Identification and planning of walkable routes for urban heat adaptation
This project focuses on urban slow-moving path system. The morphological characteristics of slow-moving spaces and high-temperature environmental characteristics are analyzed, and the health and safety impacts of high temperatures are evaluated in combination with population characteristics, activity types, and health indicators, in order to explore the response mechanism of suitable slow-moving paths to the characteristics of slow-moving spaces (spatial characteristics, adaptation facilities) and high-temperature impacts. This project is expected to accurately predict and evaluate the impact of high temperatures in cities, deliver high-temperature health warning signals, and combine the heat tolerance of the population to provide real-time feedback and decision-making for residents' healthy travel paths.

Time hysteresis and dynamic evolution of instantaneous heat stress of human bodies
This project explores the mechanism of thermal adaptation and thermal fatigue of the body to fluctuating heat stress stimulation, determines the threshold of instantaneous heat tolerance and cumulative heat tolerance of the body, explores the law of instantaneous heat stress hysteresis and its dynamic evolution law of superposition, stability and offset, and establishes the model of instantaneous and cumulative heat stress of the body to provide scientific support for travel route selection and space optimization design.

Ventilation-induced heat island mitigation and the controls in local-scale urban areas based on the local ventilation zone method
This project is designated to classify complex local spaces based on the abstraction, parameterization, and standardization of the local ventilation zone (LVZ) method to reduce the difficulty and workload of local ventilation cooling studies. In particular, this project improves the LVZ standardized index system , and develops an effective and universal LVZ identification method. Furthermore, this project uses three-dimensional spatial form measurement and information mining technology to identify the LVZs. Afterwards, based on on-site microclimate monitoring and scenario simulation, this project systematically explores the "inter -category" and "intra-category" ventilation performance and heat island effect variations in/among various LVZs and, reveals local ventilation cooling mechanism.
