Toward Thermal Comfort Assessment and Modelling: A Literature Review Open
Managing thermal comfort in built environments is a challenging task that requires addressing occupants' diverse preferences and adapting to changing external conditions. Indoor environment quality significantly influences human thermal co…

Cell Deformation Signatures along the Apical-Basal Axis: A 3D Continuum Mechanics Shell Model. Open
Two-dimensional (2D) mechanical models of confluent tissues have related the mechanical state of a monolayer of cells to the average perimeter length of the cell cross sections, predicting floppiness or rigidity of the material. For the we…

Importance of taking into account the thermal mass in simulations for a non-air-conditioned house Open
Building thermal simulation (BTS) programs are being increasingly used to evaluate the occupants’ thermal comfort and the building’s energy consumption. Although some authors have pointed out that not taking into account the thermal mass o…

Bioclimatic design and low energy cooling systems at IER-UNAM Open
This article presents some strategies of bioclimatic design for hot-subhumid climate and of low energy cooling systems and how they have been implemented at the IER-UNAM buildings since 1985. Some of the experimental and numerical simulati…
