Switching daylight: Performance prediction of climate adaptive ETFE foil façades (2021)
Journal Article
Flor, J. F., Liu, X., Sun, Y., Beccarelli, P., Chilton, J., & Wu, Y. (2022). Switching daylight: Performance prediction of climate adaptive ETFE foil façades. Building and Environment, 209, Article 108650. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2021.108650

This paper reports on the daylighting performance of switchable ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) foil in double-skin façades (DSF). In contrast to conventional glazing or static ETFE façades, switchable ETFE moderates incident daylight and control...

Retrofitting office buildings: Enhancing daylighting performance with switchable ETFE double-skin façades (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Flor, J., Sun, Y., Beccarelli, P., Wu, Y., & Chilton, J. (2021). Retrofitting office buildings: Enhancing daylighting performance with switchable ETFE double-skin façades. . https://doi.org/10.23967/membranes.2021.017

This paper addresses the natural daylighting qualities of spaces enclosed by ETFE multi-layer foil constructions with switchable features. The study focuses on the effects the adaptive shading mechanism has on the internal space in terms of useful...

Switching transformation for soft pneumatic adaptive shading (2021)
Conference Proceeding
Aditra, R., Beccarelli, P., & Jimenez-Bescos, C. (2021). Switching transformation for soft pneumatic adaptive shading. . https://doi.org/10.23967/membranes.2021.020

Soft pneumatic adaptive system could be categorized based on transformation occurred. One type of transformation that was rarely discussed is the switching transformation. It was only found in switchable fritted layer cushion structure. To keep the... Read More about Switching transformation for soft pneumatic adaptive shading.

Neighbourhood permeability and burglary: a case study of a city in China (2021)
Journal Article
Wang, Z., Lu, J., Beccarelli, P., & Yang, C. (2021). Neighbourhood permeability and burglary: a case study of a city in China. Intelligent Buildings International, https://doi.org/10.1080/17508975.2021.1904202

Much research from different fields has explored the crime-space relationship for different crime types with various study units. However, empirical studies in the diverse urban environments get conflict results that support the two contrary planning...
