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
High resolution methods for assessment of heat loss from plants and arrays of buildings.
PROJECT SUMMARY. . With this project, we propose an investigation into a variety of dynamics and effects produced by the interaction of an array of buildings (or a set of heat sources in an industrial plant or in a power plant) with a cross flow (horizontal wind). 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
Fully Funded PhD or Master’s in Acoustics & Metamaterials for Buildings
Fully Funded PhD or Master’s in Acoustics & Metamaterials for Buildings. 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.

Understanding the main factors involved in oversizing the building environmental systems and 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

What is the research about?. The QuakeCoRE research program aims to investigate the economic benefits of implementing functional recovery design standards for new buildings. Read more
Evaluation, optimisation and design of energy piles
The concept of net zero energy building (NZEB) aims to design and construct buildings with less energy consumption and low carbon emission. Read more
Looking to the future: Monitoring Indoor Air Quality in buildings
Research Group:
School of Electronic & Electrical Engineering
The overall objective is to generate and test out a system to monitor building indoor air quality (IAQ) to avoid the difficult situation the world has suffered… 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
