envelope and winter indoor temperature. Pareto non-dominated solutions for three conflict objective functions are obtained. The final optimum combination is determined by a weighted sum method.

This study focuses on the effects of the independent spatial variables of volumetric visibility, natural light, and the infinity index value on both perceived openness and spaciousness, and on the concept of familiarity, using computer-generated images of sixteen nodes of a university building. Ninety participants in three groups from two universities were selected to examine the effects of familiarity on the dependent variables of openness and spaciousness. These dependent variables of perception were explored through a semantic evaluation test, where the participants experienced the sixteen spatial nodes in a virtual environment derived from fixed vantage points on two floors of the case study campus building. The results revealed that the perceived spaciousness is significantly correlated to the independent physical aspects of space, such as the volumetric visibility, the natural light, and the infinity value, while familiarity with space indicated a higher ratio of perceived openness.

This paper explores the design approach of multi-atrium configurations to improve the energy efficiency of shopping malls in cold climates. A typical building prototype in northern China was considered, and an artificial neural network (ANN)-based metamodel was developed with four design variables: the atrium area ratio (r), atrium number (n), distance between adjacent atriums (d 0), and distance between atrium and façade wall (d 1). The proposed metamodel was used for sensitivity analysis (SA) and building design optimization (BDO) to understand the performance of multi-atrium configuration. The SA indicates that the contribution of the design variables to the building energy efficiency follows the order r > d 0 > n > d 1, and there are interactions between variables r and n. The BDO demonstrates that it is beneficial for energy efficiency to incorporate more atrium areas, appropriate atrium sizes, larger distances between adjacent atriums, and more west-facing atriums.
本文探讨了多中庭配置的设计方法,以提高寒冷气候下购物中心的能源效率。以中国北方典型建筑为例,建立了基于人工神经网络(ANN)的中庭面积比(r)、中庭数量(n)、相邻中庭之间距离(d 0)和中庭与立面墙之间距离(d 1)四个设计变量的元模型,并将该模型用于敏感性分析(SA)和建筑设计优化(BDO),以了解多中庭配置的性能。SA表明,设计变量对建筑能效的贡献顺序为r b> d 0 > n > d1,变量r和n之间存在相互作用。BDO表明,增加中庭面积、适当的中庭大小、相邻中庭之间的较大距离和更多朝西的中庭有利于提高能效。

Developments in cognitive neuroscience and brain imaging technologies make it possible to interface directly with the human brain using sensors. Brain activity during the navigation of built space is influenced by user perception and cognition in interaction with visual stimuli. This paper has a fourfold aim: (a) to elucidate the concept of design evaluation for human well-being; (b) to investigate the principal available methodologies for non-invasive human neurological response monitoring; (c) to explain the visual simulator specification used for virtual environments; (d) to review systematically the existing literature that employed empirical methodology for the integration of an immersive visual virtual system with biometric data collection used in architecture design evaluation for pre- or post-occupancy. The paper concludes with considerations for implementing a comprehensive approach that uses biometric response as a method of design evaluation for future research.
