Daylighting has attracted increasing attention from researchers as an energy-efficient and sustainable building design technique. This research investigates the daylighting of atrium courtyard by comparing performance various Window to Wall Ratios (WWR) appropriate Malaysia's tropical climate. The most acceptable option for daylight was specify a moderate WWR value 30% with shading devices. res...

• Specific urban microclimates are not considered by building energy simulation tools. Numerical modelling with multi-nodal outdoor conditions is developed. The aim to quantify the benefits of specific in performance. A reference case a courtyard microclimate was measured, simulated and validated. Courtyard mitigates impact extreme heat buildings. Extreme events expected occur more often as con...

Sustainable passive design strategies can reduce the energy consumption of buildings. In this regard, inner courtyards act as microclimate modifiers that enhance perception comfort in surrounding environment. The present study, through a pooled analysis experimental and numerical data, intends to assess beneficial effect have reducing buildings, especially for cooling demand. Accordingly, new m...

Given more than seven thousand years of urbanization and highly diverse topographic andgeographical conditions, Iran is one of the treasures through the world's architectural history. Climatic diversity,on the one hand, and long history of living, on the other hand, has led to noteworthy and valuable achievement inarchitecture and urbanization within this country. However, these elements are le...

the present study focuses on the formation of various types of yards in mosques and the elements that contribute to the respective process. the significance of the issue lies in that certain scholars have associated the yard in mosques with the concept of garden, and have not taken into account the elements that contribute to the development of mosque yards of various types. the theoretical fin...
