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.

Decarbonising our transport system: Vehicle use behaviour analysis to assess the potential of transitioning to electric mobility (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Waldron, J., Rodrigues, L., Gillott, M., Naylor, S., & Shipman, R. (2020). Decarbonising our transport system: Vehicle use behaviour analysis to assess the potential of transitioning to electric mobility. In J. Rodríguez Álvarez, & J. C. Soares Gonçalves (Eds.), Planning Post Carbon Cities: 35th PLEA Conference on Passive and Low Energy Architecture, A Coruña, 1st-3rd September 2020: Proceedings (689-694). https://doi.org/10.17979/spudc.9788497497947

The transport sector is responsible for over 20% of the global carbon emissions. One of the strategies to reduce its impact includes transitioning to electric vehicles (EV). However, this represents several challenges to existing cities, such as the...

Three unobtrusive domestic occupancy measurement technologies under qualitative review (2013)
Journal Article
Naghiyev, E., Gillott, M., & WILSON, R. (2014). Three unobtrusive domestic occupancy measurement technologies under qualitative review. Energy and Buildings, 69, 507-514. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2013.11.033

Almost one third of the UK's total energy is consumed by the domestic sector. Occupancy measurement could have the potential to save significant amounts of that energy, either instantly via a home automation system or retrospectively via post-occupan...
