Abstract The long term optimization of a district energy system is a computationally demanding task due to the large number of data points representing the energy demand profiles. In order to reduce the number of data points and therefore the computational ...
Global resource consumption has seen marked increases in the last century, in particular since the 1950s. In transforming these materials into products, food, infrastructure and energy functions for mobility and housing, significant environmental impacts a ...
This paper describes the City Energy Analyst (CEA), a computational framework for the analysis and optimization of energy systems in neighborhoods and city districts. The framework allows analyzing the energy, carbon and financial benefits of multiple urba ...
This thesis addresses the availability and environmentally optimal use of bioenergy. A life cycle perspective is adopted to consider the supply, the technical conversion, and the final use of bioenergy as well as its use for the substitution of fossil ener ...
The form and function of river deltas is intricately linked to the evolving structure of their channel networks, which controls how effectively deltas are nourished with sediments and nutrients.Understanding the coevolution of deltaic channels and their fl ...
The building sector is known as a major contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy consumption. These impacts are commonly evaluated by life cycle assessment (LCA), which assess the potential impacts of a building from the construction to the ...
