Visual planning and urbanism in the mid-twentieth century: Conference at Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, 11-13 September 2007
(International Seminar on Urban Form, 2008)Planning attitudes with a particular focus on visual and three-dimensional planning have been insufficiently studied in histories of modernism. This conference, sponsored by the UK Arts and Humanities Research Council, ... -
Exploring house price dynamics: An agent-based simulation with behavioral heterogeneity
(Springer, 2019-08)The objective of this study is to contribute to the understanding of price formations in housing markets through an agent-based simulation that conceptualizes insights from behavioral economics. For this purpose, the study ... -
A fuzzy logic model for benchmarking the knowledge management performance of construction firms
(NRC Research Press, 2011)Knowledge management is rapidly becoming a key organizational capability for creating competitive advantage in the construction industry. The emergence of knowledge management in this capacity poses enormous challenges to ... -
Fuzzy logic model for the categorization of manual lighting control behaviour patterns based on daylight illuminance and interior layout
(SAGE Publications, 2019-06)In considering total building energy consumption, lighting plays an important role in shaping energy consumption and use. Although key strategies (such as energy efficient lighting products, lighting control systems and ... -
Examining occupancy and architectural aspects affecting manual lighting control behaviour in offices based on a user survey
(Znack Publishing House, 2018)Further understanding the building occupants’ needs and behaviors can reduce lighting energy consumption. This research explores how the occupancy and interior architectural aspects become effective in manual lighting ... -
Radially expandable ring-like structure with antiparallelogram loops
(Azerbaijan Technical University, 2017-09-11)As they constitute a substantial percent of deployable structures, scissor mechanisms are widely studied. This being so, new approaches to the design of scissor mechanisms still emerge. Usually design methods consider the ... -
Way-finding strategies of blind persons in urban scale
(Wiley, 2017-12)The aim of this study was to determine whether urban environments with different prominent sensory inputs have an impact on the way-finding strategies of blind people and to identify these impacts, where applicable. We ... -
An evaluation methodology proposal for building envelopes containing phase change materials: the case of a flat roof in Turkey’s climate zones
(Taylor & Francis, 2017-09)Phase change materials (PCMs) can be used to enhance the thermal energy storage capacity of a building element to improve indoor thermal comfort conditions and decrease energy usage, yet these effects need to be carefully ... -
Performance indices of soft computing models to predict the heat load of buildings in terms of architectural indicators
(Yıldız Technical University, 2017-08)This study estimates the heat load of buildings in Izmir/Turkey by three soft computing (SC) methods; Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), Fuzzy Logic (FL) and Adaptive Neuro-based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and compares ... -
The effect of spatial interventions on historic buildings' indoor climate (Case Study: Tire Necip Paşa Library, Izmir-Turkey)
(Elsevier, 2017)The indoor climate of historic libraries should meet rigorous requirements related to human thermal comfort and conservation of books, manuscripts and cultural proper-ties. Paper based collections in historic libraries can ... -
The importance of internal heat gains for building cooling design
