Abstract: Thermal in buildings are always interesting to discuss, especially in tropical climate countries, more in related to the traditional architecture that many are around us today. This study aims to present the actual information related to the thermal comfort of traditional buildings in current conditions. This research tries to prove public opinion which still believes that traditional buildings are always comfortable and able to survive with the existing climate conditions. The method used is literature review on the results of research in journals that discuss the thermal comfort of traditional buildings in Indonesia. Some previous studies have claimed that traditional architecture has been design in such a way as to compromise climate conditions. However, recent research trends show that traditional architecture is no longer able to maintain thermal comfort, so design intervention is absolutely necessary. Thermal discomfort is influenced by tropical climate pressures that tend to be very hot, changes in the environment, buidling system, materials, design, and orientation of the building.Keyword: Traditional Architecture, Thermal, Local Wisdom, Tropical ClimateAbstrak: Termal bangunan akan selalu menarik dibahas khususnya pada negara iklim tropis, terlebih dikaitkan dengan arsitektur tradisional yang masih bertahan di sekitar kita saat ini. Penelitian ini bertujuan menyajikan informasi aktual terkait kenyamanan termal bangunan tradisional saat ini. Upaya membuktikan pendapat umum yang masih beranggaoan bahwa bangunan tradisional selalu nyaman dan mampu bertahan dengan kondisi iklim yang ada. Metode yang digunakan adalah tinjauan pustaka pada hasi-hasil penelitian di jurnal yang membahas tentang kenyamanan termal bangunan tradisional di Indonesia. Beberapa waktu sebelumnya banyak penelitian yang mengklaim bahwa arsitektur tradisional telah dikonsepkan sedemikian rupa untuk bertahan terhadap iklim. Akan tetapi tren penelitian terbaru memperlihatkan bahwa arsitektur tradisional sebenarnya sudah tidak lagi mampu mempertahankan kenyamanan termal, sehingga intervensi desain mutlak diperlukan. Ketidaknyamanan termal dipengaruhi oleh tekanan iklim tropis yang cenderung sangat panas, perubahan lingkungan di sekitar, sistem bangunan, material, desain, dan orientasi bangunan.Kata Kunci: Arsitektur Tradisional, Kenyamanan Termal, Kearifan lokal, Iklim Tropis.

Abstract -Thermal comfort is a state of mind that expresses satisfaction with the thermal environment. There are two main categories in the effort to obtain a comfort index; empirical and analytical. Empirical is based on social surveys, while analysis is based on the physics principle of heat flow.Bandung city is one of the historical cities in Indonesia which has many historical heritage buidings. One of them which is commonly known as colonial buildings in Bandung is Lautze 2 Mosque, located at Tamblong Street in the city center of Bandung. This research was conducted to analyze the thermal comfort in the Lautze 2 Mosque Bandung. The analytical method used in this study is a quantitative research method by measuring the main factors namely air temperature, air humidity and air velocity. The main factors become obstacles to get thermal comfort data at the Lautze 2 Mosque Bandung is the location of buildings located in areas with tropical climate conditions with high air temperatures, high air humidity, and low air velocitys.The research conclude that thermal comfort in the Lautze 2 Mosque Bandung building can be categorized as uncomfortable, it can be seen from the measurement results of related factors, namely the temperature and humidity that exceeds the comfort limit and the low air velocity in the building becomes an obstacle to obtain thermal comfort. Keywords: colonial buildings, mosque, thermal comfort, tropical climate.

This review discusses the thermal performance of traditional buildings in Indonesia. It is intended to see the impact of the traditional architectural design and its thermal comfort in the warm humid climate of Indonesia. The literature review was taken from 16 articles which cover Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, and the Nusa Tenggara region. The articles were classified into tropical climates (Af), monsoon tropics (Am) and savanna (Af) groups to identify which architectural elements in traditional buildings contributes to thermal comfort. Based on simulation and measurement in the field, it is found that the roof contributes to changes in temperature in the building.

The tropical climate with its high average temperatures throughout the year affects the thermal comfort of buildings, especially for naturally ventilated spaces. The government’s move to turn hospitals into green buildings is seen in line with the global commitment to conserve the environment and the country’s current policy of supporting sustainable development. To achieve this goal, energy efficiency and thermal comfort need to be given priority in the focus on hospital planning and implementation for a better quality of the indoor environment. This literature review has led to the need to improve thermal comfort in natural ventilated wards in government hospitals. Some wards are built without air conditioning to save on construction costs, reduce utility costs through low energy consumption, as well as the need for infection control and airborne infections. However, current climate change requires a special study of thermal comfort in wards that use natural ventilation. An innovative solution is proposed to solve the problem statement identified in the reviewed literature through the application of solar PV/T systems and heat pumps. This hybrid system re-uses the heat energy (cogeneration) generated from solar PV panels to be cooled by heat pumps and is then pumped into the ward for cooling purposes. The proposed system has the potential to improve thermal comfort in natural ventilation wards and increase efficiency of the solar PV system for optimal electricity generation as well as improve the overall energy performance of buildings through low-energy cooling systems. It is not only solving the thermal comfort issue but also avoid the use of extra energy for cooling by optimizing the renewable energy.

This article explores the impact of online crime victimisation. A literature review and 41 interviews – 19 with victims and 22 with experts – were carried out to gain insight into this. The interviews show that most impacts of online offences correspond to the impacts of traditional offline offences. There are also differences with offline crime victimisation. Several forms of impact seem to be specific to victims of online crime: the substantial scale and visibility of victimhood, victimisation that does not stop in time, the interwovenness of online and offline, and victim blaming. Victims suffer from double, triple or even quadruple hits; it is the accumulation of different types of impact, enforced by the limitlessness in time and space, which makes online crime victimisation so extremely invasive. Furthermore, the characteristics of online crime victimisation greatly complicate the fight against and prevention of online crime. Finally, the high prevalence of cybercrime victimisation combined with the severe impact of these crimes seems contradictory with public opinion – and associated moral judgments – on victims. Further research into the dominant public discourse on victimisation and how this affects the functioning of the police and victim support would be valuable.

Recent population migrations have led to numerous accidents and deaths. Little research has been done to help migrants in their journey. For this reason, a literature review of the latest research conducted in previous years is required to identify new research trends in human-swarm interaction. This article presents a review of techniques that can be used in a robots swarm to find, locate, protect and help migrants in hazardous environment such as militarized zone. The paper presents a swarm interaction taxonomy including a detailed study on the control of swarm with and without interaction. As the interaction mainly occurs in cluttered or crowded environment (with obstacles) the paper discussed the algorithms related to navigation that can be included with an interaction strategy. It focused on comparing algorithms and their advantages and disadvantages.

The thermal environment is one of the main factors that influence thermal comfort and, consequently, the productivity of occupants inside buildings. Throughout the years, research has described the connection between thermal comfort and productivity. Mathematical models have been established in the attempt to predict changes in productivity according to thermal variations in the environment. Some of these models have failed for a number of reasons, including the understanding of the effect that several environment variables have had on performance. From this context, a systematic literature review was carried out with the aim of verifying the connection between thermal comfort and productivity and the combinations of different thermal and personal factors that can have an effect on productivity. A hundred and twenty-eight articles were found which show a connection between productivity and some thermal comfort variables. By means of specific inclusion and exclusion criteria, 60 articles were selected for a final analysis. The main conclusions found in this study were: (i) the vast majority of research uses subjective measures and/or a combination of methods to evaluate productivity; (ii) performance/productivity can be attained within an ampler temperature range; (iii) few studies present ways of calculating productivity.
