Beyond passive House: use of evolutionary algorithms in architectural design

As buildings are accountable for one-fifth of the total greenhouse gas emissions, improving their energy efficiency is foreseen as a pivotal opportunity towards climate neutrality, answering the UN call for climate action. Thus, this work intends to study to what extent the optimisation of the geometrical characteristics of building envelope can contribute to reducing their energy consumption under different climatic scenarios. The case studies have focused on three single-family houses located in different climatic zones in southern Brazil. Therefore, an evolutionary algorithm was employed in a two-step optimisation approach. First the window area and secondly the shading solutions dimensions, considering the Passive House (PH) concept requirements. The optimisation of the window areas and shading solutions dimensions together with the PH concept resulted in a reduction of energy demand between 76 and 91% and an increase in thermal comfort between 89 and 93%. Regarding window dimensions, all scenarios experienced a significant reduction of glazed areas, from 38.9 to 60.5%. As conclusion, an adequate design of shading elements and windows significantly contribute to improve indoor thermal comfort and to reduce the buildings’ energy demand, an utmost relevant factor to be considered in the early stages of project design pursuing high energy performance buildings.

Contracts for the purchase of affordable housing: concepts, legal nature and features

In Ukraine, the right of individuals – citizens to housing is constitutionally enshrined, which can be realized both by purchasing such an object of civil relations in ownership and in use. As of today, the issues of providing housing for the citizens of Ukraine have become particularly acute due to the fact that many of them lost it due to the criminal war against our state. These issues have become especially relevant due to the declaration of our state as a social state, because under such conditions, Ukraine must help its citizens to acquire rights to this category of property. For some reason, as of today, the most common basis for acquiring housing rights is the contract itself, which remains unique means of regulating legal relations in European private law.
 The concept of housing in Ukraine is provided in a number of normative legal acts of various levels of legal force, among which, of course, the Civil Code of Ukraine and the Housing Code of Ukraine that occupy a special place. Affordable housing is built and those being built with state support, residential buildings (complexes) and apartments. State support for the construction of affordable housing consists in the payment by the state of 30 percent of the cost of construction (purchase) of affordable housing and/or the provision of a preferential mortgage housing loan.
 Contracts for the purchase of this category of housing are sales contracts, that is, they belong to the group of transactions on the transfer of property into ownership. At the same time, by their legal nature, these are consensual, paid, bilateral and fixed-term (usually up to 12 months). In the case of investing in objects of unfinished construction, under certain conditions, such contracts may have a risky nature. Also, it is worth noting separately about: the specific subject composition of these contracts, the obligation to comply with the requirements regarding their form and specifics of execution.

Pembentukan "Klinik Halal" Dalam Upaya Mewujudkan Halal Industri di Indonesia 2024

The "Dosen Mengabdi di Desa" Program (Prosendi Desa) is conducted in Tegal Besar Village, Kaliwates District, Jember Regency, which has significant potential for the development of the halal industry towards Indonesia's Halal Industry 2024. The program aims to expedite halal certification for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) by implementing a packaging house concept. The program utilizes the Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach, involving the collaboration of stakeholders such as government officials, MSME owners, and the Halal Center of UIN KHAS Jember. Through information dissemination, socialization, counseling, and direct assistance, MSME owners are guided in obtaining the necessary business legality in the form of a Business Identification Number (NIB) and Halal Certificate. The solution is divided into two phases. In the first year, efforts include issuing additional NIBs, establishing a "Halal Clinic" in the village, and conducting regular socialization and publications. In the second year, a guidebook for self-declaration halal certification, assistance in registering on sihalal.com, support for field verification and document revisions, and monitoring the certification process are provided. The expected contributions are in two phases. Firstly, by increasing the number of NIBs for MSMEs, the program aims to motivate business owners and bring added value to their activities. Secondly, the establishment of the Halal Clinic aligns with agency theory, addressing human nature, organizational aspects, and information needs. The program's ultimate goal is to ensure a significant number of MSMEs in Tegal Besar Village comply with mandatory halal certification requirements by the end of 2024. This initiative will not only enhance the halal industry but also promote awareness and compliance with halal standards among MSMEs, contributing to the broader goal of Indonesia's Halal Industry in 2024.

