Owing to stricter building energy requirements, future buildings will be characterized by low base loads and occasional high peaks. However, areas still contain existing historical with demand. Meanwhile, there is a requirement that should obtain from renewable sources, while need transited renewables. Therefore, the aim of this study was develop an approach for modelling pathways Norwegian res...

Building retrofit is an important facet in the drive to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. However, delivering building at scale a significant challenge, especially how automate process of surveying. On-site survey by expert surveyors main approach industry. This can lead high workload if planning large-scale. An advanced vehicle-mounted data capturing system has been built collect urban e...

This paper explores the method of assessing regional spatial ventilation performance for the design of residential building arrangements at an operational level. Three ventilation efficiency (VE) indices, Net Escape Velocity (NEV), Visitation Frequency (VF) and spatial-mean Velocity Magnitude (VM), are adopted to quantify the influence of design variation on VE within different regional spaces....
