Healthy Buildings and Occupants' Well-Being
Mental Health during COVID
The indoor built environment takes a toll on students' mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Transport of Coughed Particles
Many infectious diseases (e.g., COVID) are related to indoor respiratory airborne transmission.
Occupants’ Satisfaction with Buildings on Social Media
Occupants’ satisfaction with LEED- and non-LEED-certified apartments using social media data
Indoor Environment during Extreme Weather Events
Wildfire Smoke Adsorbed on Indoor Fabric
Indoor fabric surfaces (e.g., clothes, curtains) can adsorb volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in wildfire smoke penetrating indoors.
Simulation of Indoor Wildfire Smoke Level
The impact of window-opening behaviors on indoor air quality and human exposure to PM2.5 particles during wildfires
Thermal Comfort and Heat Stress
Personal Thermal Comfort using Wearable Sensors
A personal comfort model predicts an individual's thermal comfort response.
Unwanted Local Convective Cooling near Feet
The low-temperature airflow at the floor level for displacement ventilation can cause draft at the ankles and lower legs.
Room Vertical Temperature Gradient
A vertical thermally stratified environment improves air quality but also causes local thermal discomfort due to temperature gradient.
VR and AR for Future Work and Learning
AR Assisted Design for Sustainability
Future Research
Collaborative Design using Connected AR
Multi-user connected Augmented Reality (AR) provides an immersive experiences to design buildings collaboratively.
In-Car Environment and Driving Performance
Air Quality on Driving
High CO2 levels and body odor can negatively impact cognitive function of building occupants. How about drivers?
Hue and Heat Hypothesis in Driving
Interactive effects of interior ambient light and thermal environment on comfort, emotion, and driving performance
Smart Environment in Cars