Konsep Rancang Bangun Smart Home Base Berbasis IOT untuk Skala Perumahan

World energy demand continues to increase by 45% until 2030 based on projections of the International Energy Agency (IEA) with an average increase of 1.6% per year. About 80% of these energy needs supplied by fossil fuels. This increase occurred due to population growth, industrialization, lifestyle changes, and the use of increasingly complex technology. The household sector is one of the sectors that require energy to meet daily needs. Researchers conducted a study of research results related to rooftop Solar Power Plants, the use of thermoelectric as a producer of electrical energy, and the use of septic tanks for household gas with digesters that have been published in Indonesian-language journals and proceedings. The concept of a smart home base is implemented assuming a simple housing design, in this design than a technical calculation of the feasibility of a Smart Home Base is carried out which considers efficient methods in the development and provision of energy independently based on renewable energy for cost savings and supports government programs abaout Indonesia Ketahanan Energi 2030. Renewable energy applied to the smart home base concept utilizes Solar Power Plants which are hybrid with Thermoelectric Generators and biogas to replace of the LPG stove. Utilization of IoT-based technology to optimize energy savings at home. The housing concept is assumed with a simple housing design with a daily energy consumption of 5,507 Wh and 1,336 watts of power. The solar system used is 450 Wp for as many as 8 units of solar panels, 12 v 200 Ah battery capacity of as many as 8 units of batteries, and inverters with a power of 2000 Watts.

IoT based smart home automation using blockchain and deep learning models.

For the past few years, the concept of the smart house has gained popularity. The major challenges concerning a smart home include data security, privacy issues, authentication, secure identification, and automated decision-making of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Currently, existing home automation systems address either of these challenges, however, home automation that also involves automated decision-making systems and systematic features apart from being reliable and safe is an absolute necessity. The current study proposes a deep learning-driven smart home system that integrates a Convolutional neural network (CNN) for automated decision-making such as classifying the device as "ON" and "OFF" based on its utilization at home. Additionally, to provide a decentralized, secure, and reliable mechanism to assure the authentication and identification of the IoT devices we integrated the emerging blockchain technology into this study. The proposed system is fundamentally comprised of a variety of sensors, a 5 V relay circuit, and Raspberry Pi which operates as a server and maintains the database of each device being used. Moreover, an android application is developed which communicates with the Raspberry Pi interface using the Apache server and HTTP web interface. The practicality of the proposed system for home automation is tested and evaluated in the lab and in real-time to ensure its efficacy. The current study also assures that the technology and hardware utilized in the proposed smart house system are inexpensive, widely available, and scalable. Furthermore, the need for a more comprehensive security and privacy model to be incorporated into the design phase of smart homes is highlighted by a discussion of the risks analysis' implications including cyber threats, hardware security, and cyber attacks. The experimental results emphasize the significance of the proposed system and validate its usability in the real world.

Lanting House Preservation Based on River Culture In Sasirangan Village, Banjarmasin

The shift in time has brought about changes that clearly leave the cultural identity of the archipelago. Sasirangan Village is one of the villages located in the middle of Banjarmasin City. This village still has a strong atmosphere, especially in the diversity of architecture in the area. River culture is still visible in this village, both for daily needs and also land for housing, namely Rumah Lanting. There are 3 Lanting houses in Sasirangan Village. The lack of a number of Lanting Houses left at this time raises a concern that there is a threat of extinction from cultural heritage. In this case, it is necessary to have a study of the architectural concept of the Lanting House to determine the right steps in preserving the Lanting House. The results of this study found that the right effort to preserve the Lanting House in Sasirangan Village was a revitalization effort that did not require material replacement and developed it as a Sasirangan gallery or souvenir shop that supports local wisdom and the identity of Sasirangan Village.

The meaning of comfort and security from occupant’s perspective

Currently, the design of unfenced houses is an option that is equal to the number of people who prefer fenced houses. The preference of housing design has various qualities and environmental disturbances that have impacts on the comfort and security felt by occupants. This study aims to identify the meaning of comfort and security from occupant’s perspective against the choosing of housing concept. The research was carried out in two steps, the first step was performed qualitatively with an open-ended questionnaire. The second step of research was continued quantitatively by collecting data using an online questionnaire with close-ended questions. The results of the data collected were analyzed using factor analysis and multivariate regression analysis. The final result of the research found that the presence of a fenced or unfenced did not affect the meaning of comfort and security in the dwellings. Factors from environmental disturbances also did not affect the comfort and safety of occupants in choosing the type of housing where occupants already understand the situation that is being completely limited. This is very closely related to the pandemic situation when the research was carried out. The meaning of comfort and security is more influenced by the ability of the occupants themselves to adapt doing activities in their homes or in their territorial environment.

