Due to population growth, cities have expanded their urban areas, causing increased temperatures and vegetative scarcity. Therefore, studies been carried out on the heat island phenomenon, its effect people’s thermal stress, how mitigate this problem. This research aims evaluate application of biomimetic strategies for improving exterior environmental conditions an scale under a tropical climat...

Urbanization causes major changes in environmental systems, including those related with radiation balances and other meteorological conditions because of surfaces the physical environment. In addition, cities generate specific microclimates as a consequence diverse within urban fabric. Industrial parks represent vast areas, often neglected, contributing to degradation environment, poor thermal...

Outdoor comfort is gaining attention in the design of our cities to face current context rising temperatures. Although simulation required inform early stage projects considering outdoor space and strategies improve their thermal performance, different tool options must be compared through monitoring determine accuracy modeling. This study analyses benefits installation a shading device courtya...

O impacto do ambiente construído ocasiona mudanças no microclima e pode contribuir para a formação das ilhas de calor urbanas (ICU). uso estratégias bioclimáticas mitigação dos efeitos causados pelas ICU é essencial planejamento urbano. Nesse contexto, as áreas verdes contribuem melhoria clima da qualidade vida. presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar importância vegetação o conforto térmico...

The European goals to reduce CO2 emissions by up 40% 2030 and reach carbon neutrality 2050 cannot ignore the building sector, that accounts for 27% of global greenhouse gas emissions. In context sustainable development goals, it is a key point consider reduction heat island effect in urban environment. Considering this background proven absence clear promotion mitigation measures, research aims...

Recent statistical reports highlight an accelerating phenomenon of radical urbanization, and the forecasts estimate that within next ten years, about 70% world’s population will be located in urban areas, compared with 54% currently living there. This result increase constructed volume, foreseeable adverse effects on climate, environment, residents’ health. The resulting growth emissions use en...

Urban Heat Islands (UHIs) are expanding in anthropized areas, causing serious climatic consequences such as rising temperatures and citizens' discomfort. Several studies have identified confirmed how the use of cool road pavements can mitigate reduce negative effects UHIs. This study performs a microclimate simulation San Pietro Vincula Square Rome through ENVI-Met software by replacing current...
