Existence and smoothness of the Navier-Stokes equation using a Boundary Integral representation (2023)
Conference Proceeding
Chadwick, E. (in press). Existence and smoothness of the Navier-Stokes equation using a Boundary Integral representation.

In the current study we determine existence and smoothness of the Navier-Stokes equation as described in the Millennium problem [1]. This considers an exterior space-time domain where the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation and continuity equation...

Surface condensation risk pre- and post-retrofit at suspended timber ground floors and external wall junctions (2023)
Conference Proceeding
Glew, D., Thomas, F., Tsang, C., & Miles Shenton, D. (2023). Surface condensation risk pre- and post-retrofit at suspended timber ground floors and external wall junctions. . https://doi.org/10.14293/ICMB230016

Insulating below suspended timber ground floors affects heat transfer at the ground floor to external wall junction, which can affect the risk of surface condensation occurring. In this project, we investigate the impact of installing mineral wool i...

The effect of brick properties on hygrothermal performance of solid walls (2023)
Conference Proceeding
Tsang, C., Thomas, F., Hardy, A., & Glew, D. (2023). The effect of brick properties on hygrothermal performance of solid walls. . https://doi.org/10.14293/icmb230018

To construct buildings of the future that are both energy-efficient and moisture-resilient, it is critical to have an in-depth understanding of the varying characteristics of brick properties. This study sampled eight brick-cores taken from solid wal... Read More about The effect of brick properties on hygrothermal performance of solid walls.

Managing User Requirements in Social Housing Upgrading (2023)
Conference Proceeding
Awwal, S., Tzortzopoulos, P., Kagioglou, M., & Soliman-Junior, J. (2023). Managing User Requirements in Social Housing Upgrading. In Proceedings of the 31st Annual Conference of the International Group for Lean Construction (1072-1081). https://doi.org/10.24928/2023/0167

User requirement management is essential to improve value generation in construction projects. Requirements management is also vital in the context of social housing upgrading/retrofit projects, as such projects generally involve a poor consideration...

Comparing Object Recognition Models and Studying Hyperparameter Selection for the Detection of Bolts (2023)
Conference Proceeding
Bolton, T., Bass, J., Gaber, T., & Mansouri, T. (2023). Comparing Object Recognition Models and Studying Hyperparameter Selection for the Detection of Bolts. In Natural Language Processing and Information Systems (186-200). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-35320-8_13

The commonly-used method of bolting, used to secure parts of apparatus together, relies on the bolts having a sufficient preload force in order to the ensure mechanical strength. Failing to secure bolted connections to a suitable torque rating can ha... Read More about Comparing Object Recognition Models and Studying Hyperparameter Selection for the Detection of Bolts.

A Data Brokering Architecture to Guarantee Nonfunctional Requirements in IoT Applications (2023)
Conference Proceeding
