Article Citation - Scopus: 2Indoor Air Co2 Concentrations and Ventilation Rates in Two Residences in İzmir, Turkey(Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2022) Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; Uçaryılmaz, Sedef; Çataroğlu, Ilgın; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil; 03.07. Department of Environmental Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyHouses are the places where people spend most of their time. That is why indoor air quality at home is essential for public health. Sufficient ventilation is the factor to avoid accumulation of pollutants in indoor air, which include microorganisms, such as SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, adequate ventilation is needed to provide good indoor air quality for human health and reduce infection risk at home. There are no reports of residential ventilation rates in Turkey. In this study, CO2 concentrations were measured in two residences in Izmir, Turkey. Three experiments were conducted to determine background concentrations and the rate of natural ventilation with infiltration and opening windows. Results show that air exchange provided by infiltration is low for both case rooms, while adequate ventilation could be achieved with natural ventilation under the studied conditions. Infiltration provided air exchange and ventilation rates of 0.18 h-1 and 5.9 m3/h for Case 1 and 0.29 h-1 and 8.23 m3/h for Case 2, respectively. Air exchange and ventilation rates were increased to 2.36 h-1 and 76.9 m3/h for Case 1 and 1.2 h-1 and 34 m3/h for Case 2, respectively, by opening the windows. Although ventilation can be provided by opening the windows, the other factors that determine its rate, e.g., meteorological variables, cannot be controlled by the occupants. Consequently, people cannot ensure the good indoor air quality in bedrooms and sufficient reduction in transmission of pathogenic microorganisms; therefore, risk of spreading diseases such as COVID-19 at home.Article Citation - WoS: 1Children in Urban Environments: a Case Study From a Dense Neighbourhood in Izmir-Turkey(Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2022) Dikmen Güleryüz, Oylum; Doğan, Fehmi; Doğan, Fehmi; Kasalı, Altuğ; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe aim of this study is to understand children's engagement with their urban outdoor environments in Izmir-Turkey, a city with a high urbanisation rate, and to explore the factors that affect their outdoor preferences outside of their school time. The study consists of a field study conducted in a densely populated middle-income neighbourhood. Participants are fourth-grade children from a state-run primary school aged 9-11 years (n=44) and their parents (n=40). The study followed a multi-methodological approach, employing questionnaires, drawing and story writing tasks as data collection methods. Results of the study showed the strong tendency to prefer outdoors during their free time even when their neighbourhood is a high-density urban settlement with limited opportunities for outdoor activities. In the studied neighbourhood, most of the participants mentioned the schoolyard over other locations as their preferred place fin- outdoor play. Other than the schoolyard, the children mainly reported familiar places in their neighbourhoods, close to their local environments which were also depicted in their drawings and described in their stories. From the perspectives of urban designers and policy-makers, the findings of the study highlight aspects to be concerned about opportunities for outdoor play in high-density and urbanised central neighbourhoods.Article Citation - WoS: 2Cephe Yönlenmesinin Tarihi Konutların Enerji Kullanımına Etkileri: Güneybatı Anadolu’da Dış Sofalı Konutlar(Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2022) Timur, Barış Ali; Başaran, Tahsin; İpekoğlu, Başak; Timur, Barış Ali; Başaran, Tahsin; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 02.01. Department of Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Heritage; 02. Faculty of ArchitectureCephe yönlenme durumu, yapıların enerji kullanım miktarlarını etkileyen önemli bir tasarım parametresi olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu parametre özellikle yeni yapı tasarımı alanında, yönlenme optimizasyon kararları geliştirmek üzere birçok araştırmada incelenmiştir. Buna karşılık, tarihi yapıların yönlenmesi ve enerji kullanım miktarları arasındaki ilişkiyi irdeleyen çalışmalar sınırlıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Anadolu coğrafyasında yaygın bir tarihi yapı türü olan dış sofalı konutların Muğla kenti örnek yerleşmesindeki hâkim yönlenme durumları ile enerji kullanım düzeyleri arasında belirgin bir ilişki olup olmadığının araştırılmasıdır. Araştırma yöntemi, DesignBuilder v.5.4.0.21 yazılımında gerçekleştirilmiş olan yapı ısıl modellemesi ve simülasyonudur. Çalışmada, örnek bir tarihi konutun mimari özellikleri kullanılarak oluşturulmuş sanal bir yapı modelinin sofa yönlenme durumu, ana ve ara yönlere göre değiştirilerek ısıl simülasyonları gerçekleştirilmiş ve simülasyonlar sonucu hesaplanan ısıtma ve soğutma enerji ihtiyaçları karşılaştırılmıştır. Simülasyonlar, karşılaştırmalı olarak önce yapı çevresindeki kütle ve peyzaj elemanlarıyla sonra bu elemanlar olmadan iki sonuç seti için gerçekleştirilmiştir. Simülasyonlar sonucunda, örnek yapı türü için en iyi ve en verimsiz yönlenme