A knowledge-based space planning system
(Taylor & Francis, 1992)Knowledge-based systems are potentially powerful tools for improving the results of automated or interactive design procedures. Expert Space Planner is a prototype of such a system that uses production rules in the spatial ... -
A proposal for 'correction values' for winter outdoor design temperatures
(Elsevier, 1996)This study aims to find a correlation between winter outdoor design temperature (WDT) and mass of the building envelope. The daily variations of the inside surface temperatures and heal fluxes of the walls under various ... -
