Product of a research cooperation between three Swiss universities - the Ecole polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne's School of Architecture, the School of Architecture and Technology in Fribourg, and the University of Fribourg - the Smart Living Lab is a re ...
Wildfires and associated emissions of particulate matter pose significant environmental and health concerns. In this study we propose tools to evaluate building resilience to extreme episodes of outdoor particulate matter using a combination of indoor and ...
Expectations for high performance green buildings have been evolving over the last four decades. Green certification systems define, recognize, and demonstrate leadership in addressing building problems related to people and the environment. These systems ...
Voluntary green-rating systems exist in different forms worldwide to certify the sustainability of residential and commercial buildings and help national policies promote energy-efficient design practices. Despite the general assumption that sustainable bu ...
The planning support system URBio is demonstrated via two case studies. Both case studies are located in the canton of Geneva. The first case study is a greenfield planning project, where the goal is to build a new district on former agricultural land. The ...
A transition towards smart buildings is one of the challenges of the 21st century. To achieve this goal, the use of smart sensors and smart appliances can be crucial. Although research about linking real-time monitoring and the operation mode of building a ...
Optimization of building design has the promise to substantially reduce building energy consumption. Though typically considered in early design, we demonstrate in this paper that optimal re-design of building layouts has the potential to reduce energy use ...
Understanding the underlying structure of building occupant dynamics is crucial to improving the effectiveness and energy efficiency of commercial buildings, as occupants fundamentally drive building design and operation. In current practice, we largely ac ...
In this work we present ContainEnergy, a new performance evaluation and profiling tool that uses software containers to perform application runtime assessment, providing energy and performance profiling data. It is focused on energy efficiency for next gen ...
