Analysis of thermal field within an urban canyon with variable thermophysical characteristics of the building's walls. [PDF]
, 2015 In a typical urban configuration, a microclimatic analysis has been carried out. Using a CFD method, a N-S oriented urban street canyon, with a given H/W ratio, has been examined.

Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering, 2023 Buildings incorporating kinetic architecture are designed to allow parts of the structure to move without reducing the structural integrity of the building. This is believed to substantially improve both energy efficiency and lighting performance.
