“…Apart from these standpoints, a handful of authors researched the notion of thermal conduction. Throughout this research, we will focus on the following concepts of the design development process: material science, the importance of material research [7], the relation between thermal aspects, and solar energy storage [8], energy and smart city initiatives [9], local climate and residential design [10], thermal comfort in buildings [11], and the climate and the city [12]. Besides the importance of materiality in the architectural design process outlined above, it is also, important to note that the issue of heat flow is part of national and international standards.…”

During the architectural design process, it is particularly important to emphasize the aspect of the heat flow in buildings. Therefore, by raising the question of the heat flow in buildings, we perform an in-depth examination of the following parameters: climate conditions, material characteristics, and thermal conduction. For the most part, the research will focus on examining the thermal conductivity, and materiality applied in buildings throughout the design process. In other words, this study will demonstrate several key points: (a) analyze the proposed methodology, and challenges within the architectural design process based on the climate context; (b) associate each of the stages with diverse parameters; (c) represent three separate structures situated in different climate zones and, (d) finally, the driving factors affecting the architectural design development process. The research is primarily driven by the idea of bringing together two aspects: the sustainable treatment of the buildings and environmental awareness in architecture. Finally, this study merges two approaches within the design development process: technical and environmental. Therefore, the main focus of this study is placed on the technical and technological aspects of the detail in architecture. Based on these two approaches, three architectural design proposals are demonstrated.

“…Generally, the application of renewable energies without using fossil fuels is called zero carbon emission building (Kaygusuz, 2007). Moreover, to lessen the energy consumption the residential apartments can be decorated in a north-south oriented configuration, but if it is not possible then the solar chimney will be a good alternative (Rahbarianyazd & Raswol, 2018). It also needs to keep in mind that, buildings need to be environmentally friendly, technically attractive and possibly cost effective (Rezaie et al, 2011).…”

Recently the effect of greenhouse gases (GHGs) is worldwide terrified anxiety to the public and scholars. Even this global problem is one of the great issues that continuously makes worrying the governments and environmentalists, but its solution findings are not out of the image at all. In this study, we have proposed and analysed a mathematical model for the solvable management of GHGs by sowing the seeds of green building dynamic systems. Moreover, in the model, the human community is used to enhance the production power of individuals of green buildings by absorbing the GHGs. The model is analysed by stability analysis at the equilibrium points: trivial and global equilibrium, and also by convincing the stability and instability of the system of equations. The behaviour of the propound model has been developed by numerical simulations which shows the rate of the fruitfulness of GHG components.

“…Passive solar heating system, natural cooling techniques and systems for natural lighting are three categorizes of passive solar systems to create comfortable indoor temperature, and optimize energy consumption. Besides, the domestic sectors are using more than 45 percent of the total energy demand thus applying passive solar energy strategy in design can decrease energy consumption, and cost of energy as well [2,3,4]. The research is defined various strategies can be applied to enhance passive solar housing design in order to improve the quality of housing in respect of the future generation requirements of energy.…”

The significant aim of architecture is to support different human needs especially housing as an essential requirement; as well as the consideration of environmental factors. One of the environmental issues is the consideration of climatic conditions that have a deep influence on designing to create comfortable indoor spaces and housing durability. Based on climate conditions, passive solar energy as primary factor decreases energy consumption inexpensively. Furthermore, it is undeniable that socio-cultural structure of the society has deep influence on designing houses. The purpose of this study is to investigate how to improve housing quality for achieving low-cost energy by use of endless energies as a potential point in Famagusta with Mediterranean climate. Moreover, the second part of paper is the considered strategies in different period of Cypriot dwelling, as an important strategy in comparison evaluation.