Pandemic and climate change revisiting the concept of healthy housing

Les enjeux environnementaux planétaires interrogent de multiples façons les modalités de l’habiter et demandent de les repenser en profondeur… Le logement est une des clés ouvrant à la gestion du changement climatique à travers à la fois l’adaptation et la mitigation. C’est aussi un espace clos, favorisant la propagation du virus selon la densité d’occupation et les caractéristiques de l’aération. Mais le regard a changé, la recherche de la protection par l’artificialisation a laissé la place à une meilleure cohabitation entre les humains, la faune et la flore en acceptant de vivre avec les aléas climatiques et en prenant en compte le risque infectieux. L’été 2022 avec son cortège de canicules et sécheresses montre l’ampleur des transformations qu’il faudrait opérer en ville pour générer de nouvelles formes d’habitat favorables à la santé. En effet, il est indispensable de s’adapter à un nouveau contexte environnemental qui devient de jour en jour plus menaçant et se déploie à toutes les échelles. La prise en compte du bien-être individuel trop inégalement partagé tout en s’assurant d’un bon fonctionnement collectif, est essentielle.

IoT human needs inside compact house

Indonesia is entering Industry 4.0, but is still not using supportive technology, especially in residential areas. A compact house is one of the dwellings built on limited modern land, providing flexible use of space according to the activities carried out by residents. The current version of this type of residence, namely smart homes, is still far from what is expected. There is a need for the modern use of IoT in every room, which can adapt to the activities of residents to make it easier for residents to move. A grounded theory and descriptive approach was used to find the continuity of modern Industry 4.0 and IoT technology in smart homes with the compact house concept to find the novelty of design standards. The findings are in the form of lighting that can be adjusted via IoT to reduce the crime rates in abandoned homes or in homes that are not active because the residents are traveling.

Megastructure as a New Urban Paradigm

In this research I would like to compare Berlin's Hauptbahnhof to other megastructures in order to understand their relationship to modern urbanism. Megastructuralism can be explained in three different steps showing its self-evolution from the utopian housing concepts of the 1930´s to the megastations of the 21st century. First step: megastructure as a residential project. The beginning of the Megastructure era was related to the residential housing project located along a highway from the modernist movement’s “Fort l'Empereur project” (Le Corbusier, 1931) or Archigram's proposal link to the new urban forms in a technological period known as "Lower Manhattan Expressway” (Paul Rudolph, 1970). Second step: megastructure as institutional project. The use of large structures found its place in cultural spaces such as “Centre Pompidou” (Piano, Rogers and Franchini, 1970) and in workplaces of the post-industrial city described by Koolhaas in “Delirious New York". Third step: megastructure as mobility, ecology and technology project. The modern society of the 21st century has a never before seen demand for mobility. Today’s cities become more and more machines of transportation. The combination of computer technology and the challenges of the 21th century, produce a new kind of megastructuralism. Berlin’s public transportation system is one of the Europa’s biggest train stations: “Hauptbahnhof”. In this research it will show that Hauptbahnhof station must be seen as a new kind of megastructure. In the future, cities will become more and more crowded; hence space will have to be used more efficiently. Hauptbahnhof shows how space can be used most efficiently if buildings grow into megastructures that accommodate every possible function. The station is therefore a vast source for models of densification that could lead to a sustainable urbanism in the future.

Opera House as a Category of Ukrainian Operology

The aim of the article is to develop the explication of an opera house as a category of Ukrainian operology. The research methodology is based on the combination of historical, theoretical, and performance musicology, in particular systemic and terminological approaches. The author has also applied the historical-genetic and comparative methods, principles of the communication theory, and the principle of historical synchronisation. Scientific novelty of the research. The author has systematised the analysed content levels and essential categories; introduced a developed terminological system into the concept interpretation; specificated valued scales and interpretations relevant to the concept’s content levels. As a result, the author has suggested a topical scientific paradigm of interpreting the category of an opera house. The mechanism of making the terminology system of the opera house concept has been defined, which includes the detailed description of its content, specification of local terms and definitions that correlate with it. These terms include the world opera house, the continental opera house, and the national opera house. Moreover, the author has justified the necessity of introducing into the modern Ukrainian operology such terms as the authorial opera house and corporate impresario. The former term implies the interpretation of the opera house concept as «summa summarum» of opera projects (both realised and not yet finished; artistic and scientific-critical), a combination of artistic search and regularities of creative thinking, manifestation of opera poetics and esthetics as the legacy of each specific composer. The latter term specifies the opera house concept as a formation that tackles a number of creative and organisational problems, searching for an effective way of managing the crisis, preparing the opera-theatrical enterprise and professional tours. Conclusions. The article presents a system of interpretations and functions of the «opera house» category within the Ukrainian operology, develops a comprehensive terminology system, and suggests a scientific paradigm of interpreting the category of the opera house. The author also distinguishes five levels of interpreting the «opera house» category that can be observed in the Ukrainian operology: as a category of historical musicology of both continental and worldwide scale, as an authorial phenomenon, namely the authorial opera house, as a architectonic structure that defines the poetics of the «opera city», and as a managerial system created to solve organisational problems and favour successful realisation of the opera performance. It has been established that its content-functional duality as a generic feature distinguishes the opera house category. The opera house appears to be a field for distinguishing international, temporal, topographic forms of dialogue that stipulates for the topicality of a specific interpretation of the opera work at the level of stage and verbal language (implication) in the process of its staging in other national and continental conditions in accordance with the national traditions.
 Key words: opera house, authorial opera house, national opera house, operology, corporate impresario.

