Dynamic thermal environment and thermal comfort
Indoor Air, 2015Research has shown that a stable thermal environment with tight temperature control cannot bring occupants more thermal comfort. Instead, such an environment will incur higher energy costs and produce greater CO2 emissions. Furthermore, this may lead to the degeneration of occupants' inherent ability to combat thermal stress, thereby weakening thermal ...

In this contribution, we study the free vibration of non-uniform nano-size beams in thermal environment. In order to capture the size-dependent effects, we adopt nonlocal strain gradient theory within a Timoshenko beam model.

Polycentric urban development and urban thermal environment: A case of Hangzhou, China
Landscape and Urban Planning, 2019Polycentric urban structure has become popular worldwide, including in China. Previous studies revealed that polycentricity can remediate certain environmental problems; however, few studies have focused on how polycentricity affects the urban thermal ...
