DOI: 10.1016/j.enbuild.2018.12.012
Abstract: Abstract This paper addresses the question of identifying the time-window in short-term past from which the information regarding the future occupant’s window opening actions and resulting window states in buildings can be predicted. The addressed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2017.02.008
Abstract: Abstract Complete subduction of an oceanic plate results in slab-window opening. A key uncertainty in this process is whether the higher heat flux and asthenospheric upwelling conventionally associated with slab-window opening generate a detectable topographic… read more here.

Modeling Occupant Window Behavior in Hospitals—A Case Study in a Maternity Hospital in Beijing, China
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Sustainability"
DOI: 10.3390/su15118606
Abstract: Nowadays, relevant data collected from hospital buildings remain insufficient because hospital buildings often have stricter environmental requirements resulting in more limited data access than other building types. Additionally, existing window-opening behavior models were mostly developed… read more here.
