The diffuser design of ventilated facades

open access: yesMagazine of Civil Engineering, 2013
The main problem in the design of front systems is an empirical choice of parameters and the air gap between the cladding panels, causing appear of unventilated layer. Inadequate ventilation leads to icing of substructure elements that go into the air ventilated gap, and the top layer in winter, reduction of heat-protective properties as a whole.

Integrating interactive kinetic façade design with colored glass to improve daylight performance based on occupants’ position

open access: yesJournal of Building Engineering, 2020
The dynamic nature of daylight and occupant's position can cause some issues such as heat gains and visual discomfort, which need to be controlled in real-time operation.

Design strategies in facades for the reduction of housing energy consumption [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This article analyzes the energy-saving potential of various facade design strategies from a life cycle perspective, including the energy needed in the use stage and the embodied energy of materials. The results provide reference data on the behaviour of

A morphological approach for kinetic façade design process to improve visual and thermal comfort: Review

open access: yesBuilding and Environment, 2019
Visual and thermal comfort for occupants significantly depend on exterior environmental climatic conditions, which are continuously changing. In particular, optimizing visual and thermal comfort simultaneously is a difficult topic due to mutual conflicts

High Light Utilization and Color Rendering in Vacuum‐Deposited Semitransparent Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, low bandgap (≈1.55 eV) semitransparent perovskite solar cells (ST‐PSCs) having thin (thickness < ≈100 nm) perovskite layers and transparent conductive oxide‐based rear electrodes are fabricated using vacuum‐deposition methods. Two different ST‐PSCs demonstrated a high light utilization efficiency value of 4.2 (PCE: 9.26% and AVT: 45.3 ...

Transparent Perovskite Light‐Emitting Diodes with Conductive Oxide Top Electrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Transparent perovskite light‐emitting diodes (TrPeLEDs) enable simultaneous display and transparency, expanding application possibilities. Using a metal oxide buffer layer and pulsed laser deposition, TrPeLEDs with diverse compositions and architectures are demonstrated.

Sound fields near building facades: comparison of finite and semi-infinite reflectors on a rigid ground plane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The sound field in front of, and close to a building facade is relevant to the measurement and prediction of environmental noise and sound insulation. For simplicity it is often assumed that the facade can be treated as a semi-infinite reflector, however
