This study aims to understand how urban residents in Singapore and Zurich experience urban vitality. In this blog post, participants of the online survey may retrieve information about updates and outcome of this study.
CACTUS (Comprehensive Assessment and Computational Toolset for Urban Solar) is a Python-based set of tools and workflows for analysing integrated photovotlaic arrays. The repository provides a set of established workflows to move from low level of detail geometry and descriptive data through the automatic design of an array and the IV-based calculation of that array.
RISE (Repository for Integrated Solar Energy) contains a database of integrated photovoltaic projects around the world. With each project you will find key performance metrics and images, as well as a link for further information.
Bombyx and Hive are Rhino Grasshopper tools for the assessment of embodied emissions (LCA) and energy. The combination of both tools offers a powerful, integrated workflow for architects and engineers to evaluate both operational and embodied emissions during the early stages of design.
Community solar (CS) involves the use of shared solar photovoltaic and energy storage systems within a local community, a concept that has grown in popularity in recent years. In this project, we aim to facilitate the coordination of decentralized CS investments through dynamic pricing and to improve the performance of CS by implementing land use regulation controls.
Segment for Solar Facades (S4S) is a tool that utilizes instance segmentation methods to accurately estimate the solar energy potential of building facades. Facades vary greatly in their design, and the placement of solar panels must be tailored to each application. S4S takes into account the architectural details and variations of facades, providing a more accurate assessment of their solar potential.
