Historical Perspective of Buildings in Hot and Humid Regions -- Urban Heat Island Mitigation Considering the Impact of Anthropogenic Heat -- Design Criteria for Buildings in Hot and Humid Climates -- Building Facade Voids Design Optimization, Facade Voids Position and Ratios - Wind Condition Relation -- Energy Efficiency and Conservation Consideration for the Design of Buildings for Hot and Humid Regions -- Tradition-Modernity in Building Design: Tectonics and Performance of the Gulf Architecture -- Study of the Aerodynamics Characteristics in a Residential Building armed with a Patio System -- Advances in Wind Tunnel and CFD Analysis for Building Design in Hot-Humid Climates -- Utilization of Natural Ventilation for Hot and Humid Singapore -- Application of Alternative Energy and New Building Technologies for Detached House in Tropical Climate -- Ventilation and Air-Conditioning Technologies in Hot and Humid Climates.

This book presents an in-depth analysis covering climatic and weather conditions, house and building development history, construction methods and technologies, and environmental conditions. It provides relevant house and building information and highlights recent advances in hot and humid regions, as well as developments in other regions that are relevant to hot and humid climates. The countries in hot and humid regions, which include the tropical countries, the Middle Eastern countries around the Mediterranean, and many countries of Central Asia and Africa, are home to some of the most challenging conditions in the world in terms of house and building design and construction, and in terms of maintaining indoor thermal comfort and air quality in an energy-efficient way. The book's respective chapters, prepared by expert contributors, cover essential concepts, designs, and construction methodologies for houses and commercial buildings. As such, the book offers a valuable resource for undergraduate and graduate students in architecture and engineering, house and building designers, and building sciences researchers. Building contractors, manufacturers and distributors of building equipment and devices, and government policymakers and legislators will also benefit from the information provided in this book.
