(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)NREL 5MW reference turbine, which is a popular, realistic and standardized industrial scale offshore turbine model, is used in this work for understanding the associated flow-complexities and for testing models. For such ... -
A mechanical and environmental assessment and comparison of basalt fibre reinforced polymer (BFRP) rebar and steel rebar in concrete beams
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This paper compares holistically the mechanical and environmental performance of basalt fibre reinforced polymer (BFRP) rebar against conventional steel rebar in concrete beams. This assessment involves material testing ... -
A parametric tool for the assessment of operational energy use, embodied energy and embodied material emissions in building
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Current European legislation calls for the abatement of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through better building design and technological solutions, in order to reduce operational energy use, embodied energy and embodied ... -
A probabilistic-based approach for predicting mould growth in timber building envelopes: Comparison of three mould models
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This paper applies a probabilistic-based approach as a methodology to analyze and compare the mould growth computations’ results from three different mould models. This approach, instead of the conventional deterministic ... -
A step towards reduced order modelling of flow characterized by wakes using Proper Orthogonal Decomposition
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)High fidelity simulations of flow can be quite demanding, involving up to O(106) to O(109) degrees of freedom, and several hours or days of computational time, even on powerful parllel architectures. These techniques become ... -
Advanced transparent facades: market available products and associated challenges in building performance simulation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The starting point of this study is to provide a non-exhaustive overview of relevant transparent advanced facade technologies available on the market and suited to Nordic climates. A corresponding literature review is ... -
Air-Filled Nanopore Based High-Performance Thermal Insulation Materials
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)State-of-the-art thermal insulation solutions like vacuum insulation panels (VIP) and aerogels have low thermal conductivity, but their drawbacks may make them unable to be the thermal insulation solutions that will ... -
Analysis of reduction of energy demands for Zero Emission Renovated Office Building by using thermal mass and ventilative cooling
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Zero emission buildings (ZEB) are characterized by high levels of insulation and air tightness. Powerhouse Kjørbo is the first Zero Emission Renovated Office Building in Norway. In 2013-2014 the building from 1985 underwent ... -
Analysis of the impact resolution has on load matching in the Norwegian context
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Generation of energy at building level has an increasing interest in Norway, as in rest of Europe. Load matching is the correlation between the buildings generation and load, which in most cases aims at optimization of the ... -
