Characterising Brazilian Housing through an Investigation of Policies, Architecture and Statistics (2021)
Journal Article
Tubelo, R., Rodrigues, L., & Gillott, M. (2021). Characterising Brazilian Housing through an Investigation of Policies, Architecture and Statistics. Journal of Architecture, 26(2), 191-211. https://doi.org/10.1080/13602365.2021.1895279

Defining common housing characteristics such as typology, floor areas and occupancy rates can be challenging in many countries because of the prevalence of self-built and/or self-promoted accommodation. Yet, for researchers, designers and policy make... Read More about Characterising Brazilian Housing through an Investigation of Policies, Architecture and Statistics.

Thermo-mechanical Dynamics of Nanoimprinting Anti-Reflective Structures onto Small-core Mid- IR Chalcogenide Fibers (2021)
Journal Article
