- Additional information
- The paper has analysed (based on measurements and computational studies) the impact of a dense urban environment on the energy demand by residential buildings. Despite its focus on one city the analysis provided has wider applicability and has been cited by authors in Japan, India and South America. It has led to an invitation to deliver a funded week-long school organised by the National University of Rosario, Argentina in April 2019 and to an academic visit to Brunel University by Marcelo Vega, Lecturer in Sustainability of the National University of Rosario in June 2019.
