(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)A systemic approach for integrated urban energy planning and design can increase energy efficiency, the use of renewable energy sources and bioclimatic strategies to lower the energy footprint at building, district and ... -
Sustainable interventions in historic buildings: A developing decisionmaking tool
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Integrating multi-criteria approaches for reducing greenhouse gas emissions while, at the same time, ensuring long-term maintenance of existing buildings, is a challenge that needs to be faced by both the present and future ... -
Sustainable renovation of nursing homes in Norway: LCA and LCCA of low-impact dementia-friendly measures in Trondhjems Hospital
(Master thesis, 2023)European countries are facing social, architectural and environmental challenges. The population is increasingly over-aged and dependent due to demographic ageing. By 2050, 200,000 Norwegians will have dementia and need ... -
Symbiotic Rooftop Green Structures and its application at Saupstad center
(Master thesis, 2022)Med skiftende klima og progressiv miljøforringelse får urbant landbruk (UA) betydning som en naturbasert løsning for bærekraftige byer. Den fremmer ny forretningsmodell for bønder, innbyggerengasjement, miljømessige og ... -
Synthesis of Hollow Silica Nanospheres by Sacrificial Polystyrene Templates for Thermal Insulation Applications
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)Monodisperse polystyrene (PS) spheres with controllable size have been synthesized by a straight forward and simple procedure. The as-synthesized PS spheres have a typical diameter ranging from ~180 nm to ~900 nm, where a ... -
A Systematic Review of Urban Climate Research in Cold and Polar Climate Regions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Cities are at the forefront of the climate change issue and are responsible for about 39% of global carbon dioxide emissions. They can form their own climate which is often characterized by higher temperatures and pollution ... -
Temperature and thermal comfort in office spaces: measurements vs. simulations
(Chapter, 2019)A deviation between the calculated and the measured data of energy use in buildings (known as performance gap) has been extensively reported. The aim of this study is to identify the underlying causes of the deviation ... -
Temperature observations in Bologna, Italy, from 1715 to 1815: a comparison with other contemporary series and an overview of three centuries of changing climate
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The observations taken in Bologna, Italy, from 1715 to 1815, three times a day, with a number of thermometers (i.e., Stancari air thermometers, Little Florentine thermometer, Florentine stick thermometer and a number of ... -
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 ... -
Temporal analysis of the material flows and embodied greenhouse gas emissions of a neighborhood building stock
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Low‐energy building standards shift environmental impacts from the operational to the embodied emissions, making material efficiency (ME) important for climate mitigation. To help quantify the mitigation potential of ME ... -
A Temporal Perspective in Eco2 Building Design
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) sector has great potential and responsibility for reducing its considerable resource consumption and high share of global emissions. However, economic factors are often ... -
Ten questions concerning co-simulation for performance prediction of advanced building envelopes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Advanced building envelopes (ABEs) are innovative integrated systems that aim to increase the sustainability of buildings by providing flexible and efficient energy management solutions while safeguarding healthy and ... -
Teori møter praksis – er miljøriktige bygg økonomisk gjennomførbare? Scenarioanalyse av konstruksjonsvalg på Ydalir
(ZEN Report;, Research report, 2022)Hovedutfordringen for ZEN pilotområdet Ydalir er å sikre en riktig tilnærming til målet om reduksjon av klimagassutslipp slik at de totalt sett oppnår en balanse mellom samfunnshensyn, miljø og økonomi, for både utbygger ... -
