'Several high quality scientific journals are published in the area
of building energy and indoor/outdoor environment; however, one has
been missing. Advances in Building Energy Research fills the gap. I
recommend ABER to all technical libraries, research institutes and
universities. It should also be used by construction companies and
those manufacturing building materials and building products.'
Professor Olli Sepp nen, President of REHVA (Federation of Heating
and Air-conditioning Associations) 'Advances in Building Energy
Research is a unique index. It will be an inexhaustible resource
for energy related sciences and a continuous inspiration for
architects around the world.' N. Fintikakis, Architect and Director
of UIA-ARES WP (Architecture and Renewable Energy Sources) 'The
collection of articles provides an encyclopaedic overview of the
state of the art of the subject; and they are written clearly and
concisely. This volume is a must for researchers and advanced
students.' Professor Edward Ng, Department of Architecture, The
Chinese University of Hong Kong 'This is a very valuable first
volume of a new series with each section written by leaders in
their respective fields. Contributions cover a range of related
topics and present evaluations of contemporary issues in building
energy research that give the reader an immediate and clear
insight.' Dr Adrian Pitts, Senior Lecturer in Energy, Environment
and Sustainability, University of Sheffield Advances in Building
Energy Research (ABER) offers state-of-the-art information on the
environmental science and performance of buildings, linking new
technologies and methodologies with the latest research on systems,
simulations and standards. As stringently reviewed as a journal but
with the breadth of a book, this annual volume brings together
invited contributions from the foremost international experts on
energy efficiency and environmental quality of buildings. Spanning
a broad range of technical subjects, this is a 'must have'
reference on global developments in the field, suitable for
architects and building engineers, environmental engineers,
industry professionals, students, teachers and researchers in
building science, technical libraries and laboratories. This first
volume covers double skin fa ades; artificial intelligence in
buildings; indoor thermal comfort and the progress of the adaptive
approach; heat island research and the effect of urban
microclimate; the use of techniques such as high dynamic range
imaging and satellite remote sensing; and vital management and
monitoring approaches such as post-occupancy evaluation.
