Journal Article
Zhang, L., Wilson, R., Sumner, M., & Wu, Y. (2023). Advanced multimodal fusion method for very short-term solar irradiance forecasting using sky images and meteorological data: A gate and transformer mechanism approach. Renewable Energy, 216, Article 118952. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.renene.2023.118952

Cloud dynamics are the main factor influencing the intermittent variability of short-term solar irradiance, and therefore affect the solar farm output. Sky images have been widely used for short-term solar irradiance prediction with encouraging resul...

What we think we know about the aerodynamic performance of windows (2020)
Journal Article
Sharpe, P., Jones, B., Wilson, R., & Iddon, C. (2021). What we think we know about the aerodynamic performance of windows. Energy and Buildings, 231, Article 110556. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.enbuild.2020.110556

© 2020 Natural ventilation is a low energy strategy used in many building types. Design approaches are mature but are dependent on variables with high uncertainty, such as the aerodynamic behaviour of purpose provided openings (PPOs), which need impr...

Prediction of acoustic transmission in heavily damped system using hybrid Ray-Tracing-SEA method (2020)
Journal Article
Yan, F., Wilson, R., & Rutherford, P. (2020). Prediction of acoustic transmission in heavily damped system using hybrid Ray-Tracing-SEA method. Noise control engineering journal, 68(3), 226-236. https://doi.org/10.3397/1/376819

Classic statistical energy analysis mainly deals with the energy transmission of system with relatively low damping. With the application of passive damping treatments, one of the fundamental assumptions in SEA, i.e., a diffused field, tends to fail....

Development of experimental methods for quantifying the human response to chromatic glazing (2018)
Journal Article
Liang, R., Kent, M., Wilson, R., & Wu, Y. (2019). Development of experimental methods for quantifying the human response to chromatic glazing. Building and Environment, 147, 199-210. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2018.09.044

Thermochromic (TC) windows have the ability to regulate daylight and control the solar heat gains that shape a building's internal environment. They therefore offer the potential to improve indoor comfort and reduce building energy demand when used i...
