Introduction -- Sustainable Schools: Their Passive Systems to Provide Comfort With Natural Means as an Educational Example for Pupils and Their Parents -- Climate- Sensitive Architecture: Is Natural Comfort Possible? -- The Role of Shading, Natural Ventilation, Daylighting, and Comfort in Enhancing Indoor Environmental Quality and Liveability in the Age of Covid-19 -- Energy Retrofit of Traditional Buildings in a Warm, Humid Urban Climate -- Efficiency and Control in the Domestic Environment: A Case Study -- Providing Thermal Comfort for Building Inhabitants Through Natural Cooling and Ventilation Systems: Wind Towers -- Comfort: Climate Potential of Ventilative Cooling -- Enhancing the Microclimate Towards Outdoor Thermal Comfort in Urban Isles of the Mediterranean Region -- Diachronic Analysis of Daylight Design and Management Techniques in the Mediterranean Region -- Passive Solar Design: The Influence of Building Geometry and Orientation on Solar Performance of Mosque in the Tropics -- Comfort and Wellbeing in Buildings: The Smart Behaviour of End Users -- Adoptable and Sustainability for Visual and Perceptive Comfort: Neuroscience and Architecture -- Solar Shading and Building Thermal Comfort: Design Parameters of External Shading Device in Humid-Moderate Climates -- Living Bricks Can Generate Energy in the Home and Wean Humanity Off Fossil Fuels -- Keeping Cool Under the Hot Arewa Sun: Natural Cooling Systems in Traditional Hausa Buildings in Nigeria -- Is Still - "Ornament" - a "Crime"? -- Design Elements of Building Comfort in Arid Zone of Arabian Countries - The Significance Role of Orientation and Courtyard -- High Comfort - Low Impact: Integration of Thermal Mass in Pursuit of Designing Sustainable Buildings -- Visual Comfort in UAE Heritage Buildings Converted Into Museums.

Achieving Building Comfort by Natural Means explores examples of green building designs and methods that are currently being used around the world to achieve human comfort in buildings. The operation of buildings accounts for more than 40% of total energy use and is a major source of carbon emissions. It is imperative that this consumption be substantially decreased and that energy needed for building comfort is obtained from renewable and environmentally friendly sources. This book brings together a global group of contributors who look at factors such as location, climate, building materials, energy management, ventilation, thermal environmental conditions, shading, lighting, acoustics, and more that are critical for achieving buildings that are more sustainable. Highlights methods of achieving building comfort through green design; Examines the impact of excessive electricity and fossil fuel-based energy use during a building's lifecycle; Includes contributions and case studies from varied geographical regions.
