Abstract:
Abstract Building design is important for saving energy and reducing GHG emissions by applying passive solar heating and cooling design principles and using the right materials and appropriate design tools. This will make the home healthier and more comfortable. The design of energy efficient and sustainable buildings is critical for the future. A key aspect of any design is the realistic and accurate prediction of the performance of the building under a wide range of weather conditions.

Abstract:
The Passive House (PH) concept is considered an efficient strategy to reduce energy consumption in the building sector, where most of the energy is used for heating and cooling applications. For this reason, energy efficiency measures are increasingly implemented in the residential sector, which is the main responsible for such a consumption. The need for professionals dealing with energy issues, and particularly for architects during the early stages of their architectural design, is crucial when considering energy efficient buildings.

The development of zero-energy buildings (ZEBs) is a critical pillar for designing the sustainable cities of the future.

Specifically, the examined cooling techniques were radiative PV cells, externally finned PVs and the combination of PVs with phase-change materials. These ideas were compared

Nowadays buildings are no longer considered only as designed housing "objects". Comfort, consumption, environmental impacts are part of the words which appear utterly linked to every single building.

&lt;p&gt;Building new infrastructure is a crucial part for developing society. Bridges are one part of the infrastructure that has large impact on both cost and climate. Such impact depends on the bridge design, which should be carefully chosen early in the project with several possible alternatives. In Sweden, it has become quite common to evaluate the Life Cycle Cost (LCC) and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for different bridge alternatives. This study investigates how three different steel materials in a steel-concrete composite bridge have different impact in a Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA). In

Abstract:
In today's fast-changing world, the link between engineering and environmental protection is very important for higher education institutions (HEIs). As global issues like climate change, resource loss, and biodiversity decline grow, there is an urgent need for professionals who have both technical skills and environmental awareness. These academic programs help create a skilled workforce that can design solutions focusing on ecological sustainability and promote teamwork, connecting engineering and environmental sciences. Therefore, HEIs should focus on combining engineering with environmenta

Abstract:
Norway has a wide range of climatic conditions throughout the country. The climate varies from coastal to inland areas. Geographic latitude and longitude, as well as the gulf stream oceanic flow, account for this phenomenon. Different climate types can certainly affect residential building heating energy demands and make overheating more likely. On the other hand, a building's orientation has an impact on its heating energy requirements. A building's orientation affects how much solar gain it receives and how much wind it receives over the course of the year. Employing DesignBuilder® software,

Abstract Off-grid concepts for homes and buildings have been a fast-growing trend worldwide in the last few years because of the rapidly dropping cost of renewable energy systems and their self-sufficient nature. Off-grid homes/buildings can be enabled with various energy generation and storage technologies, however, design optimization and integration issues have not been explored sufficiently. This paper applies a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) optimization to obtain an optimal design of integrated distributed energy systems for off-grid homes in various U.S. climate regions.

Increased production rates and cost reduction are affecting manufacturing in all sectors of the mobility industry. One enabling methodology that could achieve these goals in the burgeoning “Industry 4.0” environment is the deterministic assembly (DA) approach. The DA approach is defined as an optimized assembly process; it always forms the same final structure and has a strong link to design-for-assembly and design-for-automation methodologies. It also looks at the whole supply chain, enabling drastic savings at the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) level by reducing recurring costs and le
