Indoor air quality (IAQ) is an important aspect of maintaining human health and well-being, particularly since people spend most of their time indoors. Carpets, with their large surface area and dense fibre piles, have the potential to significantly impact IAQ by emitting and abs

The corona pandemic underlined a lack of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and
ventilation. Consequently, to limit the spread of the virus, researchers explored several indicators that, through different approaches, assess IAQ and ventilation performance in indoor spaces. This paper gives

Noise simulations are an important part of noise studies that investigate the impact of noise sources on the environment. In noise simulation, noise levels at receiver points are calculated based on the noise propagation paths between the receiver and source points. These paths a

The corona pandemic accelerated a lot of studies about aerosol dispersion and different aerosol-generating tasks ranging in intensity from sneezing to breathing. Both measurements and numerical simulations were used to understand the behaviour of aerosols. For numerical simulatio

The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of indoor air quality (IAQ) and ventilation, which researchers have been warning about for years. During the pandemic, researchers studied several indicators using different approaches to assess IAQ and diverse ventilation systems

Municipalities invest a lot of time and person-hours into manual building permit checks. With the increase in computational power and the use of Building Information Models (BIM) in the building design life cycle, several municipalities are investing in automating these checks ...

The flexibility of the Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) format makes it challenging to blindly rely on the data it stores. This is because, to allow its flexibility, the stored data in an IFC file can be missing, incorrect, redundant, or stored in vague ways while the file can s
