Monumental work revised

MonArch - Digital Archives for Monumental Buildings

Monumental buildings such as cathedrals or castles together with their often very old and large archives form an important part of our cultural memory and heritage. Unique documents like medieval manuscripts, precious incunables, and church registers as well as original building plans, construction reports, old chemical recipies used for repairing and various others can be found in these archiv...

An Overview of Experimental and Simulation Work on Indoor Climate and Control in Historic Houses and Monumental Buildings

In Eindhoven University of Technology, the Building Physics and Systems Unit is working on topics of building physics and HVAC systems. The group, which has a number of experimental facilities, has been working for over thirty-five years on the computer simulation of the indoor climate of buildings in general and on the thermal comfort of people in particular. The group has a lot of contacts wi...

Inverse Modeling of Climate Responses of Monumental Buildings

The indoor climate conditions of monumental buildings are very important for the conservation of these objects. Simplified models with physical meaning are desired that are capable of simulating temperature and relative humidity. In this paper we research state-space models as methodology for the inverse modeling of climate responses of unheated monumental buildings. It is concluded that this a...
