This paper presents a hybrid model integrating the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Genetic Algorithms (GA) to optimize construction machinery selection based on cost, CO2 emissions, maintenance, and age. AHP was used to determine precise weighting criteria, while a Python-based GA explored the solution space using technical penalty functions. ...

This study analyses daylight availability in a faculty lecture classroom using illuminance measurements and a survey of students. The results of the measurements conducted in mid-February showed that the recommended horizontal illuminance level (300 lx) was achieved at 50% of the measurement points around midday (12:00 h and 14:00 h), while only 0&...

The Architecture of Emptiness is an urban-architectural approach that focuses on the qualities and possibilities of unbuilt space, giving it primacy over built space. The proposed approach explores how emptiness can act as a generative force for urban-architectural pieces and how, in return, it echoes its built and natural environment. It highlight...

This paper examines Orthodox church architecture through the concept of actualizing space, proposing that sacred architecture becomes fully intelligible only through the liturgical event that activates its spatial structure. Rather than focusing on stylistic continuity, the study interprets church architecture as a hierarchical and sequential spati...
