“…For example, when a macropacked phase-change composite with aluminum was installed in a specific office size area, as shown in Figure 13a, it stabilized the temperature and reduced it by 2.7 °C and constantly decreased by at least 1.0 °C compared with pristine material (Figure 13b), which can be used in temporary houses, schools, and hospitals during hardship. [148] Nanopolyhybrids can be used as thermal insulators in daytime radiative cooling and can significantly improve the cooling performance under direct sunlight. [149,150] Recently, a typical thermalinsulating cooler was fabricated using cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), in which CNCs suspensions obtained from the hydrolysis process were cross-linked with the silane agent methyl trimethoxysilane, which generated SiO 2 NPs (Figure 13c).…”

“…Even in a typical continental-monsoon-climate Chinese city, Tianjin, the device produces uninterrupted heat (>0.15 GJ m −2 ) owing to the high solar-thermal energy conversion. With a real-time evaluation, the device reversibly regulates the outdoor temperature, heating, and cooling modes and reduces the fluctuation to ≈21 K compared with the Cu [148] Copyright 2022, Elsevier. c) Development of radiative supercooler using cellulose nanocrystals and a silica nanomaterial.…”

The fundamental requirements for thermal comfort along with the unbalanced growth in the energy demand and consumption worldwide have triggered the development and innovation of advanced materials for high thermal-management capabilities. However, continuous development remains a significant challenge in designing thermally robust materials for the efficient thermal management of industrial devices and manufacturing technologies. The notable achievements thus far in nanopolyhybrid design technologies include multiresponsive energy harvesting/conversion (e.g., light, magnetic, and electric), thermoregulation (including microclimate), energy saving in construction, as well as the miniaturization, integration, and intelligentization of electronic systems. These are achieved by integrating nanomaterials and polymers with desired engineering strategies. Herein, fundamental design approaches that consider diverse nanomaterials and the properties of nanopolyhybrids are introduced, and the emerging applications of hybrid composites such as personal and electronic thermal management and advanced medical applications are highlighted. Finally, current challenges and outlook for future trends and prospects are summarized to develop nanopolyhybrid materials.

“…Moreover, temperature stability and control for temporary constructions can be provided by PCMs, which is an excellent approach in crisis situations such as the Covid-19 pandemic [28]. Inside-building air quality has a significant impact on human comfort, and this is a major post-pandemic concern [30].…”

With the recent large increase in the building sector's energy use to provide thermal comfort to consumers, the restrictions of climate change, and the scarcity of energy supplies, there has been a need to develop ways to reduce energy consumption. The use of phase change materials (PCMs) as a thermal energy storage (TES) system has attracted a lot of attention as a technique to improve thermal performance, conserve energy, and improve occupant comfort. When storing energy via phase change, the key advantage in terms of building materials is the higher energy density, which indicates that more energy can be stored in a constant volume. This study focuses on the vital role of PCMs in building applications by presenting the different classifications of PCMs as well as their integration techniques, systems, and benefits for building applications. Different case studies for full scale buildings are presented. A design strategy is concluded for integrating PCMs in buildings.

“…In recent years, more and more research has focused on how to improve the sustainability [5] and human comfort of temporary buildings while maintaining the rapid construction characteristics at the same time by applying new materials [6,7] or proposing new design schemes. Grosso and Thiebat [8] proposed a life-cycle environmental assessment method based on the embedded energy calculations of respective components related to foundations, structures, and envelopes of buildings made of different construction materials.…”

With the applications of new construction technologies and design ideas, innovative construction methods and architectural designs promote overall productivity and enrich architectural impressions. However, faced with the contradictions between construction efficiency, project benefits, and sustainability, together with the dynamically variable social demands and monotonous design of current temporary light steel structures, a new type of growable light steel structure with parameterisable and assembled architectural units is proposed. Besides, a fast-assembled track foundation that can be detachable and recycled is adopted. Both can promote the growth of light steel units. To be specific, its architectural spaces can be extended and contracted, and the structural form and service space can be adjusted by the reorganisation and optimisation of unit arrangements. Meanwhile, due to the advantages of information integrations and 3D visualisations of BIM technology, a BIM-based design and construction method of growable light steel structures is studied. Based on the arrangements of track and parametrically transformed light steel units, this study expands the architectural forms of light steel structures. It explores their respective applications in practical architectural design to solve current shortages of land resources, properly respond to variable building environments, simultaneously enrich the design schemes of current light steel structures, improve the utilisation rate of structural spaces, and enhance the aesthetic sensations of buildings.
