Decoupling the thermal and visual performance in glazing systems: a novel methodology for the numerical investigation of the case of double skin facade systems
(Master thesis, 2019)Dynamic transparent envelope technologies such as double skin facades (DSFs) have been used for a long time as an efficient building envelope system aiming to reduce building energy consumption and indoor air quality. ... -
Defining an algorithm for the design of a Climate-adaptive studio cabin in Norway. From form-finding to Prefabrication
(Master thesis, 2022)This study presents an algorithm based on the parametric design method to generate a form that has the best performing options regarding building energy demand, occupants' comfort, and view percentage to the sky, inspired ... -

Definition and Assessment of Advanced Control Strategies for Double Skin Façades with Building Performance Simulation
(Master thesis, 2022)Den økende miljøpåvirkningen fra AEC-sektoren er en av de mest utfordrende oppgavene som byggebransjen nå står overfor. Av denne grunn er designerne nå oppfordret til å finne nye teknologier og innovative prosesser for å ... -
Density and Spatial Quality: High Density and Perceived Spatial Quality on the Transition from Public to Private Spaces
(Chapter, 2012)This paper proposes an unconventional approach to the concept of sustainability in the built environment. The central argument is that spatial quality is a key aspect in the sustainability of urban environments. The main ... -
Design and in-field testing of a multi-level system for continuous subjective occupant feedback on indoor climate
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Information gaps between the building and the occupant often lead to sub-optimal building performance, impairing the efforts towards more sustainable buildings. New information and communication technology creates new ... -
Design and performance predictions of plus energy neighbourhoods – Case studies of demonstration projects in four different European climates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The article presents the design of four plus energy neighbourhood demonstration projects located in different climate zones in Europe. The demo projects are a part of the Horizon 2020 project ‘syn.ikia’, which aims to ... -
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 ... -
Designing the design of experiments (DOE) – An investigation on the influence of different factorial designs on the characterization of complex systems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Although a general set of guidelines and procedures for performing the design of experiments (DOE) exists, the literature lacks a recommended course of action for finding and selecting the optimal design of experiments ... -
Determination of the energy performance indicator of kindergartens through design, measured and recommended parameters
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Research analyzed the influence of parameters derived from urban planning, architecture, building materials and technology, building physics, users and patterns of use, the measured thermal performance of the envelope and ... -
Developing an Assessment Framework for Social Sustainability within Neighborhoods
(Master thesis, 2022)dag har bærekraft oppnådd bred aksept i alle aspekter av samfunnet. Til tross for nyere trender i rammeverket for bærekraftsvurdering og verktøy som LEED og BREEAM for bygninger og nabolag for å adressere miljømessige og ... -
Developing low-conductance window frames: Capabilities and limitations of current window heat transfer design tools - State-of-the-art review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008)While window frames typically represent 20—30% of the overall window area, their impact on the total window heat transfer rates may be much larger. This effect is even greater in low-conductance (highly insulating) windows ... -
Development and experimental investigation of a novel combined solar cooker and dryer unit
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Solar cookers and dryers are normally used as separate units due to different operating temperature requirements for cooking and drying of food products. A unique design of a compounded solar cooker and dryer unit is ... -
Development and validation of a Monte Carlo-based numerical model for solar analyses in urban canyon configurations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Highly- and retro-reflective materials have recently been investigated and proposed as a new urban coating solution to reduce the so-called urban heat island effect. The present study aims at providing a numerical model ... -
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 ... -
Development of a Wearable Device to Evaluate the Non-visual Effects of Light in an Office Environment
(Master thesis, 2023)Light and lighting is an important factor in our built environment. Besides the visual impacts of light, healthy light design focuses on the non-visual effects of light. For millions of years humans have evolved with the ... -
Diagonalstilt gratsperre i eldre Norske valmkonstruksjoner
(Bachelor thesis, 2019)I det siste er det blitt funnet eksempler av en hittil ukjent type gratsperre. Denne typen karakteriseres av et firkantet tverrsnitt hvor diagonalen står i lodd. Den ligger symmetrisk mellom de to takflater og ingen av ... -
