Building Performance Evaluation [PDF]

, 2013
The Chapter will include an introduction to the context of the performance of buildings in use – changing energy and environmental targets and the development of new designs, materials, and technologies to meet these targets. The questions that emerges is, are these successful? Are the targets being met and if not why not? And are there related effects

Building Performance Simulation

, 2023
AbstractSimulation is a proven technique that uses computational, mathematical, and machine learning models to represent the physical characteristics, expected or actual operation, and control strategies of a building and its energy systems. Simulations can be used in a number of tasks along the deep renovation life cycle, including: (a) integrating ...
