A simulation-based framework for a mapping tool that assesses the energy performance of green roofs
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kokogiannakis, G., & Darkwa, J. A simulation-based framework for a mapping tool that assesses the energy performance of green roofs.

This paper presents a framework for the development of a GIS open source mapping tool that aims to disseminate a database with results of detailed simulations in order to assess in a quick and easy way the energy performance of green roof designs acr...

Power conditioning of thermoelectric generated power using dc-dc converters: a case study of a boost converter
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Twaha, S., Zhu, J., & Yan, Y. (in press). Power conditioning of thermoelectric generated power using dc-dc converters: a case study of a boost converter.

The near exhaustion of non-renewable energy resources such as fossil fuels followed by disastrous climatic changes have alerted the world to invest in alternative energy sources. Thermoelectric (TE) technology is responsible for innovating TE devices...
