Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
This project attempts to tackle the problem of analysing the heat demand of build- ings at a large (district or city) scale. Specifically, building data from Geneva is used as a case study while building an environment with suitable tools for a continued a ...
The research focuses on the problem of scheduling jobs in a single machine with sequence-dependent setup times and energy requirements in which jobs of multiple types arrive dynamically over time. A setup operation is required to change over the job types ...
The energy demand increases worldwide and due to the fact that fossil fuel is still dominating the energy mix, the corresponding CO2 emission becomes a more serious problem that threatens the global environment. The building sector is the largest energy co ...
The energy efficiency of residential buildings is a central issue in the widely discussed energy transition. This study investigates which factors influence homeowners´ decisions regarding the energy efficiency standard of their houses. Homeowners who buil ...
The aim of this paper is to analyse the benefits deriving from the replacement of the glazed façades of an office building located in Palermo (Sicily) with a new translucent BIPV envelope made of multifunctional glass block panels integrated with Dye-sensi ...
The European Union stresses the accent on the need of energy consumption and expenditure data relatedto housing stock (EP, 2010). Most of housing and living conditions databases of Member States investigatethe housing status of a concerned region through a ...
Currently, energy efficiency in buildings is a primary objective of energy policy at regional, national and international levels. On a local scale, this trend has been detected also in Switzerland, where almost 40% of energy consumption has been assumed to ...
Buildings account for almost 40% of energy consumption in European countries and hence are responsible for a significant part of greenhouse gas emissions. Recent regulations and standards (Minergie, Minergie P, etc.) are strongly encouraging more sustainab ...
This article presents a model within the sustainable machining paradigm. In general, the optimization of machining process for the minimum energy consumption alone does not have sufficient impetus for application in the manufacturing companies wherein prof ...
Evaluating the energy consumption of different design solutions during the design process is essential to reach energy targets. Conventionally, building energy performance is evaluated with energy simulations using a single input weather file (design or ty ...
