Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 1EXAMINING THE DAYLIGHTING PERFORMANCE OF OFFICE BUILDINGS ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE RECTORATE BUILDING IN IZMIR(ZNACK PUBLISHING HOUSE, 2021) Ecenur Kizilorenli; Ebru Alakavuk; Alakavuk, Ebru; Kizilorenli, EcenurThe efficient use of energy resources has affected all areas of life as well as architecture. There are many ways to increase energy efficiency in buildings. Supporting the efficient use of daylight in the design process reducing the energy to be used for artificial illumination and reducing heating costs are among the applications that support energy efficiency. The issue of supporting daylighting by reducing artificial illumination draws attention especially in office buildings due to the high number of hours used during the day. Insufficient light and lack of visual comfort in offices used during the day increase the consumption of electrical energy. Within the scope of this study a parametric study was conducted to optimize the daylighting performance of an office building. For this purpose rectorate building of a university which is used as an office building was selected for the case study and the daylight condition of this building was examined. For increasing the daylighting performance of the building some revisions were proposed. Results of this research are discussed with visuals and simulation values.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Multi-Objective Optimization of a Folding Kinetic Facade System Proposal for Thermal Daylight and Energy Performances(Gazi Universitesi, 2025) Yonca Yaman; Ecenur Kızılörenli; Ayça Tokuç; Kizilorenli, Ecenur; Yaman, Yonca; Tokuc, AycaEfficient utilization of daylight and energy resources significantly influences the quality of indoor spaces user comfort and overall efficiency. This study presents a folding facade proposal through the design alternatives offered by kinetic architecture and parametric design to enhance efficiency. This alternative design method integrates and coordinates the design components simultaneously and makes any intervention easier when compared with traditional design methods. In this context the method is based on computational models aiming to find the most efficient design alternative by optimization. The proposed facade design specifically targets an indoor office space within a university. The modular system integrated into existing windows facilitates a folding movement. This dynamic feature aims to optimize illumination within the space effectively controlling daylight without causing disruptions to users. Simultaneously the design seeks to balance energy consumption and ensure thermal comfort. The results show that it provides a significant improvement over the base case. The proposed kinetic façade system improved indoor thermal comfort by 80.68-98.11% while slightly increasing energy use (4.72% at most). The average improvement in Spatial Daylight Autonomy (sDA) is 34.98%. Although the number of solutions meeting LEED in terms of Annual Solar Exposure (ASE) is small there is an average improvement of up to 64% compared to the base case. In conclusion the proposed kinetic facade system proves to be a valuable intervention for enhancing the indoor environment of an office space at Dokuz Eylül University. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.

Bu nedenle eğitim binalarında etkili gün ışığı ve yapay aydınlatma stratejilerinin uygulanması son derece kritiktir. Bu sorunu ele almak için seçilen üniversitedeki bir sınıf için yatay bir gün ışığı tüpü ve bir çıkma kombinasyonu önerilmiştir. Amaç gün ışığının kullanılabilirliğini artırmak ve parlamayı azaltmak olarak belirlenmiştir. Hedef LEEDv4 standartlarında belirtilen gün ışığı değerlendirme kriterlerinde öngörüldüğü gibi belirlenen analiz alanında en az %55'lik bir Mekansal Gün Işığı Otonomisi ve %10'dan fazla olmayan bir Yıllık Güneş Işığı Maruziyeti elde etmektir. Sınıfın gün ışığı performansındaki iyileştirmelere ek olarak mevcut sistemin yerine homojen ve yeterli aydınlatma sağlayan bir yapay aydınlatma sistemi önerilmiştir. Önerilen sistemin enerji tüketiminin azaltılması da istenen hedefler arasındadır. Önerilen sistemler değerlendirilirken gün ışığı simülasyonları için Rhinoceros ve ClimateStudio yapay aydınlatma simülasyonları için ise DIALux kullanılmıştır. Sonuçlar önerilen çözümlerin amaçlandığı gibi başarılı olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca önerilen yapay aydınlatma sistemi ile standartların gerektirdiği aydınlatma değerlerine ulaşılmış ve enerji tüketimi azaltılmıştır.Article Educating non-specialized audiences about seismic design principles using videos and physical models(Izzet Kara, 2024) Ecenur Kızılörenli; Mauricio Morales-Beltran; Ceren Duyal-Kulak; Morales-beltran, Mauricio; Kızılörenli, Ecenur; Duyal-kulak, Ceren; Duyal, CerenThe prevalence of self-construction practices in Türkiye has resulted in a building stock whose earthquake resilience is highly uncertain. To mitigate the potentially devastating impact of anticipated large earthquakes one viable approach is to increase earthquake awareness among builders themselves. However these builders lack formal engineering training and are ordinary citizens. Therefore the challenge lies in devising visual teaching methods such as short videos to explain complex seismic phenomena in a comprehensible manner. This paper introduces the use of educational media tailored for non-specialized audiences encompassing regular citizens and students without engineering backgrounds. These videos are based on experiments conducted with physical models on a homemade shake table. They focus on key factors influencing the seismic response of multi-storey buildings and highlight common