EXPLORATION OF SPATIAL ARRANGEMENT CHANGES AS A FORM OF SPATIAL SUSTAINABILITY IN DWELLING. Case Study : Kilungan House in Kudus Old City, Indonesia

Space is an architectural form that is used to accommodate activities with certain functions. In a space contained activities carried out by humans and functions that represent these activities. Sometimes during this period the space undergoes changes in activity and function. Space can undergo physical and non-physical changes to respond to changes in these activities and functions. Kilungan is a local term used to refer to the tall massive fence in the Old City of Kudus. The massive fence, known as the kilungan, was built with one of the goals to provide a sense of security. Inside the kilungan house, there are at least 2 main building masses, namely the main house and the supporting buildings. The spaces in the kilungan house which have been inhabited for more than 100 years have also undergone changes in response to the spatial sustainability of the dwelling. The purpose of this study is to explore, describe, and get the meaning of changes in space in the kilungan house. This study uses an inductive qualitative method. The initial stage is to make observations to get the distribution of the kilungan house. The research area is limited to the Old City of Kudus, Indonesia. The core stage of the research is data collection and analysis carried out simultaneously inductively. Exploration is carried out on cases to obtain findings in accordance with research objectives. The results of this study were found changes in spatial arrangement in the kilungan house in the form of: (1) changes in function without changing the physical form of space, found in spaces that accommodate different activities but have the same activity pattern; (2) changing the function of changing the spatial arrangement without changing the mass of the building; (3) changes in spatial arrangement change the physical building; (4) shifting activity changes zoning (5) Determining the direction of change does not change the orientation of the building in the circle. ; (6) Spatial sustainability in residential areas is indicated by changes in activities, functions, spatial arrangement but does not change the core things which are the concept of the kilungan house. Spatial sustainability can be found in the adaptations made by building users to new functions in the spaces in the dwelling.

SATELLITE CITY DILEMMA IN POST-COLONIAL MOROCCO: A STUDY OF TAMESNA TOWN, A BIG EMPTY RESIDENCE OR A FAILED URBAN SETTLEMENT?

Launched in 2004, Tamesna is part of ‘New Cities / Cities Without Slums Program’. The first satellite city was established to provide affordable housing to low-income residents, and a site for the resettlement of slum residents from urban Rabat, the capital of Morocco. Currently, Tamesna City is far away from meeting the criteria of a satellite city. As a result, the social housing settlement / satellite city of Tamesna as a ‘hope city – space of exceptions and expectations’ in the beginning has become a dormitory – ghost town, a city with no signs of life. This article’s objective is describing the satellite town of Tamesna case in terms of contemporary satellite city and social housing concepts as governmental ‘reterritorialization’ implementations in post-colonial Morocco. Contextually, this article aims to contribute equally to the understanding of the governmental policy implications including international (incomplete) investments (as post-colonial imperialism) to discuss the reasons behind the ‘New Cities’ social housing & satellite city policies including removing the poor from the city to a designed – designated ‘nowhere’ by creating ‘useful / useless’ Morocco once again after colonial time period in the country. The methodology of the paper is based on literature reviews, research on documents obtained from the governmental archive, observations, and interviews with stakeholders, designers, planners and inhabitants.

Analysis of Mass Housing and Social Housing Production in the Context of Globalization: Examples from Around the World And Turkey

