Thesis review : Towards a universal and integrated digital representation of physical phenomena: a model to investigate comfort and energy efficiency in future environments
This thesis describes the exploration and the development of computational means to investigate the behaviour of design objects before they are available for investigation in the physical world. The motivation is to inform the design process about the design object's performance in order to achieve better--more performance-oriented--design outcomes in the sense of energy efficiency and comfort performance than can be achieved by conventional design techniques.
