Analysis of indoor climate and occupants' behaviour in traditional Scottish dwellings. (2015)
Journal Article
HERRERA GUTIERREZ-AVELLANOSA, D. and BENNADJI, A. 2015. Analysis of indoor climate and occupants' behaviour in traditional Scottish dwellings. Energy procedia [online], 78: Proceedings of the 6th international building physics conference (IBPC 2015), 14-17 June 2015, Torino, Italy, pages 639-644. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.egypro.2015.11.046

Due to the relevance of the internal boundary conditions and the lack of specific data for the Scottish context, an exploration of the internal environment of traditional dwellings is needed. In this study the indoor climate of 24 properties with dif... Read More about Analysis of indoor climate and occupants' behaviour in traditional Scottish dwellings..

Skills development for retrofitting a historic listed building in Scotland. (2013)
Journal Article
