Comparing different approaches of agent-based occupancy modelling for predicting realistic electricity consumption in office buildings (2023)
Journal Article
Mashuk, M. S., Pinchin, J., Siebers, P., & Moore, T. (2024). Comparing different approaches of agent-based occupancy modelling for predicting realistic electricity consumption in office buildings. Journal of Building Engineering, 84, Article 108420. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jobe.2023.108420

Having a good grasp on modelling the dynamics of occupants for estimating electricity consumption in office buildings is a vital asset for realistic predictions. Nowadays, agent-based models are widely used for this purpose. Previous approaches to mo...

Demonstrating the potential of indoor positioning for monitoring building occupancy through ecologically valid trials (2021)
Journal Article
Mashuk, M. S., Pinchin, J., Siebers, P. O., & Moore, T. (2021). Demonstrating the potential of indoor positioning for monitoring building occupancy through ecologically valid trials. Journal of Location Based Services, 15(4), 305-327. https://doi.org/10.1080/17489725.2021.1893394

Assessing building performance related to energy consumption in post-design-occupancy stage requires knowledge of building occupancy pattern. These occupancy data can potentially be collected from trials and used to improve the prediction capability...

Optimising Decarbonisation Investment for Firms towards Environmental Sustainability (2019)
Journal Article
Tran, T., Mao, Y., & Siebers, P. (2019). Optimising Decarbonisation Investment for Firms towards Environmental Sustainability. Sustainability, 11(20), https://doi.org/10.3390/su11205718

We develop a mixed-integer non-linear programming model for firms’ decarbonisation investment decision-making towards a sustainable environment. Our model seeks the optimal investment for a firm to achieve maximum profit under constraints derived fro...

Using agent-based modelling for investigating modal shift: The case of university travel (2019)
Journal Article
Olusola, F. T., Siebers, P., Faboya, O., Ryan, B., & Figueredo, G. P. (2020). Using agent-based modelling for investigating modal shift: The case of university travel. Computers and Industrial Engineering, 139, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cie.2019.106077

© 2019 Travel mode choices are a result of several factors and how they affect individual travellers. This paper examines those factors influencing travellers’ mode choices commuting to and from a university. Furthermore, we investigate how a shift t...

Integrating slacks-based measure of efficiency and super-efficiency in data envelopment analysis (2018)
Journal Article
Tran, T. H., Mao, Y., Nathanail, P., Siebers, P., & Robinson, D. (2019). Integrating slacks-based measure of efficiency and super-efficiency in data envelopment analysis. Omega, 85, 156-165. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.omega.2018.06.008

© 2018 Elsevier Ltd In this paper, we develop an integrated model for slacks-based measure (SBM) simultaneously of both the efficiency and the super-efficiency for decision-making units (DMUs) in data envelopment analysis (DEA). Unlike the traditiona... Read More about Integrating slacks-based measure of efficiency and super-efficiency in data envelopment analysis.
