A SWOT framework to investigate the integration between building management systems and fault detection and diagnosis tools
(National University of Ireland Galway, 2013-07-01)
This paper presents a research work carried out under the umbrella of the CASCADE project, which is a European FP7 research project which is developing facility-specific measurement-based energy action plans for the airport ...
CASCADE methodology and tool: appliedICT for energy efficient airports
(World SB14 Barcelona, 2014-10-28)
This paper gives an overview on the CASCADE project, methodology and on a stakeholdercentered solution called the CASCADE Tool that integrates Fault Detection and Diagnosis (FDD)into
a comprehensive energy management ...
Community engaged learning: A building engineering case study
(Civil Engineering Research Association of Ireland (CERAI), 2020-08-28)
ABSTRACT: Community engaged learning is a form of experiential education with a civic underpinning. Community engaged
learning is embedded with the civil engineering curriculum at NUI Galway and is framed by a research ...
Building effectiveness communication ratios for improved building life cycle management
(International Building Performance Simulation Association (IBPSA), 2005-08-15)
Many existing building energy performance
assessment frameworks, quantifying and categorising
buildings post occupancy, offer limited feedback on
design decisions. An environment providing decision
makers with pertinent ...
Reduced order modelling of the thermal behaviour of an office space
(Infoscience EPFL Scientific Publications, 2013-09-04)
Reduced Order Models (ROMs) have proven to be a valid and efficient approach to model the thermal behaviour of building zones. The main issues associated with the use of zonal/lumped models are how to (1) divide the domain ...
Teaching value engineering as a tool for reinforcing applied creativity in a troubled AEC/FM industry: A case of Zambia
(American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE), 2003)
Conventional design methods that are taught to Engineers do not always take into account the practical constraints associated with resource availability and costs. For example a proposed community self-help constructed ...
Combining engineering and qualitative models to fault diagnosis in air handling units
(IOS Press, 2014-08-18)
This paper presents a methodology for model-based fault localization and identification that exploits both numerical (Modelica) models and a qualitative model-based approach to diagnosis. It has been applied to diagnosis ...
