Research reaching practice
A Persian HVAC trade article draws on Professor Amir’s Malaysian outdoor thermal-comfort study.
How the research was used
The article discusses the study’s findings on shaded campus spaces and different comfort perceptions among native and non-native participants. These findings enter a practitioner-facing discussion of outdoor spaces in residential complexes and the relationship between environmental design and personal adaptation.
