Towards Human-Centred Intelligent Envelopes: A Framework For Capturing The Holistic Effect Of Smart Façades On Occupant Comfort And Satisfaction, Alessandra Luna-Navarro, Mauro Overend
Towards Human-Centred Intelligent Envelopes: A Framework For Capturing The Holistic Effect Of Smart Façades On Occupant Comfort And Satisfaction, Alessandra Luna-Navarro, Mauro Overend
International Building Physics Conference 2018
Intelligent buildings have the potential to simultaneously revolutionise the way humans live and reduce energy demand in buildings. In particular, the so-called, smart / dynamic / adaptive building envelope can selectively modulate the energy transfer between the building and its environment in response to transient outdoor conditions and indoor requirements, thereby providing a low-carbon means of achieving occupant satisfaction and well-being. However, the effect of smart facades on holistic occupant comfort and satisfaction with the environment is yet to be fully captured and quantified. This information is essential for evidence-based design and control of smart building envelopes. In this paper, …

Physics Student Research
Some students struggle more than others during their college years and if not identified and given the help they need many drop out, resulting in less money for the university and lack of direction and education for the student. Students were identified as “at-risk” after failing their first exam in a general science course and were given an extra assignment to make up some points. The assignment was given to help students learn structured study skills in order to prepare for the following examination. The work turned in by these students was analyzed and critiqued for quality and effort. As …
