The bioclimatic potential of the Crimea [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesThe assessment of the bioclimatic potential of the Crimean Peninsula according to the Shashko method is given. The main indicators in this technique are the sum of temperatures above 10 °C and humidity deficiency. It was found that there are high indicators of bioclimatic potential on the territory of the peninsula, but certain patterns are observed ...

Bioclimatic Design for Informal Settlements
, 2017 In this paper, a review of the reasons hindering the use of bioclimatic design principles in informal settlements is attempted and the perspective of bioclimatic design in those contexts is discussed. Among the main candidate reasons is the habit of mind induced by the belief that informal settlements grow organically, so as to invariably end up being ...

Bioclimatism in architecture: An evolutionary perspective [PDF]
International Journal of Design & Nature and Ecodynamics, 2017 Fundamentals of vernacular architecture have been used in bioclimatic architecture which has gradually become the inspiration of various movements in contemporary architecture. The study points out that the development of bioclimatism in architecture has followed the pattern of a natural evolutionary process in which “natural selection” is likely ...
