Cities consume over two-thirds of the world’s energy and account for more than 70% of global CO₂ emissions. Given these negative impacts, cities are major contributors to climate change, one of the most pressing challenges of the 21st century. As dynamic organ…

This study investigates the return on investment (ROI) of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in the construction industry and addresses common barriers to its adoption such as high start-up costs and lack of familiarity with the technology. Despite its prove…

Heritage restoration projects face numerous challenges, including the preservation of historical accuracy, effective stakeholder collaboration, and maintaining transparent records of interventions. This paper proposes a theoretical framework that integrates Bu…

This study offers a comparative analysis of construction risk management practices in the United Kingdom (UK) and Türkiye, focusing on regulatory frameworks, technological integration, and practical methodologies. The UK, utilizing the Construction (Design and…

This paper explores the transformative role of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in enhancing stakeholder engagement in transportation infrastructure projects. Drawing on literature, real-world case studies, and survey results from 32 stakeholders, the rese…

Market democratization through conversational AI represents a critical frontier in financial technology, yet cryptocurrency analysis remains dominated by institutional players with sophisticated toolchains. We introduce AICrypto-Assistant, the first open-sourc…

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…

In this study, a classification problem is discussed to predict whether individuals' annual income levels are above $50,000. The UCI Adult Income Dataset, which is derived from the 1994 US Census (Census) data and is widely used in the field of machine learnin…

This paper explores how intra-day volatility behaves across different weekdays during periods of major financial stress, focusing specifically on the S&P 500 and NASDAQ-100 indices. The analysis spans two significant market disruptions—the 2008 Global Financia…

Courtyards hold significant functional value in both traditional and contemporary architecture. They serve as open-air spaces that facilitate social interaction for users within urban environments. In order for these spaces to be utilized more efficiently by u…

Kayseri’nin Talas ilçesi, yüzyıllar boyunca pek çok medeniyete ev sahipliği yapmış, bu süreçte önemli kültürel izler bırakan tarihi yapılarla zenginleşmiştir. Ancak bu yapılardan bazıları, çeşitli doğal ve insan kaynaklı etkenler nedeniyle ciddi ölçüde tahrip …

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…

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…

A universally applicable “optimal photobioreactor” design has yet to be established, as the success of such systems varies depending on the algal species used, environmental conditions, and intended applications. Meanwhile, the accelerating pace of climate cha…

The emergence of Open Finance is reshaping the global financial landscape by enabling greater data accessibility, interoperability, and innovation. However, this expanded connectivity introduces new layers of regulatory complexity, raising urgent concerns rega…

We developed a series of financial social media sentiment analysis models starting with PyFin-Sentiment, a recent state-of-the-art domain-specific large language model for the financial domain. We focused on label accuracy and improvements in the quality and q…

This paper explores the role of archival study in exploring site integrity within the Historic Urban Landscape (HUL) framework, using the case of Islamic heritage sites in Java, Indonesia. In contexts where material traces have been lost or obscured, archival …

Afet risklerinin azaltılmasında, fiziksel zarar görebilirlik düzeylerinin mekânsal olarak belirlenmesi ve görselleştirilmesi, kentsel dayanıklılığın artırılması açısından kritik bir öneme sahiptir. Bu çalışma, Amasya kent merkezinde afet kaynaklı fiziksel kırı…

Efficient semantic segmentation and compression of 3D point cloud data are essential for enabling scalable, real-world applications involving large-scale LiDAR environments. This work presents a lightweight hybrid framework that integrates point transformer v3…
