4. Solar Shading for Low Energy Use and Daylight Quality in Offices: Simulations, Measurements and Design Tools
Abstract : This thesis investigates the impact of solar shading devices on energy use and daylight quality in office rooms. The impact on energy use is analysed through computer simulations with the dynamic energy simulation program Derob-LTH while the impact on daylight quality is investigated through measurements in full-scale experimental office rooms and simulations with the program Radiance.

5. Caving mechanisms for a non-daylighting orebody
Abstract : The sublevel caving mining method is a mass production method with potentially very low operational costs. The success of this method is dependent on, among other factors, the cavability of the orebody and the overlying rock mass. READ MORE
