This review explores the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing energy efficiency within heritage buildings, focusing on balancing sustainability goals with the preservation of historical and architectural integrity. AI technologies such as Building…
Artificial lighting is an important part of global electricity consumption. At office buildings, the energy consumed by artificial lighting can reach up to 40% of total energy consumption. This work is being done to find solutions to such problems with energy …
Energy demand in the 21st century is increasing continually. This increase in energy demand is one of the factors affecting the increase in universal problems. Energy is produced using both renewable and non-renewable resources. Therefore, energy consumption…
Energy is at the forefront of the needs to maintain the continuity of life and make it easier, and the energy demand is increasingly dependent on population growth. Today, fossil energy resources are widely used to meet energy demand and renewable energy resou…
A theoretical design assessment performed here to evaluate the idea of utilizing wave energy in the Red sea to power electric-cargo ships, in the route between Port Sudan and Jeddah Islamic port. The calculated mean wave power in 2018 was (1.4 MW), five wave p…
The successful estimation of future electricity consumption has a crucial importance in the energy planning. Because, in order to meet rising energy demand, policy makers should formulate electricity supply policies and make critical decisions and develop ne…
Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems are widely adopted for sustainable energy production; however, physical defects such as glass breakage significantly reduce panel efficiency and system output. In this study, a real-world case analysis was conducted on a 1003 kW…
Building automation and control systems (BACs) allow plants in buildings to be controlled and managed, thus increasing the users' comfort and reducing the operation and maintenance costs. As far as the lighting services are concerned, control systems offer an …
The unlimited nature of consumption and needs contrasts with the scarcity of usable resources, necessitating the optimal use of available resources. Alongside the careful protection of the environment and human health, it is crucial to meet needs with maximum …
The collective system, which includes the automation system, data exchanges and production technologies is referred to as Industry 4.0. This system has two main components. The first is the new generation of software and hardware, and the second is the cyber p…
Renewable energy can be produced by using kinetic energy of the flowing water such as rivers, ocean currents and tidal flows. The kinetic energy can be transformed to the power by hydrokinetic turbines. There are many different designs of hydrokinetic turbin…
In this study, thermodynamic analysis of a geothermal power-based district energy conversion system which produces electricity, hot water, heating and cooling are investigated. The energy produced from geothermal resource can be utilized to drive a double stag…
This paper examines the development of sustainable architectural design strategies in office buildings from 1970 to the present. Drawing on literature, policies, and historical examples, it traces the transformation of sustainability from a loosely defined env…
The aim of this study is to forecast installed wind power which is a one of the renewable energy resources in Turkey for the year of 2017 based on artificial neural network method using the normalized last ten-year data. An artificial neural network has been c…
This study proposes a climate-adaptive framework for modular micro-living units as a construction-based response to growing urban challenges related to climate resilience, densification, and housing affordability. The design integrates prefabricated cross-lami…
Günümüzde gelişen teknolojiyle birlikte artan sera gazı emisyonları ve küresel ısınma problemleri yenilenebilir enerji kaynaklarının kullanımını önemli ölçüde artırmıştır. Yenilenebilir enerji kaynakları güneş enerjisi, rüzgar enerjisi, jeotermal enerji, hidro…
In this study, the effect of using a mixture of butanol and diesel fuel in a small diesel engine on engine performance and exhaust emissions is modeled. A comparison has been made with artificial neural networks, which is an up-to-date method, and multiple l…
This study presents a comprehensive overview of biophilic design research that incorporates ecological considerations, specifically focusing on energy efficiency, thermal comfort, and sustainability. While biophilic design has traditionally emphasized human we…
Günümüzde, enerji ihtiyacının karşılanmasında fosil yakıtların kullanımı sınırlı kaynakları ve çevresel etkileri nedeniyle sürdürülemez hale gelmiştir. Bu durum, temiz, çevreci ve sürdürülebilir alternatiflerin, özellikle güneş, rüzgâr ve biyokütle gibi yenile…
