Risk of incorrect choices due to uncertainty in BPS evaluations of conceptual-stage neighbourhood-scale building designs

Marilyne Andersen, Luisa Pastore, Minu Agarwal

At the conceptual stage, building performance simulation (BPS) based evaluations are being increasingly used for tasks such as ranking of competing massing design proposals. However, such conceptual stage evaluations suffer from information deficiency in b ...

Uncertainty analysis of polymer-based capacitive relative humidity sensor at negative temperatures and low humidity levels

Sandro Carrara, Andromachi Tsirou, Amar Kapic

Capacitive relative humidity sensors, widely used in industrial and environmental applications, should be interchangeable and ideally have parametrizable response to relative humidity changes. While the effects of temperatures in the range between 0 degree ...

ELSEVIER SCI LTD2023

Endogenous and exogenous uncertainties exert significant influences on energy planning. In this study, we propose a systematic methodology to excavate the uncertainty space, by combining mix-integer linear programming (MILP), Monte Carlo simulation, and ma ...

Comparison of momentum transport in matched hydrogen and deuterium H-mode plasmas in ASDEX Upgrade

Basil Duval, Emiliano Fable, Giovanni Tardini

Advanced momentum transport analysis is used to study matched hydrogen (H) and deuterium (D) plasmas in the core of ASDEX Upgrade. The aim is to validate gyrokinetic theory and assess a possible isotope dependence. The methodology extracts momentum diffusi ...

A Whale's Tail - Finding the Right Whale in an Uncertain World

Devis Tuia

Explainable machine learning and uncertainty quantification have emerged as promising approaches to check the suitability and understand the decision process of a data-driven model, to learn new insights from data, but also to get more information about th ...

PlaceNet: A multi-scale semantic-aware model for visual loop closure detection

Hussein Fadl Hassan Hassan Osman

Loop closure detection helps simultaneous localization and mapping systems reduce map and state uncertainty via recognizing previously visited places along the path of a mobile robot. However, visual loop closure detection is susceptible to scenes with dyn ...

PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2022

A well-designed ventilated wall that incorporates air-space behind cladding can reduce energy use for conditioning buildings by adding a thermally resistive layer. The scarcity of thermal performance data and standardized test methods is a particular barri ...
