Bina Performans Optimizasyonu ve Bina Kullanıcı Konforunun Artırılması için Takip Kavramlarının İncelenmesi Uçak, Emel; Topak, Fatih; Pekeriçli, Mehmet Koray (2024-5-03) Bina performansı ve kullanıcı konforu, binaların çevresel etkisini azaltmak ve kullanıcı refahını sağlamak için önemlidir ve bu bağlamda takip kavramları, her iki olguyu eş zamanlı sağlamak için önemli bir stratejidir. Bu ...
Yapı Tasarımı ve İşletiminde Bina Kullanıcılarının Dikkate Alınması: Türkiye Bağlamı Topak, Fatih (2024-5-02) Son yirmi yılda farklı kapsamlarda yapılan çalışmalarla birlikte, binalarda kullanılan enerji miktarının ve insanların iç mekân çevresel koşullarına dair memnuniyetlerinin, insan-yapı etkileşimleri ile doğrudan ilişkili ol...
The role of user controls with respect to indoor environmental quality: From evidence to standards Berger, Christiane; Mahdavi, Ardeshir; Ampatzi, Eleni; Bandurski, Karol; Hellwig, Runa T.; Schweiker, Marcel; Topak, Fatih; Zgank, Miha (2023-07-01) There are important reasons to offer building users the possibility to adjust indoor-environmental conditions. For one thing, people sharing the same indoor environment, may have different needs, requirements, and pr...
Analysis of Thermal Distribution Patterns in Multi-Occupancy Environments Topak, Fatih; Pavlak, Gregory S.; Pekeriçli, Mehmet Koray; Wang, Julian (2023-06-24) Despite the large share of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in building energy use, the lack of thermal comfort is still considered as one of the unresolved issues for building occupants. While rec...
Collective comfort optimization in multi-occupancy environments by leveraging personal comfort models and thermal distribution patterns Topak, Fatih; Pavlak, Gregory; Pekeriçli, Mehmet Koray; Wang, Julian; Jazizadeh, Farrokh (2023-05-01) Buildings with shared spaces present a unique challenge for maintaining thermal comfort due to their dynamic occupancy patterns and the potential for wide variation in occupant thermal preferences and tolerances. Con...
