Adaptive shading for energy retrofitting: a case study of high-rise residential buildings in Saudi Arabia

This thesis investigates the energy retrofitting (ER) of buildings within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), a sector significantly influencing the country's energy consumption. The research develops an approach adapted to the local climatic conditions, intending to enhance energy efficiency, c...
