Advances in Building Energy Research |
Volume 1:
** Presents the recent progress and state-of-the-art in the environmental performance of buildings
** Provides a unique forum by bringing together invited contributions from the foremost international experts
** Annually published and peer-reviewed, an invaluable resource for architects, building engineers, environmental engineers, industry professionals, students, teachers and researchers in building science
Advances in Building Energy Research offers state-of-the-art information on the environmental science and performance of buildings, linking new technologies and methodologies with the latest research on systems, simulations and standards. As stringently reviewed as a journal but with the breadth of a book, it brings together invited contributions from the foremost international experts on energy efficiency and environment quality of buildings. Spanning a broad range of technical subjects, this is a must-have reference on global developments in the field of building energy research, suitable for architects and building engineers, environmental engineers, industry professionals, students, teachers and researchers in building science, technical libraries and laboratories.
