Increasing attention to utilise more sustainable materials in the construction industry has made timber-based building elements more desirable. The advantages of timber in prefabrication and sustainable development are widely known, and recent invest... Read More about Four Angles of Using Timber in Tall Buildings.

An Expandable, Contextualized and Data-Driven Indoor Thermal Comfort Model (2020)
Journal Article
Sajjadian, S. M., Jafari, M., & Pekaslan, D. (2020). An Expandable, Contextualized and Data-Driven Indoor Thermal Comfort Model. Energy and Built Environment, 1(4), 385-392. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbenv.2020.04.005

Continuous discrepancies in building performance predictions creates an ongoing inclination to link contextualized, real-time inputs and users’ feedback for not only building control systems but also for simulation tools. It is now seeming necessary... Read More about An Expandable, Contextualized and Data-Driven Indoor Thermal Comfort Model.
