Research summary
AI-generated

Diyu Yang's work focuses on how people perceive and adapt to indoor and outdoor thermal environments, such as how clothing, skin temperature, and psychological adaptation influence comfort in buildings and public spaces. The research combines building science and human physiology to develop and refine models that predict thermal comfort and acceptability under varying climate and seasonal conditions. Note: the listed OpenAlex topic scores are all zero, so the topic labels shown may not reliably reflect this researcher's actual specialty, which based on publication titles centers on indoor environmental quality and thermal comfort.