design and construction errors that lead to building damage. To assess the effectiveness of this approach we conducted a workshop with junior architecture students followed by post-workshop qualitative assessments through knowledge surveys and interviews. The findings indicate that while single-topic videos were effective learning tools for students without prior knowledge of seismic building design students found models particularly useful for explaining specific concepts such as torsional behavior the role of diaphragms and the performance of non-structural components. However despite positive feedback on the effectiveness of model testing students generally did not perceive significant knowledge acquisition in model construction. Ultimately the accessibility of freely available videos coupled with their enhanced educational value makes them effective tools for raising seismic awareness in communities vulnerable to future earthquakes.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3User-Oriented Architectural Design of Separated Infill Walls to Prevent Soft Ground Story in Reinforced Concrete Low-Rise Buildings(ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERS, 2021) Mauricio Morales-Beltran; Feyza Durmuslar; Ecenur Kizilorenli; Morales-Beltran, Mauricio; Kizilorenli, Ecenur; Klzllörenli, Ecenur; Durmuslar, FeyzaBuildings with open ground stories are more vulnerable to soft story mechanisms which might lead to building collapse in a moderate quake. To mitigate these negative effects retrofitting techniques typically introduce new structural elements or energy dissipation devices which increases the deformation capacity of the soft story without modifying the stories above. However by altering the open nature of the ground floor these solutions fail to integrate the occupants' preferences and needs into the design process. Therefore instead of modifying the ground floor this study will propose a user-centered design process which is based on separated infill walls in the upper stories to mitigate the effects of soft story irregularity. The user-centered design strategy integrates the needs and preferences of the occupants into the design solutions of their built environment. To achieve this two low-rise reinforced concrete buildings in Turkey were selected as case studies and subjected to structural analyses to determine whether the separation of the existing infill masonry walls reduced the lateral strength of the structure. In parallel preliminary designs of the infill separations was developed and discussed with architects practicing engineers and builders. The feedback helped to develop design details to achieve the separation of the infill walls from the frames in the studied buildings. The occupants that live in the existing buildings or the surrounding areas were interviewed and presented with parametric variations of these proposals. Quantitative data suggests that separation of the infill walls is a feasible solution that could be applied to new construction and for existing reinforced concrete multistory buildings and the qualitative data that was obtained from the interviews suggested that user-centered design approaches help to develop suitable seismic mitigation strategies.

However providing adequate daylighting without glare can be difficult especially in deep-plan layout classrooms because daylight is not constant and its strength varies with distance from the facade necessitating the use of additional solutions frequently. In this study tubular daylight guidance systems (TDGS) and movable shading devices are proposed to increase daylight availability in the Yasar University Faculty of Architecture Temporary Studio which has a deep plan layout and receives daylight only from the southeast facade. The objective was to meet the LEED daylight evaluation requirements for each zone which require sDA to be at least 55% and ASE to be at most 10% in the selected analysis area. To propose TDGS and movable shadings with the most efficient angles and positions, Rhinoceros Grasshopper and Climate Studio were used and simulation results were validated by real -time measurements. The design proposal simulation results achieved a significant increase in daylight availability in the rear part of the room (zone 2-3) while glare was diminished near the facade (zone1). The proposed design strategy improved daylight availability through the room demonstrating that the systems perform well together.Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 25Modular responsive facade proposals based on semi-regular and demi-regular tessellation: daylighting and visual comfort(KEAI PUBLISHING LTD, 2023) Ecenur Kizilorenli; Feray Maden; Kızılörenli, Ecenur; Maden, FerayResponsive facades can reduce building energy consumption and control daylight and natural ventilation to improve user comfort. This study aims to develop alternative responsive facade systems based on semi-regular and demi-regular tessellations. For this purpose first the tessellation method used to generate responsive facades is introduced. Then the geometric and parametric design principles and the movement capabilities of the proposed facade systems are presented. Finally a set of analyses are performed to test and compare the performances of the facade systems based on daylight metrics and indoor glare comfort. This study contributes to the literature with the proposed facade systems that can adapt to changing environmental conditions provide flexibility in shape control and simplicity in mechanism design and improve building performance. The analysis results show that all the proposed facade systems provide the desired visual comfort and daylight levels at different configurations. & COPY, 2023 Higher Education Press Limited Company.
