The usage of building energy accounts for 30–40% of total energy consumption in developed countries, exceeding the amount for industry or transportation. Around 50% energy for building services is contributed by heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. More importantly, both building and HVAC energy consumptions are predicted to increase in the next two decades. Windows are considered as the least energy-efficient components of buildings. Therefore, smart windows are becoming increasingly important as they are capable of reducing HVAC energy usage by tuning the transmitted sunlight in a smart and favoured way: blocking solar irradiation on hot days, while letting it pass through on cold days. Compared with other type of smart windows, thermochromic windows have the unique advantages of cost-effectiveness, rational stimulus, and passive response. This book covers fabrication of vanadium dioxide–based smart windows, discusses various strategies to enhance their performance, and shares perspectives from the top scientists in this particular field.

This book presents groundbreaking research on children's perceptions and experiences of their surroundings, examining how these perceptions shape their travel decisions and overall well-being. Drawing on extensive case studies from diverse regions in China, it provides valuable insights into the unique challenges rural children face in their daily journeys to school and other destinations. Journey through both urban and rural environment as we analyze the complex relationships between neighborhood design, road environments, and children's travel mode choices. The book uses innovative approaches, including machine learning/SHAP modeling and nonlinear analysis, to uncover the mechanisms by which the built environment influences children's travel behavior.
