This thesis investigates the restoration and structural reinforcement of a historically protected 19th-century residential building on the island of Hydra, Greece. Undertaken within the strict constraints of Greek heritage law (ΦΕΚ 594Δ/1978), the project aims to enhance structural safety and environmental …

As part of the 'Knowledge session 2 - system integration' on NEF, this presentation was held on the impact of linepacking strategies for biomethane integration.

This deliverable is one of the results of the project Research on Energy Data Utilization for Carbon Emission Decline by Heat pumps and Efficiency, while Assuring Thermal Comfort Achievement in Residential Buildings (REDUCEDHEATCARB). This deliverable documents the real-world validation of the REDUCEDHEATCARB …

Agent-based modeling (ABM) is a widely used method for evaluating demand response (DR) strategies. To comprehensively assess the impact of DR strategies on a district cooling system, the integration of building managers’ DR behavior is essential. However, most ABM studies focus on technical optimization …

Project Presentatie aan de Groningse gedeputeerde energie Henk Emmens en de Nedersaksische minister voor Europese en Regionale Ontwikkeling voor Europese Samenwerking Wiebke Osigus over CityLogistics2.0.

Dealing with and maintaining high-quality standards in the design and construction phases is challenging, especially for on-site construction. Issues like improper implementation of building components and poor communication can widen the gap between design specifications and actual conditions. To prevent …

An important step towards improving performance while reducing weight and maintenance needs is the integration of composite materials into mechanical and aerospace engineering. This subject explores the many aspects of composite application, from basic material characterization to state-of-the-art advances …

From the start of the energy transition is has been believed that the development of wind power as a renewable source of electricity was vital for reaching the climate goals related to the decarbonization of the energy sector. The LCOE variable is globally applied when comparing the cost for the use …

Wind turbines are usually clustered in wind farms which causes the downstream turbines to operate in the turbulent wakes of upstream turbines. As turbulence is directly related to increased fatigue loads, knowledge of the turbulence in the wake and its evolution are important. Therefore, the main objective …
