The book is composed of seven parts, comprising a total of 50 chapters written by 53 authors from various countries, mainly in the Asian region. Part I introduces vernacular houses in different Asian countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Nepal, China, Thailand and Laos. Parts II and III then explore in depth indoor adaptive thermal comfort and occupants’ adaptive behavior, focusing especially on those in hot-humid climates. Part IV presents detailed survey results on household energy consumption in various tropical Asian cities, while Part V analyses the indoor thermal conditions in both traditional houses and modern houses in these countries. Several real-world sustainable housing practices in Asian cities are reviewed in the following part. The final part then discusses the vulnerability of expanding Asian cities to climate change and urban heat island.. .Today, approximately 35-40% of global energy is consumed in Asia, and this percentage is expected to rise further. Energy consumption has increased, par | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | 关键词 | Developing countries; Sustainability; Tropics; Energy-saving; Thermal comfort; Occupants’ behaviour; Windo | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-10-8465-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-981-13-4159-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-981-10-8465-2 | copyright | Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2018 |