durumları arasında enerji kullanımı açısından hesaplanan oransal farkın %1,3 ile %2,2 arasında olduğu saptanmıştır. Bu sonuca göre, örnek yapı türü enerji kullanım durumunun çok yüksek oranda yönlenmeden bağımsız olduğu, bu nedenle de örnek yerleşmedeki dış sofalı konutlar için hâkim yönlenme tercihi ile yapı enerji kullanım düzeyleri arasında dikkate değer bir ilişki olmadığı belirlenmiştir.Article Citation - WoS: 7İşlev değişikliğinin tarihi yapılar üzerine etkileri “Alsancak Levanten Evleri örneği”(Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2015) Gazi Gezgin, Aylin; Boduroğlu, Elvin; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologySocial change brings with it new human needs and activities, and in every era humans create and recreate spaces, and hence structures, according to these needs and activities. This means that structures, and their parts, need to undergo change in terms of space and function to adapt to different functionalities and conditions. One understanding of preservation is based on the idea that with a change in function, historical structures which have outlived their original purpose are given new life and once again are made part of the urban landscape. Instances of functional change are most often seen in monumental and historical industrial structures, and in the examples of civil architecture remaining in areas set aside for housing settlements as a result of rapid urbanization. It is important, however, that any functional change made to a historical structure serves to protect the architectural value, meaning and memory of the structure. Alsancak is home to a large number of historical Levantine houses, many of which, following rapid urbanization in the 1970s, have had to change their function to that of bar or cafe. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the re-functioning on these houses in Alsancak, and to make some recommendations on both the processes involved in re-functioning, and on the current legal regulations governing these processes with a view to ameliorating the negative effects of re-functioning on such structures.Article Citation - WoS: 1Hafıza Kutusu: Bir Kentsel Kolektif Bellek Deneyi(mi)(Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2017) Doğu, Tuba; Varkal Deligöz, Melis; 01.

Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThis paper aims to develop deployable doubly ruled hyperboloid surfaces that can be used in architectural applications. First, the study systematically analyzes the geometric principles of hyperboloids generated by the ruled surface generation method and examines the morphology to generate different types of hyperboloids. Then, a method is introduced to construct deployable doubly ruled hyperboloid surfaces. The study demonstrates that deployment behavior of the hyperboloid is directly related to joint types used at the intersection points of the bars. Based on kinematic analysis, the study establishes that deployable hyperboloids with a single degree of freedom can be constructed only by revolute and spherical joints. Finally, various hyperboloids having different number of intersections are constructed according to the proposed joint types and their deployment capabilities are discussed.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8Performance Indices of Soft Computing Models To Predict the Heat Load of Buildings in Terms of Architectural Indicators(Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2017) Turhan, Cihan; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden; Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; Turhan, Cihan; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 03.10. Department of Mechanical Engineering; 03.06. Department of Energy Systems Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 02. Faculty of ArchitectureThis study estimates the heat load of buildings in Izmir/Turkey by three soft computing (SC) methods; Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), Fuzzy Logic (FL) and Adaptive Neuro-based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and compares their prediction indices. Obtaining knowledge about what the heat load of buildings would be in architectural design stage is necessary to forecast the building performance and take precautions against any possible failure. The best accuracy and prediction power of novel soft computing techniques would assist the practical way of this process. For this purpose, four inputs, namely, wall overall heat transfer coefficient, building area/ volume ratio, total external surface area and total window area/total external surface area ratio were employed in each model of this study. The predicted heat load is evaluated comparatively using simulation outputs. The ANN model estimated the heat load of the case apartments with a rate of 97.7% and the MAPE of 5.06%; while these ratios are 98.6% and 3.56% in Mamdani fuzzy inference systems (FL); 99.0% and 2.43% in ANFIS. When these values were compared, it was found that the ANFIS model has become the best learning technique among the others and can be applicable in building energy performance studies.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7The Importance of Internal Heat Gains for Building Cooling Design(Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2017) Durmuş Arsan, Zeynep; Turhan, Cihan; Durmuş Arsan, Zeynep; Coşkun, Turgay; Turhan, Cihan; Gökçen Akkurt, Gülden; 02.02.
