Planning for a Changing Climate without Accurate Predictions

Parag Rastogi, Mohammad Emtiyaz Khan

Simulation is an informative tool to plan the design and renovation of engineering systems, but its use requires accurate inputs from the users. Inputs such as the unknown future operating conditions might be expected in a system’s lifetime, e.g., the futu ...

A digital workflow to quantify regenerative urban design in the context of a changing climate

Pietro Florio, Parag Rastogi, Emanuele Naboni

The regenerative approach to design goes beyond limiting the environmental impact of the built environment and towards the enrichment of the ecosystem, adaptation to climate change, and the improvement of human health. This concept is being applied to buil ...

Gaussian-Process-Based Emulators for Building Performance Simulation

Marilyne Andersen, Parag Rastogi, Mohammad Emtiyaz Khan

In this paper we present a novel emulator of a building simulator for the simulation-assisted design of high performance buildings. Our emulator is based on Gaussian-Process (GP) regression models. Such non-linear models are better suited than linear model ...

Robustesse de l'évaluation du potentiel solaire de formes urbaines différenciées

Marilyne Andersen, Giuseppe Peronato, Parag Rastogi

Le potentiel solaire a une importance primordiale dans la performance énergétique des bâtiments, car le soleil est normalement la principale source d’énergie renouvelable à disposition en milieu urbain. Pourtant, le potentiel solaire n’a pas une définition ...

Examining Building Design Decisions Under Long Term Weather Variability and Microclimatic Effects: A case-based exploratory study

Marilyne Andersen, Luisa Pastore, Parag Rastogi, Margaux Marie Valérie Peltier, Minu Agarwal

Thermal building simulation currently uses Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) data to guide the design decision-making process or for compliance with energy standards. TMY data usually excludes extremes and in many cases are gathered from microclimatic cont ...

Incorporating Climate Change Predictions in the Analysis of Weather-based Uncertainty

Marilyne Andersen, Parag Rastogi

This paper proposes randomly-generated synthetic time series incorporating climate change forecasts to quantify the variation in energy simulation due to weather inputs, i.e., Monte Carlo analysis for uncertainty and sensitivity quantification. The method ...

Embedding Stochasticity in Building Simulation Through Synthetic Weather Files

Marilyne Andersen, Parag Rastogi

This paper presents an attempt to create synthetic weather data for stochastic building simulation. The synthetic data are created entirely from the freely available Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) weather files using time series models and resampling. T ...
