Free Download Data-driven Analytics for Sustainable Buildings and Cities: From Theory to Application by Xingxing Zhang
English | EPUB | 2021 | 446 Pages | ISBN : 9811627770 | 121.5 MB
This book explores the interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary fields of energy systems, occupant behavior, thermal comfort, air quality and economic modelling across levels of building, communities and cities, through various data analytical approaches. It highlights the complex interplay of heating/cooling, ventilation and power systems in different processes, such as design, renovation and operation, for buildings, communities and cities. Methods from classical statistics, machine learning and artificial intelligence are applied into analyses for different building/urban components and systems.

Free Download Future Urban Energy System for Buildings: The Pathway Towards Flexibility, Resilience and Optimization by Xingxing Zhang, Pei Huang, Yongjun Sun
English | EPUB (True) | 2023 | 485 Pages | ISBN : 9819912210 | 151.8 MB
This book investigates three main characteristics of future urban energy system for buildings, including flexibility, resilience and optimization. It explores the energy flexibility by considering renewable energy integration with buildings, sector coupling, and energy trading in the local energy market. Energy resilience is addressed from aspects of future climate change, pandemic crisis, and operational uncertainties. Approaches for system design, dynamic pricing and advanced control are discussed for the optimization of urban energy system. Knowledge from this book contributes to the effective means in future urban energy paradigm to closely integrate multiple energy systems (i.e., distribution, mobility, production and storage) with different energy carriers (i.e., heat, electricity) in an optimal manner for energy use. It would facilitate the envision of next-generation urban energy systems, towards sustainability, resilience and prosperity.
