“…Zhu et al [15] compared identical wood and concrete constructions in Las Vegas and found that the wood construction required higher space heating energy, but lower space cooling energy than the concrete construction. In order to determine a set of possible energy efficient exterior wall configurations for ZEBs (zero energy buildings) situated in the Mediterranean region, Baglivo et al [16] carried out a multi-criteria optimization analysis focusing on the thermal mass and thermal inertia of the envelope. They noted that the best sequences of layers are those with high surface mass (e.g.…”

“…Many studies have analyzed several types of high energetic efficiency external walls for ZEBs; in particular in the Mediterranean climate, Baglivo et al [2,3] carried out an analysis through the combination of various materials, in terms of steady thermal transmittance, periodic thermal transmittance, decrement factor, time shift, areal heat capacity, thermal admittance, surface mass, thickness.…”

“…The study highlights the importance to evaluate how the dynamic parameters are influenced by the variations of the external and internal loads, changing the operating mode of the technological system and the shortwave radiative heat fluxes. Several studies [23][24][25] have been carried out to define the characteristics of a high energy performant external envelope for a warm climate, highlighting the importance of heat storage capacity. It has been possible to note that external walls with high values of internal areal heat capacity can reduce significantly and delay temperature peaks inside the building.…”
