morphing and other urban effects in energy simulations 8. The
climate-related potential of natural ventilation 9. Different approaches to
urban energy modelling 10. Low carbon heating and cooling strategies for
urban residential buildings - A bottom-up engineering modelling approach
11. Definition, modelling and performance evaluation of energy distribution
networks of prosumers Part III: Adaptation and mitigation measures 12. Cool
materials in buildings. Roofs as a measure for urban energy rehabilitation
13. Building greenery systems 14. Thermochromic and retro-reflective
materials 15. Urban green infrastructures for climate change adaptation: a
