Demand-controlled ventilation in schools: Influence of base ventilation rates on subjective symptoms, perceived indoor environment and young adults' learning performance
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Conference object, 2021)The ventilation airflow rates in a demand-controlled ventilation strategy typically vary between a base (Vmin) and a maximum ventilation rate (Vmax). Classrooms have relatively short but intense hours of occupancy and a ... -
Design of Reinforced Concrete Isolated Footings Under Axial Loading with Artificial Neural Networks
(EUROGEN;Proceedings of the 14th International Conference on Evolutionary and Deterministic Methods For Design, Optimization and Control, Conference object, 2021)In engineering practice, the design of structural elements is a repetitive task that has proven to be difficult to fully automate. This is mainly because of the complex relations of the design variables and the multiple ... -
Effect of filter type in ventilation systems on NO2 concentrations in classrooms
(Springer Proceedings in Energy;Cold Climate HVAC 2018 - Sustainable Buildings in Cold Climates, Conference object, 2018-12-12)This study was conducted to assess how different filter types in the ventilation system affect the indoor NO2 concentrations. Measurements were carried out in two classrooms and air intakes in a primary school located in ... -
Evaluation of a novel 3-pipe solution for hydronic heat distribution in passive-house standard apartment buildings
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Conference object, 2021)The energy efficiency of new buildings in Norway has been steadily improved over the last decades, but with less heating, hydronic heating systems have adversely increased in price. Lessening electric power consumption in ... -
Evaluation of human induced vibrations in Kjærra Bridge
(Proceedings of the International Conference on Structural Dynamic, EURODYN;EURODYN 2020; Proceedings of the XI International Conference on Structural Dynamics, Volume 1, Conference object, 2020)The users of the 132-meter-long Kjærra Bridge in Larvik, Norway, noticed severe lateral vibrations due to pedestrian loading on the opening day in 2001. During the period that the bridge was designed, there were no clear ... -
Evaluation of measurement techniques for modelling buildings in energy simulation and labelling tool
