Title:
A novel risk-based design framework for urban heat island: A case study of Kempten, Germany
Abstract:
Studies on the urban heat island (UHI) effect have increased over the past decades and have mainly focused on topics such as thermal comfort, building energy, and sensitivity studies. There is currently a research gap in the development of risk-based design criteria for UHI. This paper proposed a novel risk-based UHI design criteria using heat-related mortality risk. The design criteria was developed based on the annual hottest seven-day mean temperatures. Frequency-consequence curves (or F–N cu...     »
