Structural Simulation Models That Build Themselves (2001)
Journal Article
Jankovic, L., Jankovic, S., Chan, A. H. C., & Little, G. H. (2001). Structural Simulation Models That Build Themselves. International journal of simulation: systems, science & technology (Print), 1(1-2), 35-43

The paper reports on creation of analogue models of structures in virtual reality, using an emergent, or
bottom-up approach, inspired by laws of Complexity. This approach focuses on component based modelling using
fundamental laws of physics. The c... Read More about Structural Simulation Models That Build Themselves.

Which is better: Gas or electricity? (1994)
Journal Article
Jankovic, L. (1994). Which is better: Gas or electricity?. Building Research and Information, 22(5), 261-268. https://doi.org/10.1080/09613219408727399

An important message from the presented results is that neither of the systems is better or worse. The suitability of gas and electric heating depends on the circumstances where these systems are applied. Both electricity and gas have advantages and...

The limits of intelligent office refurbishment (1993)
Journal Article
Boyd, D., & Jankovic, L. (1993). The limits of intelligent office refurbishment. Property Management, 11(2), 102-113. https://doi.org/10.1108/02637479310026659

Examines the context of design of intelligent buildings. Considers the potential to create intelligent buildings during refurbishment in the light of refurbishment limits – quality and quantity of space, appearance of building. IT and services distri...

Variable volume, variable flow rate, radiation controlled solar heating and storage (1986)
Conference Proceeding
Jesch, L., Greeves, T., & Jankovic, L. (1986). Variable volume, variable flow rate, radiation controlled solar heating and storage. In INTERSOL 85 proceedings of the Ninth Biennial Congress of the International Solar Energy Society (98-102). https://doi.org/10.1016/b978-0-08-033177-5.50027-2

Substantial performance benefits are indicated by the simulation results of a solar heating and storage system using the new concept of a combined operation known as the variable volume, variable flow rate, solar radiation controlled (VV-VF-SC) syste...
