Guidelines for bioclimatic housing design in Greece
Building and Environment, 1990Abstract This paper details a set of guidelines for the design of thermally efficient houses in the generally temperate climate of Greece, using the common construction materials of Greek contemporary housing and employing simple passive design techniques. The guidelines should be of use to the designers of climate sensitive housing in Greece.

Passivhaus contra bioclimatic design
Bauphysik, 2008AbstractIn recent years, Passivhaus has become religious movement. It steals into various European strategic documents like Action Plan for Energy Efficiency: Realising the Potential (2006) and Resolution of European Parliament (2007/2106(INI)). This article deals with the concept of internal environment and compares the passive and the bioclimatic ...

Bioclimatic Design—Where to Start?
2019In a similar manner as plants, through the millennia animals and humans have adapted to the environmental constraints. In addition, buildings have evolved in order to respond to the environment. Bioclimatic building design is an engineering practice where the primary focus is on the building’s performance in respect to the given environmental ...

Design and Construction of Bioclimatic Wooden Greenhouses 3
2022The book is the first of a series of four dealing with bioclimatic design and construction by focusing on the most basic and polyvalent of modern environmental systems: the bioclimatic greenhouse. More specifically, this third volume focuses on how the envelope of bioclimatic wooden greenhouses may be designed and built. In more general terms, it helps

Bioclimatic Design for Building Systems and Components
1984The central thesis of this work is the potential widespread and effective application of Bioclimatic Architecture, which represents an evolution beyond the past energy-bound concept of Passive Solar Systems, restricted to specific devices and components.

The development of the bioclimatic concept in building design
Renewable Energy, 1993Abstract The degree of accuracy of climate analysis is of great importance in the bioclimatic concept of building design. The accuracy of utilized methodology in the climate analysis pre-design step is reflected later in the degree of accuracy, and to a certain extent, the validity of the final proposal of the bioclimatic design.

BIOCLIMATIC DESIGN MATRIX (TURKEY)
2019In this study using qualitative methods, context of approaches to literature search bioclimatic architecture is defined. The relationship pattern is transformed into a design matrix that can be used to provide optimum indoor comfort at least in the hot season (winter) and the hottest season (summer) by describing the strategies and concepts related to ...
