The Problem of Ontology in Peter Eisenman’s Architectural Theory
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2023:385, Doctoral thesis, 2023)English summary Peter Eisenman is one of the leading architects and architectural theorists of the second half of the 20th century. This dissertation seeks to analyze his assumptions about the ontology of architectural ... -
Circularity evaluation as guidance for building design
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Resource scarcity and global warming call for ambitious strategies in the construction sector to meet the ever-growing demand for indoor spaces with minimal resource consumption and positive environmental impacts. In line ... -
A method for generating complete EV charging datasets and analysis of residential charging behaviour in a large Norwegian case study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Electric vehicles (EVs) are part of the solution to achieve global carbon emissions reduction targets, and the number of EVs is increasing worldwide. Increased demand for EV charging can challenge the grid capacity of power ... -
Vestlia borettslag transformation: Element-based energy upgrade
(Master thesis, 2023)Vestlia Borettslag er et borettslag som består av 16 like boligblokker som ble bygget på 70-tallet og som har gjennomgått en rekke renoveringer siden ferdigstillelsen. Basert på en tidligere mulighetsstudie fra 2021, ... -
Vestlia Borettslag Transformation. Wooden Refurbishment and Extension: Transforming 1970s Housing in Trondheim
(Master thesis, 2023)Norway currently faces the challenge of outdated and energy-inefficient apartment blocks, with approximately 350,000 units lacking elevators, according to NBBL.To address these issues and create sustainable housing options, ... -
Evaluation of Early-Phase Building LCA Tools
(Master thesis, 2023)The construction sector contributes significantly to anthropogenic climate change through greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Therefore, it is important to reduce operational and embodied emissions from structures. The thesis ... -
Measuring the Impact of Walking Environments on Brain Activation: Results from an fNIRS Pilot Study
(Chapter, 2023)Studying the impact of built urban environments on pedestrians' walking experience can improve our understanding of the environmental factors that influence perceived walkability. This can contribute to the design of ... -
Development of a reduced-order thermal model to support retrofit analysis of residential building clusters
(Master thesis, 2023)This study aims to introduce a method for retrofitting old buildings with different situations and help with retrofit decision-making and reduce the overall (embodied and operational) emissions during the life span of a ... -
Tittel: Integrering av klimagassvurderinger og -beregninger knyttet til materialer i tidligfase prosjektering Undertittel:Med implementering av verktøyet "LCA Design Tool" og skript for etablering av 3D modeller
(Master thesis, 2023)Det er i tidligfasen av byggeprosjekter det største potensiale for klimagassreduksjon fra materialer ligger, men det krever «riktig miljøprosjektering» for å kunne redusere byggets avtrykk. Manglende kunnskap om metoder ... -
Parametric simulation as a tool for deep learning experience in Building science
(Master thesis, 2023)En verden i stadig endring på flere områder krever bygninger av en tilpasningsevne og motstandsdyktighet som gjør designprosjekter og deres mål mer komplekse enn noen gang (1). Å løse disse komplekse oppgavene krever ... -
Exploring the Integration of Embodied Carbon Assessment in Architectural Design: An Analysis of Current Practices
(Master thesis, 2023)Materialene som brukes til bygninger står globalt for ca. 28 % av de årlige karbondioksidutslippene i byggesektoren. Sporing av disse innebygde karbonutslippene i et byggeprosjekt gjøres ved å gjennomføre en livssyklusvurdering ... -
Climate adaptability and robustness of vernacular architectures.
(Master thesis, 2023)This master's thesis explores the adaptability and robustness of a specific kind of vernacular in Norway's cold climate. Using digital tools such as Rhino and Grasshopper, a parametric model is created to simulate under ... -
Social and architectural values in sustainable plus-energy buildings and neighbourhoods
(Master thesis, 2023)The importance of creating well-designed buildings and neighbourhoods is widely recognised, as is the necessity to focus on environmental, economic, and social sustainability in order to achieve good architecture. While ... -
Template for architectural and energy advice for retrofitting heavyweight non-residential heritage buildings in Norway: A trial demo using an ARV (Climate Positive Circular Communities) project case as reference
(Master thesis, 2023)En økning i klimagassutslippene har ført til bekymring for klimaendringer, noe som har fått ulike samfunnsområder til å legge om sin virksomhet. Den norske byggebransjen har tatt i bruk bærekraftig metoder for å redusere ... -
Design for disassembly in life cycle assessment and circularity evaluation.
(Master thesis, 2023)While the world is facing material scarcity crises, the consumption of material resources is increasing every day. With the building sector being one of the largest consumers of raw materials, reuse of materials and therefore ... -
