Building dynamic thermal model calibration using the Energy House facility at Salford (2019)
Journal Article
Ji, Y., Lee, A., & Swan, W. (2019). Building dynamic thermal model calibration using the Energy House facility at Salford. Energy and Buildings, 191(May 19), 224-234. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2019.03.001

Thermal modelling tools have widely been used in the construction industry at the design stage, either for new build or retrofitting existing buildings, providing data for informed decision-making. The accuracy of thermal models has been subject of m... Read More about Building dynamic thermal model calibration using the Energy House facility at Salford.

Technical support framework for sustainable management of transboundary water resources (2019)
Journal Article
Scholz, M., & Al-Faraj, F. (2019). Technical support framework for sustainable management of transboundary water resources. Environmental Engineering and Management Journal (Online), 18(3), 707-718. https://doi.org/10.30638/eemj.2019.064

Sustainable management of transboundary rivers, especially in water-scarce regions is increasingly becoming more challenging
due to the collective adverse impact of upstream development and climate change on transboundary scale. Two major tributarie... Read More about Technical support framework for sustainable management of transboundary water resources.

Design Implications of Model-Generated Urban Data (2019)
Journal Article
Jankovic, L. (2019). Design Implications of Model-Generated Urban Data. #Journal not on list, 16(2), 50-63. https://doi.org/10.17831/enq%3Aarcc.v16i2.1061

The staggering complexity of urban environment and long timescales in the causal mechanisms prevent designers to fully understand the implications of their design interventions. In order to investigate these causal mechanisms and provide measurable t... Read More about Design Implications of Model-Generated Urban Data.

Renaturing a microclimate : the impact of greening a neighbourhood on indoor thermal comfort during a heatwave in Manchester, UK (2019)
Journal Article
Taleghani, M., Marshall, A., Fitton, R., & Swan, W. (2019). Renaturing a microclimate : the impact of greening a neighbourhood on indoor thermal comfort during a heatwave in Manchester, UK. Solar Energy, 182, 245-255. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.solener.2019.02.062

Higher air temperatures in large cities like Manchester, UK, reduce human thermal comfort. In this paper, the impact of land cover on microclimate, and consequently on indoor thermal comfort is studied. Through different stages, field measurements an...

Small unmanned aerial model accuracy for photogrammetrical fluvial bathymetric survey (2019)
Journal Article
Entwistle, N., & Heritage, G. (2019). Small unmanned aerial model accuracy for photogrammetrical fluvial bathymetric survey. Journal of Applied Remote Sensing, 13(1), 014523. https://doi.org/10.1117/1.JRS.13.014523

Fluvial systems offer a challenging and varied environment for topographic survey, displaying a rapidly varying morphology, vegetation assemblage and degree of submergence. Traditionally theodolite or GPS based systems have been used to capture cross... Read More about Small unmanned aerial model accuracy for photogrammetrical fluvial bathymetric survey.

Sustainability of bridge maintenance (2019)
Journal Article
Balogun, T., Tomor, A., Lamond, J., Gouda, H., & Booth, C. (2019). Sustainability of bridge maintenance. Proceedings of the ICE - Bridge Engineering, 172(1), 54-64. https://doi.org/10.1680/jbren.15.00027

Bridge maintenance activities are important to consider within sustainable development due to the cost and environmental impact associated with various maintenance activities. Comparisons have been made between different bridge structural forms, base... Read More about Sustainability of bridge maintenance.
