Procedures for automated building energy model production for urban and early design
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)This research is meant to facilitate a wider use of energy simulation in urban and schematic building design. The major contribution is the development and validation of software algorithms that can manage, automatically ... -
Integrating interactive evolutionary exploration and parametric structural design
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Current modeling and analysis tools are extremely powerful and allow one to generate and analyze virtually any structural shape. However, most of them do not allow designers to integrate structural performance as an objective ... -
Demonstration of HVAC chiller control for power grid frequency regulation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Secondary frequency regulation is a necessary electric grid ancillary service that balances electric power system supply and demand on short time intervals of seconds to minutes. Commercial HVAC chillers may be well ...
