Calibrated whole building energy simulation: An evidence-based methodology
(2011-01)Climate change, driven by global energy consumption, is one of the major challenges to humanity today. The buildings sector consumes a significant portion of global energy resources and much of this is due to inefficient ... -
Formal calibration methodology relating to CFD models of naturally ventilated internal environments
(2013-08-16)The building sector is responsible for 40% of total global energy consumption. Half of the energy consumed by buildings relates to heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Natural ventilation can provide ... -
Modelling a batch biofilm passive aeration process using an activated sludge process and a biofilm process
(2015-05-29)Recently, mathematical modelling of wastewater treatment plants has become a widely used tool for planning, designing, optimising and evaluating wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). While wastewater models can provide ... -
Modelling of Inhalation Exposures to Pharmaceutical Agents
(2011-09-09)Assessment of worker's exposure is becoming increasingly critical in the pharmaceutical industry as drugs of higher potency are being manufactured. Also the batch nature of operations often makes it difficult to obtain ... -
The optical development and calibration of the Galway Astronomical Stokes Polarimeter (GASP) as a multi-detector system for the polarimetric observations of variable optical sources
(2014-06-03)Polarised light from astronomical targets can yield a wealth of information about their source radiation mechanisms, and about the geometry of the scattered light regions. To date, stellar observations have focused, for ...
