DOI: 10.1016/j.enbuild.2019.109446
Abstract: Abstract Residential buildings are typically associated with high energy consumption, especially because of air-conditioning (AC) usage. Occupant behaviour can noticeably affect how an AC operates and thereby contribute to the increasing energy consumption. This problem… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.erss.2021.101959
Abstract: Abstract Indoor environmental quality, socio-psychological aspects, as well as contextual and personal factors, can be considered as multi-domain drivers for occupant behaviour (OB). Therefore, this study relies on a survey that bridges the gap between… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/17512549.2017.1421099
Abstract: ABSTRACT Occupant behaviour is now widely recognized as a major factor in the disparity between predicted and measured building performance. Stochastic models are a convenient way to model the rational, diverse and complex nature of… read more here.
