Understanding our heritage : monitoring of energy and environmental performance of traditional terraced houses of Northern England (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Gonzalez, A., Roberts, B., Fitton, R., Swan, W., & Elkadi, H. (2016, October). Understanding our heritage : monitoring of energy and environmental performance of traditional terraced houses of Northern England. Presented at EECHB Energy Efficiency and Comfort of Historic Buildings, Brussels

Existing buildings play a key role in the achievement of the ambitious energy saving and greenhouse gas reduction targets that Europe has fixed for 2020 and 2050. Research has demonstrated that the impact in terms of decrease of energy use and CO2 wi...

Influence of different atria types on energy efficiency and thermal comfort of square plan high-rise buildings in semi-arid climate (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Jaberansari, M., & Elkadi, H. (2016, August). Influence of different atria types on energy efficiency and thermal comfort of square plan high-rise buildings in semi-arid climate. Presented at International Conference on Energy, Environment, and Economics, Edinburgh

Building sector is responsible for at least 40% of energy use globally in both developed or developing countries such as the middle east region (UNEP, 2009) (Francesca Cappellettia et al., 2015) and almost 33% of its energy is known to be used by HVA...

The maturation of a low-impact building : post occupancy evaluation over 2 years (2016)
Presentation / Conference
Al-Maiyah, S., Martionson, D., & Elkadi, H. (2016, July). The maturation of a low-impact building : post occupancy evaluation over 2 years. Presented at 32th International Conference on Passive and Low Energy Architecture., Los Angeles

Post occupancy evaluations (POEs) are regularly carried out in various types of building to assess whether the building is meeting the demand of its users and to collect information that may be useful for design of similar buildings in the future. Th... Read More about The maturation of a low-impact building : post occupancy evaluation over 2 years.
