    • Evaluation of Energy Efficiency Measures in Hot and Humid Climates 
      Zhao, Y.; Erwine, B.; Leonard, P.; Pease, B.; Dole, A.; Lee, A. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2010-08)
      Hot and humid climates present some of the most complex challenges for sustainable building designs. High temperatures coupled with high humidity create extreme comfort problems and exacerbate the potential for condensation, ...
    • Green Building- Efficient Life Cycle 
      Kohns, R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2008-10)
      Energy saving does not just apply to traffic, production or agriculture. Buildings are also contributing to the climate change. The focus here is on the energy they use and on their CO2 emissions. Each year, Siemens invests ...
    • Integrating Acclimated Kinetic Envelopes into Sustainable Building Design 
      Wang, Jialiang (2014-05-28)
      The building envelope is one of the most important design parameters for determining how the indoor physical environment relates to thermal comfort, visual comfort, and even occupants’ working productivity. Thus, the ...
