Energy performance evaluation of a passive house built to Scottish building standards. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bros Williamson, J., Stinson, J., & Currie, J. (2014). Energy performance evaluation of a passive house built to Scottish building standards.

Ensuring that predicted (simulated) energy performance figures are realised once a building is in-use has been of growing concern since issues surrounding the ‘performance gap’ were realised in the mid 1990’s [1]. Increasing energy demand and a decre... Read More about Energy performance evaluation of a passive house built to Scottish building standards..

New thin aerogel based high performance internal wall insulation for existing solid wall buildings. (2014)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Carty, L., Garnier, C., Bros Williamson, J., & Currie, J. (2014, March). New thin aerogel based high performance internal wall insulation for existing solid wall buildings. Presented at Rehab 2014

Applications of nanotechnology in the form of high performing aerogel insulation are now widely used from space exploration to the oil and gas industry and in more recent years in the construction industry. Previous research has shown the merits of t... Read More about New thin aerogel based high performance internal wall insulation for existing solid wall buildings..
