Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMeasurement of Cooling Load-Based Occupant Behavior in Under-Actuated Zones: A Time-Variance ApproachYaddarabullah, Yusuf Maulana Akbar, Aedah Binti Abd Rahman, Amna SaadThis research is dedicated to the enhancement of Heating, Ventilation, and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) systems through an innovative investigation of occupant behavior within under-actuated zones. These zones are strategically positioned to elevate indoor air quality and comfort through the intelligent utilization of HVAC systems. However, accurately measuring the cooling loads within these zones, which are inherently influenced by the presence of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 11 Dec 2023 · 6,158 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCooling Load Prediction in the Under-Actuated Zone with Multilayer Perceptron Artificial Neural NetworkYaddarabullah, Aedah Abd Rahman, Amna SaadThis study focuses on addressing the challenge of predicting cooling loads in under-actuated zones, where the variability in occupant behavior, environmental conditions, and electronic usage creates complex dynamics. Traditional models like Support Vector Regression (SVR) and E-Lastic-Net (ELN) often struggle to capture these non-linear relationships, leading to inefficient Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) management and increased energy consumption. To … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 27 Jan 2025 · 5,300 accessesView PDF Cite

Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsRetrofitting the Electric Lighting and Daylighting Systems to Reduce Energy Use in Buildings: A Literature ReviewMarie-Claude Dubois, Fabio Bisegna, Niko Gentile et al.This paper presents a literature review about energy-efficient retrofit of electric lighting and daylighting systems in buildings. The review, which covers around 160 research articles, addresses the following themes: (1) retrofitting electric lighting in buildings, (2) electric lighting energy use and saving potential and (3) lighting retrofit strategies. The retrofit strategies covered in the review are: replacement of lamp, ballast … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 10 Aug 2015 · 14,592 accessesView PDF Cite
