Campus as a Living Lab: Using the BEAM Framework and Digital Twin to Address Urban Microclimate Challenges Open
The rising urban heat island (UHI) effect poses significant challenges for cities, intensifying the need for effective mitigation strategies to safeguard public health, comfort, and environmental sustainability. This paper presents an over…
Indoor Thermal Environment in Different Generations of Naturally Ventilated Public Residential Buildings in Singapore Open
This study aims to evaluate and compare the indoor air velocities and thermal environment inside different generations of public residential buildings developed by the Housing and Development Board (HDB) of Singapore and analyze the impact…
INDOOR THERMAL COMFORT ASSESSMENT OF NATURALLY VENTILATED ATRIUMS IN SINGAPORE Open
This research looks into the aspect of Thermal Comfort (TC) in naturally ventilated (NV) buildings, in this case NV atriums. Compared to fully air-conditioned buildings, NV buildings tend to have better indoor air quality (IAQ), but worse …
INDOOR THERMAL COMFORT ASSESSMENT OF NATURALLY VENTILATED ATRIUMS IN SINGAPORE Open
This research looks into the aspect of Thermal Comfort (TC) in naturally ventilated (NV) buildings, in this case NV atriums. Compared to fully air-conditioned buildings, NV buildings tend to have better indoor air quality (IAQ), but worse …
CFD Methodology Development for Singapore Green Mark Building Application Open
In the recent decade, investigation on the total building performance has become increasingly important for the environmental modelling community. With the advance of integrated design and modelling tool and Building Information Modelling …
Indoor Thermal Comfort Assessment of Industrial Buildings in Singapore Open
In a tropical climate such as Singapore, as compared to fully air-conditioned buildings, naturally ventilated (NV) buildings tend to have lower Thermal Comfort (TC) condition. This research investigates and develops a thermal comfort asses…
