Optimizing the Shading Device Configuration of Kinetic Façades through Daylighting Performance Assessment

open access: yesBuildings
When designing a façade, it is essential to consider the impact of daylight and how it can be optimized through external movable shading devices. To accurately evaluate the lighting performance of a kinetic facade, it is crucial to consider the operation

A Survey of Methods for Constructing 3D Urban Models From Point Clouds

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
The survey outlines a general process for constructing 3D models from point clouds and categorizes the methods based on their use of templates, basic surface primitives, hybrid approaches, or linear primitives. Additionally, the survey reviews the datasets and benchmarks that are essential for testing and training the developed methods.

Integrated Kinetic Fins for Western Facades in Territories with Low Solar Altitudes

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Insufficient daylighting can negatively affect working quality and productivity and increase lighting energy consumption in buildings. Particularly, the western orientation has a non-uniform daylighting distribution, especially at the zone next to the window resulting from the unequal radiation distribution of sunlight.

Enhanced Roofs for Passive Building Design: A Systematic Review of Thermal and Energy Performance

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
This systematic review evaluates PCM‐ and NePCM‐integrated roofing systems for passive cooling. PCM roofs reduce heat flux and indoor temperature fluctuations, while NePCMs improve thermal conductivity with latent heat trade‐offs. Hybrid cooling strategies enhance performance, and future challenges in scalability, durability, and practical ...

EXPLORING NEW FORMS WITH PARAMETRIC PATTERNS FOR RESPONSIVE FACADES: A CASE ON KINETIC JALI DESIGN

open access: yesPeriodica Polytechnica Architecture, 2021
interface between the building and the environment. The effective and smart façades that are designed to adapt the environmental conditions date back when windows and ventilators were designed carefully in response to the site conditions. In the last few decades, the emphasis on energy consumption and reduction has increased drastically, as technology ...
