Comparative life cycle analysis of façade passive systems in the Mediterranean: Comfort, energy, and carbon (2019)
Journal Article
Mifsud, L., Pomponi, F., & Moncaster, A. M. (2020). Comparative life cycle analysis of façade passive systems in the Mediterranean: Comfort, energy, and carbon. Renewable Energy, 149, 347-360. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.renene.2019.12.072

In the Mediterranean region façade shading systems are used to reduce operational energy, particularly cooling loads. However, operational savings do not necessarily translate into net energy savings unless they outweigh the embodied energy/carbon re...

A conceptual framework for understanding adaptation planning of urban road infrastructure (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Herrera, J. C., Haigh, S., MacAskill, K., & Moncaster, A. (2019, October). A conceptual framework for understanding adaptation planning of urban road infrastructure. Paper presented at 26th World Road Congress, Abu Dhabi , United Arab Emirates

In the field of adaptation of road infrastructure, several frameworks for decision-making are available, but these have focused mainly on the adaptation of national or regional road network systems. Although the protection of these systems from the p... Read More about A conceptual framework for understanding adaptation planning of urban road infrastructure.

Applying Bayesian model averaging to characterise urban residential stock turnover dynamics (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Zhou, W., O?Neill, E., Moncaster, A., Reiner, D., & Guthrie, P. Applying Bayesian model averaging to characterise urban residential stock turnover dynamics. In Urban Energy Systems: Building, Transport, Environment, Industry, and Integration. https://doi.org/10.46855/energy-proceedings-6785

Building stock is a key determinant in building energy modelling and policy analysis. However, official statistics on total floor area of urban residential stock in China only exist up to 2006. Previous studies estimating Chinese urban residential st... Read More about Applying Bayesian model averaging to characterise urban residential stock turnover dynamics.

Arguments for a co-production approach to community flood protection (2019)
Journal Article
Fitton, S. L., & Moncaster, A. M. (2019). Arguments for a co-production approach to community flood protection. Proceedings of the ICE - Engineering Sustainability, 172(7), 335-344. https://doi.org/10.1680/jensu.17.00014

With more intense rainfall and sea level rises predicted, an increasing number of people across the UK are vulnerable to flood events. The government has pledged more funding for flood infrastructure planning, design and management. However, schemes...
