Taking into account these data, indoor residential environments have a direct influence on human health. In addition to this, in developing countries, significant levels of indoor pollution make housing unsafe, with a detrimental impact on the health of inhabitants. Housing is therefore a key health factor for people all over the world, and various parameters such as air quality, ventilation, hygrothermal comfort, lighting, physical environment, and building efficiency, among others, can contribute to healthy architecture, and the conditions that can result from the poor application of these parameters.Technology: general issuesbicsscvernacular architecturesustainabilityenergy efficiencyhistorystatisticssocietyacousticsenvironmental qualitylearning spaceoccupant comfortsustainable architecturesustainable buildingvisual comfortthermal comfortventilation comfortVOCspolymer-based itemsindoor air qualitytest emission chamberexposure scenarionatural lightingartificial lightingindoor lighting designchronodisruptioncircadian rhythmsdaylightingsustainable lighting designLED luminairesindoor environment qualityclassroom lightingsustainable developmentdesalinationreverse osmosisrenewable energiesenvironmental impactsdecision support systemstypes of contractin-vehicle air qualitypollution modelthermal environmentsolar radiationVOCs exposureCFDenvironmental healthbuilding energy simulationwater flow glazingexperimental validationschoolsheat perceptionuser’s perceptionqualitative techniquePOEweather file managementweather datasetsweather stationssensitivity analysis of weather parametersthermal zone temperaturebuilding energy managementunitized facadeWater Flow Glazingmean radiant temperaturefinal energy consumptionArtificial Neural Network (ANN)Global Data Assimilation System (GDAS)Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP)photovoltaic powerweather datafacility managementconstruction materials“smelly buildings”BelgradeSerbiaMexicoenergy simulationbuilding energy modelOpen StudioSGSAVENOM-020-ENER-2011climate zoningtraditional construction systemssocial housingverification methodclimate changeglobal warmingcarbon footprintGHG emissionsclimate emergencyhydrogenPEM fuel cellscogenerationbuilding sustainabilityenergy savinghygrothermal comfortindoor greenvertical greenerycost-benefit-ratiosick leaveabsenteeismalternative quantification methodTechnology: general issuesGonzález Lezcano Roberto Alonsoedt1319356González Lezcano Roberto AlonsoothBOOK9910557604503321Sustainable Building and Indoor Air Quality3033817UNINA
