Data-driven techniques for healthy, energy resilient housing
The UK has an abundance of data on housing, energy use, and health. Cutting edge data science and housing stock models will be used to explore the complex inter-relationships between home energy efficiency, fuel poverty, indoor temperatures, and health. Read more
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
Lightweight Structural Systems for Resilient and Low-Cost Housing
The legally binding UK government target to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050 cannot be achieved without minimizing the carbon footprint of the construction sector. Read more
Net zero housing retrofits - assuring a sustainable low-carbon transition in the domestic sector
The UK has committed to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. The UK's 29 million houses represent 14% of total emissions (CCC, 2019), with nearly 90% of these built more than 20 years ago before stricter energy efficiency standards came into force (Ince & Marvin, 2019). Read more
Performance criteria for passive housing systems using nanostructured behaviours for energy harvesting and environmental comfort
In the context of wider goals towards Sustainable Development Goals SDGs through Net Zero Energy Building nZEB. A combination of sustainable design and renewable energy harvesting strategies is a promising path to sustainable development in the construction sector. Read more
System dynamics modelling and simulation of sufficiency policies in complex supply chains
