Catalogue data
Abstract | Within three elective courses the students need to fulfill an elective work (seminar work). Elective works serve the independent way of dealing with the contents of the according elective course. |
Objective | The aim of the elective work is to gain comprehensive insight in specific issues related to urban physics and low-energy buildings. These issues may concern: wind & thermal comfort in the built environment, heat islands, cross-ventilation, driving rain, pollution dispersion, new technologies for low-energy buildings, design of building systems, optimal control. The work may include computational modelling and prototype testing in laboratory. |
Content | The contents of these elective studies are expected to link to the subject matter of the attended course. |
Prerequisites / Notice | It's imperative that the topic of the work is discussed with and accepted by the chair in advance. |
