Current research
I have completed over €400K funded projects since 2017. The qualitative impact of my research works is mostly on the development of data-driven approaches in the decarbonisation of built environment and mitigation of climate change impact through simulations and the creation of data-driven comfort models.
Examples of my research impact are visible in one of the IPCC reports (The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the United Nations body for assessing the science related to climate change) and the UK Parliament Research Briefing. My research on using Phase Change Materials with an air gap was included in the IPCC examples of adaption, and interventions at building shell in their supplementary report for Key Risks Across Sectors and Regions for Europe (13SM). My other research work on developing thermal comfort models by using AI was included in the UK Parliament Research Briefing on Sustainable Cooling (Briefings are impartial analyses produced by the UK Parliament on a variety of topics that affect the UK like the economy, health, and security).
