A significant amount of energy is consumed by buildings due to ineffective design decisions with little consideration for energy efficiency. Yet, performance parameters should be considered during the early design phase, which is vital for improved energy performance and lower CO2 emissions. BIM, as a new way of working methodology, can help for performance-based design. However, it is still infancy in architectural practice about how BIM can be used to develop energy efficient design. Thus, the aim is to propose a strategic framework to guide architects about how to do performance-based design considering the local values and energy performance parameters. The research adopts a multi case study approach to gain qualitative and quantitative insights into the building energy performance considering the building design parameters. The outcome is a new design approach and protocol to assist designers to successfully use BIM for design optimization, PV technology use in design, rules-based design and performance assessment scheme reflecting local values.

Vehicle safety is of great importance to improve the capability and performance of the transportation system. To deal with safety threats most probably caused by the vehicle collisions in unsignalized intersections, concept of vehicle infrastructure cooperation provides a perspective and challenging solution to enable sufficient information interaction by V2V and V2I communication, which make it feasible to avoid collisions more autonomously. In vehicle collision avoidance scheme, decision making of vehicle braking control is crucial for emergent situations when safety alerts are not reacted by the driver. In this paper, a novel cooperative vehicle collision avoidance method based on particle swarm optimization is proposed, with an integrated fitness updating criteria considering both safety interval and relative continuity of vehicle deceleration. With a simulation analysis approach, the proposed collision avoiding solution is validated in a real road oriented scenario, and the results demonstrate its effectiveness and advantages to reduce collision and achieve safety assurance under cooperative vehicle infrastructure environment.
