A computational toolchain for the automatic generation of multiple Reduced-Order Models from CFD simulations
(Elsevier, 2019-05-25)This paper describes the development of a systematic tool chain capable of automatically extracting accurate and efficient Reduced-Order Models (ROMs) from Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. These ROMs can ... -
Evaluating the structural capacity of concrete elements through in-situ instrumentation
(2013)The difficulty in predicting the long term load capacity of concrete elements is well documented. Time dependent effects such as creep and shrinkage coupled with varying loading events, particularly during construction, ... -
Formal Calibration methodology for a CFD model of a naturally ventilated room
(2011)This paper describes a systematic methodology for the development of calibrated thermodynamic Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models for controlled environments in buildings utilising wireless sensor networks. ... -
Formal calibration methodology for CFD model development to support the operation of energy efficient buildings
(Texas A&M University, 2010)Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a robust tool for modelling interactions within and between fluids and solids. CFD can help understand and predict phenomena that are difficult to test experimentally leading ... -
The influence of heat transfer and storage in structural precast building components on indoor environments
(2014)Knowledge about the heat transfer and storage in concrete components of the building envelope is vital in evaluating the environmental and energy performance of buildings. Providing sufficient thermal mass of the building ... -
Real-time monitoring framework to investigate the environmental and structural performance of buildings
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-12-20)Energy provides safety, comfort and mobility to people, and is essential for industrial, commercial and societal growth. However, generation and consumption of energy give rise of greenhouse gases and various air pollutants, ...
