Design of Double‐Sided Optical Coatings for Space Cooling Through Vertical Windows
Advanced Photonics Research, Volume 6, Issue 6, June 2025.Dual‐sided radiative cooling glass (DSRCG) utilizes the optical properties of epsilon‐near‐zero materials and ITO to exhibit directional emission toward the outdoor space, facilitating the heat dissipation of the glass, while exhibiting low emission toward the enclosure.

The impact of urban geometry on the radiant environment in outdoor spaces [PDF]
, 2015 Urban geometry, namely the quantitative relationship of building volumes and open spaces (i.e. built density) and their spatial configuration (i.e. urban layout), is a major modifier of urban microclimate.

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2025.We identified 27 indicators that were grouped into 5 key areas: (1) surface and urban overheating indicators; (2) building type and structure indicators; (3) green infrastructure indicators; (4) soil‐sealing indicators; and (5) water‐sensitive urban development indicators. We concluded in the review that green infrastructure and soil‐sealing indicators,
