Study of the Impact of Cool Roof on Urban Thermal Comfort in Hot Arid Climate, Biskra – Algeria

Proceedings of the International Conference of Contemporary Affairs in Architecture and Urbanism-ICCAUA, 2019
The Uncontrolled urban sprawl and the unadopted building to the environment are the main causes that generate the urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon.

A Hybrid Fuzzy–Support Vector Machine Framework for Real‐Time Dust Detection and Thermal Mapping in Photovoltaic Panels

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A hybrid Fuzzy–SVM framework for real‐time dust detection and thermal mapping in PV panels. ABSTRACT Dust accumulation significantly degrades the energy output of photovoltaic (PV) panels, particularly in arid and semi‐arid regions. While existing studies have separately explored image‐based dust detection, environmental modeling, and machine learning (

Integrating Remote Sensing and Machine Learning for Enhanced Surface Urban Heat Island Analysis and Its Impact on Building Energy Demand

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Satellite (MODIS) mapping links Urban Heat Island (UHI) intensity to city‐scale energy demand—higher daytime cooling demand and altered nighttime heating demand—supporting targeted mitigation and planning. ABSTRACT This study examines the surface urban heat island (SUHI) effect on building energy consumption in Tehran from 1998 to 2024, utilizing MODIS

Integrated tree canopy expansion and cool roofs can optimize air temperature and heat exposure reductions in Boston

Communications Earth & Environment
Tree canopy expansion and albedo management represent pathways to reduce urban heat. Here we develop a statistical model to downscale coarse resolution estimates of air temperature and estimate marginal impacts of tree canopy and cool roof solutions ...
