Marine climate significantly influences the spatial morphology of coastal village's streets. However, research on villages lacks parameterization analysis that can cope with complex climatic environment. Focusing street in Fuzhou City, China, this paper studies relationship between space and impact extreme heat wind conditions. Thermal comfort degree average speed are main optimization objectives. By using techniques to establish a dynamic model conducting multi-objective driven by genetic algorithms, influence morphological indicators is revealed. The conclusions study indicate have more significant environment than interfaces either side street. thermal within greater indicators. This concludes proposing ranking key along their optimal intervals for adapted marine climate. indicators, listed order importance, include appropriate widths (2.3–4.3 m), eave height single-storey buildings (2.0–4.6 double-storey (5.4–7.7 depth (0.8–1.1 m brick-timber dwellings 0.3–0.6 masonry dwellings), roof slope (20–28°), entrance (0.8–1.3 balcony overhang (0.6–0.7 colonnade (1.5–2.4 orientation (NE-SW) building (3.2–5.0 m). provides an empirical reference climate-adapted village design renewal.

Published: March 30, 2025

As climate challenges intensify, architectural design must reconcile energy efficiency with environmental adaptation. This study investigates how two skywell geometries in Kunming’s traditional One-Seal dwellings (Yikeyin) optimize seasonal thermal and ventilation performance. Combining field analysis simulations, a comparative of depth-to-width ratios reveals that larger proportions enhance summer airflow but exacerbate winter heat loss, while smaller stabilize conditions. Vertical stratification highlights distinct microclimates across floors, skywells exhibiting pronounced fluctuations. The findings affirm the climate-responsive intelligence embedded vernacular architecture, demonstrating its relevance for contemporary sustainable design. By bridging wisdom modern green building practices, this work advances strategies climate-resilient architecture rural habitat enhancement, prioritizing both ecological balance human comfort.

Published: March 30, 2025

Buildings consume nearly 40% of global energy, necessitating innovative strategies to balance energy efficiency and occupant comfort. While shading ventilation are critical sustainable design, they often studied independently, leaving gaps in understanding their combined potential. This study provides a novel quantitative analysis dynamic strategies, using dataset 5000 simulations IDA Indoor Climate Energy (IDA ICE) reveal the synergies trade-offs building performance. Four distinct scenarios analyzed: minimal limited (shading factor Sf = 0.0, ACH 0.5), optimized moderate (Sf 0.5, 1.5), enhanced dynamically adjusted, 2.5), high with maximum 1.0, 3.0). The results show progressive reduction thermal discomfort, predicted percentage dissatisfied (PPD) decreasing from >80% first scenario ~25% ~15% scenario. demand increases by up highest scenario, highlighting trade-offs. These findings underscore importance integrating ventilation, providing actionable recommendations such as night cooling that can reduce discomfort improve 30%. By bridging research gaps, this advances design offers robust framework for creating energy-efficient, comfortable buildings.
