Numerical studies of displacement natural ventilation in multi-storey buildings connected to an atrium (2007)
Journal Article
multi-storey buildings connected to an atrium. Building Services Engineering Research and Technology, 28(3), 207-222. https://doi.org/10.1177/0143624407077190

This paper describes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations used to investigate displacement natural ventilation in simple multi-storey spaces connected to an atrium. The purpose of the work is to demonstrate the potential of CFD for modellin... Read More about Numerical studies of displacement natural ventilation in multi-storey buildings connected to an atrium.

Comparison study of traditional and contemporary housing design with reference to Tripoli, Libya (2007)
Thesis
Amer, A. Comparison study of traditional and contemporary housing design with reference to Tripoli, Libya. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

Over the course of the last few decades, most developing countries, including Libya,
have experienced a rapid economic growth and associated increase in population.
This growth has led to a substantial increase in the implementation of contemporary... Read More about Comparison study of traditional and contemporary housing design with reference to Tripoli, Libya.

Knowledge informed decision making in the building lifecycle : an application to the design of a water drainage system (2007)
Journal Article
Boddy, S., Rezgui, Y., Wetherill, M., & Cooper, G. (2007). Knowledge informed decision making in the building lifecycle : an application to the design of a water drainage system. Automation in Construction, 16(5), 596-606. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.autcon.2006.10.001

Critical decisions which influence the sustainability of a construction project are made in a pressurised, time-critical environment. These decisions must be supported and informed by knowledge resources, with the reasons for these decisions feeding...