Sanayileşme, hızlı kentleşme, nüfus artışı, dünya savaşları ve çatışmalar sonrasında gerçekleşen zorunlu göçler gibi sebepler sonucunda toplumlardaki alt gelir gruplarının konut ihtiyaçlarını karşılayamaması, devletlerin toplu konut ve sosyal konutları içeren kitlesel konut üretimini hayata geçirmesine neden olmuştur. Bu çalışmanın amacı, 2000 yılından sonra dünyada ve Türkiye’de düşük maliyet ile inşa edilen toplu ve sosyal konutlarda merkezi ve yerel politikalar doğrultusunda küreselleşmenin etkilerini irdelemektir. Çalışma kapsamında, 2000 yılından sonra farklı ülkelerde inşa edilmiş 20 toplu konut ve sosyal konut projesi çeşitli kriterler (tasarım firması, bütçe ve yatırımcı, konut özellikleri, sosyal ve kamusal alanlar, yerleşim şeması) üzerinden incelenmiştir. İncelenen projelerde, dünyada ve Türkiye’de uygulanan toplu ve sosyal konut projelerinin tasarım, planlama ve uygulama aşamalarında benzerlikler ve farklılıklar barındırdığı görülmüş, belirli ortak özelliklere göre seçilen projeler arasında karşılaştırmalı analiz yapılmıştır. Analizden elde edilen bulgulara göre, tüm dünyada benzer şekilde üretilmiş standart konutlar yerine, yerel iklim ve malzemeyi, çevre değerlerini, kullanıcıların ihtiyaçlarını dikkate alan, farklı konut tipleri, kişisel ve ortak etkinlik alanları ve sosyal alanlar sunan konutların üretilmesi uzun vadede etkili ve verimli olabilmektedir. Çalışma, farklı ülkelerde alt ve orta gelir grubu için uygulanmakta olan toplu ve sosyal konutların incelenmesi ve karşılaştırılması, etkili ve sürdürülebilir konut ve çevresi üretimine dair çıkarımlarda bulunması bakımından önem arz etmektedir. Gelecek çalışmalar için ülkelerin yerel politikaları, ekonomileri, kültürel ve sosyal özelliklerine karşılık gelecek toplu ve sosyal konut fikirleri geliştirilmesi önerilmektedir.

The Housing Problem and the Role of the Private Sector in Addressing it During the Years (2009-2018)

This study is trying to investigate the housing problem and the role of the private sector in its solution in Sulaimani during the years (2018-2009), the study, despite a theoretical analysis of the concept of housing and characteristics, based on the most important factors. He explained in Sulaimani, The researcher used a survey form to determine the degree of private sector participation in solving the housing problem. In this survey, 1000 forms were distributed after distribution, 915 forms were filled out correctly and the answers of the participants were analyzed from an economic and statistical point of view. The results of the study are consistent with the hypothesis of the study. The study explains the most important reasons for the housing problem in Sulaimani, which include a large number of Syrian and Iranian refugees and displaced persons from other Iraqi cities in Sulaimani, as well as misuse of land distributed by the municipality, despite increased demand due to increase marriages. The researcher concluded that the private sector has a weak role in solving the housing problem, the amount of housing supply is less than the amount of demand. The housing units produced by the private sector are expensive, and the housing units are not completed on time, which has exacerbated the housing problem

조선 시대 기록을 통해서 본 판옥의 정의에 관한 연구 - 한국고전종합DB의 판옥(板屋) 관련 기록을 중심으로 -

Recognizing the problem that the definition of the term pan-ock does not appear precisely in the dictionary, the definition of pan-ock was established through analysis by analyzing 183 cases of pan-ock searched in the Korean Classics DB and classifying them into buildings and ships. First of all, the 65 pan-ocks classified as architecture were used in various ways, such as residences, religious facilities, jang-pan-ocks, and prisons, depending on their use. Second, the 90 cases of pan-ock related to ships were the concept of houses that combine work and accommodation on ships. Finally, through military installations, literary expressions, and bureaucrats who have seen trains and wagons, Pan-ock uses boards. It can be used for walls or roofs only, or for both walls and roofs. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the case of the Joseon Dynasty with the definition of Pan-ock in the existing dictionary. In other words, Pan-ock refers to “houses, religious facilities, royal tombs, and prisons, with various uses and forms. In addition, it refers to the joining of only the wall or the roof with planks, or the joining of both the wall and the roof,” suggesting a broader interpretation of the category.

COMMODIFICATION OF RELIGION IN HOUSING

Indonesian society is pluralistic—many different ethnicities, cultures, and religions. One of the things that are currently booming is related to religious issues. The religion in question is Islam because the Indonesian people are the majority of the Muslim community. With the Muslim majority community, this is the field of business oriented capitalists. This capitalist tries to marry all business activities with the Islamic religion, called the commodification of religion. This study aims to describe the commodification of religion in terms of property, namely sharia housing. This research uses a Qualitative method. The Result Basically, the concept of sharia housing marries the idea of conventional housing that has existed before with the concept of religion to form a new lifestyle and identity among urban communities; marketing strategies with the gathering concept are various ways that developers use using religious symbols to sell their products. The use of religious symbols in the sale of sharia housing is considered a form of religious commodification.
