    Reinforcement learning for HVAC control in intelligent buildings: A technical and conceptual review

    Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems in buildings are a major source of global operational CO2 emissions, primarily due to their high energy demands. Traditional controllers have shown effectiveness in managing building energy use. However, they either struggle to handle complex environments or cannot incorporate learning from experience into their decision-making processes, leading to […]

    Impact of polypropylene fibers on the rheological, mechanical, andthermal properties of self-compacting concrete

    The objective of this experimental investigation is to examine the impact of using polypropylene fibers on the properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC). Five mixtures were prepared, one reference concrete (without fibers) and four other SCC containing, 0.05,0.1, 0.15, and 0.2% of polypropylenes fibers. Rheological (slump flow, yield stress, and plastic viscosity) and mechanical (compressivestrength) properties […]

    LEAN-BIM SYNERGY IN THE CONSTRUCTION DESIGN PHASE: AUTO-GENERATION AND EVALUATION OF THERMAL ALTERNATIVES

    This study explores the integration of Lean principles with Building Information Modeling (BIM) to enhance decision-making in the relatively unexplored field of thermal design for construction projects. Recognizing the limitations of current design processes, characterized by insufficient alternatives and a lack of team collaboration, we introduce a new decision-making tool. This tool centers on a […]

    Sampled-Data Observer Design for Linear Kuramoto-Sivashinsky Systems with Non-Local Output

    The aim of this paper is to provide a novel systematic methodology for the design of sampled-data observers for Linear Kuramoto-Sivashinsky systems (LK-S) with non-local outputs. More precisely, we extend the systematic sampled-data observer design approach which is based on the use of an Inter-Sample output predictor to the class of LK-S systems. By using […]

    Enhanced multi-horizon occupancy prediction in smart buildings using cascaded Bi-LSTM models with integrated features

    Accurate occupancy prediction in smart buildings is crucial for optimizing energy management, improving occupant comfort, and effectively controlling building systems, particularly for short- and long-term horizons. Recently, deep learning-based occupancy prediction methods have gained considerable attention. However, the full potential of these methods remains under explored in terms of model architecture variations and prediction horizons. […]

    Optimizing Comfort and Energy Efficiency: The Impact of Model Accuracy on Multi-Objective MPC

    Abstract—Buildings are responsible for ∼30% of primary energy consumption, mainly because of Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems. The usual ON/OFF controller tends to react to occupancy presence, causing discomfort and energy waste. Furthermore, these controllers usually focus on thermal comfort and disregard other comforts, such as air quality, visual, etc. due to their […]

    Hyperparameter Impact on Computational Efficiency in Federated Edge Learning

    The heterogeneity induced by the federated edge learning execution environment poses many performance challenges. Indeed, a balance between efficient resource usage and inference accuracy must be found. Our work therefore aims at characterizing the hyperparameter influence by creating a variety of simulated execution circumstances. We designed an experimentation platform to simulate the execution of a […]
