  4. 4. Windows and blinds selection for enhancing subjective well-being

    Author : Elaheh Jalilzadehazhari; Jimmy Johansson; Krushna Mahapatra; Peter Johansson; Myriam Aries; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Subjective well-being; perceived control; controllability; analytical hierarchy process; non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II; Byggteknik; Civil engineering;

    Abstract : Earlier studies in the context of windows and blinds selection have mostly tried to increase the awareness regarding various effects of windows and blinds selection on subjective well-being, including their effect on visual comfort, thermal comfort, energy consumption and life cycle cost. However, the main problem is the potential conflicts between visual comfort, thermal comfort, energy consumption and life cycle cost. READ MORE

  5. 5. A decision-making framework for enhancing client well-being : When designing windows and blinds

    Author : Elaheh Jalilzadehazhari; Jimmy Johansson; Krushna Mahapatra; Peter Johansson; Linnéuniversitetet; []
