Data-driven modelling of energy demands in buildings

Project Summary. 3.5 years full time, start date 1st October 23. Description of Project. We seek to recruit a highly motivated PhD researcher with technical ability to conduct research in the area of modelling energy demand in buildings. Read more

Adaptive thermal comfort in office buildings: an Adaptive Predict Mean Vote model

In recent years, adaptive thermal comfort studies played a positive role in sustainability in buildings. The exploration of thermal adaptation in different regions, different types of buildings, and different demographic groups are the research trend internationally. Read more

Low-carbon building retrofit by adopting an integrated archetype and net-zero approach

Summary. This PhD opportunity emerges from the need to develop an archetype and low-carbon heating approach that delivers Scotland's net-zero targets considering the implications of the built heritage, the surrounding public and private space and the communities that depend on many of our existing built heritage.

Digitally twinned rating systems for low energy housing in Scotland.

This PhD Project aims to develop innovative ‘digitally twinned’ rating systems for low energy housing in Scotland. Energy efficiency is becoming a pressing issue that must be addressed in current and future housing developments. Read more

Monitoring Buildings, Volcanoes and Seismic Activity Using Large Ring Laser Gyroscopes

Description. Monitoring Buildings, Volcanoes and Seismic Activity Using Large Ring Laser Gyroscopes. A ring laser is a self-excited optical oscillator employing a cavity where the round trip path encloses a finite area. Read more

Large Eddy Simulation Around Buildings (LES)

Computational Wind Engineering has been developing rapidly over the last couple of decades. Among the numerical techniques, Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is capable of simulating complex unsteady turbulent flows, which is very useful for applications such as wind-induced noise/vibrations around buildings and structures.

Impacts of oversizing on the performance of energy and environmental systems

Heating, cooling, and ventilation systems in buildings are often sized at capacities exceeding the demand for these services. This can result in inefficient operation, higher initial and operational costs, and larger environmental impacts. Read more

Building integrated Photvoltaic for existing bulidings

As the quest for sustainable building increases, Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) promises to be a viable energy source that easily blends with modern architectural materials. Read more

CNT/cement nanocomposite materials for structural applications for buildings

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with remarkable mechanical and electrical properties have been used for enhancement of mechanical properties of polymer matrix materials but its capability for enhancement of cement based materials has not been widely explored yet. Read more
