Metamodels to assess the thermal performance of naturally ventilated, low-cost houses in Brazil

ENERGY AND BUILDINGS, 204.

author keywords: Passive design; Natural ventilation; Metamodel; Multivariate regression; Early design
TL;DR: The proposed metamodels can quickly and accurately assess the thermal performance of naturally ventilated low-cost houses during early design and can be used to guide professionals during the early design stages, and for educational purposes in building design pedagogy.

Repurposing an energy system optimization model for seasonal power generation planning

ENERGY, 181, 1321–1330.

By: A. Queiroz n, D. Mulcahy n, A. Sankarasubramanian n, J. Deane*, G. Mahinthakumar n, N. Lu, J. DeCarolis n

author keywords: Power generation planning; Unit commitment; Energy system optimization; Seasonal demand forecasts; Mathematical programming
TL;DR: The results show that the energy system optimization model using an imperfect load forecast produces differences in monthly cost and generation levels that are less than 2% compared with a unit commitment model using a perfect load forecast. (via Semantic Scholar)

Evaluation of optimal model parameters for prediction of methane generation from selected US landfills

WASTE MANAGEMENT, 91, 120–127.

By: W. Sun*, X. Wang n, J. DeCarolis n & M. Barlaz n

author keywords: Landfills; Landfill gas; Methane; Gas collection efficiency; LandGEM
MeSH headings : Air Pollutants; Gases; Methane; Refuse Disposal; Waste Disposal Facilities
TL;DR: Methane collection data from 21 U.S. landfills were used to estimate the best fit k by inverse modeling of measured methane collection data in consideration of a time-varying gas collection efficiency, and show that there is wide variation in the best estimate. (via Semantic Scholar)

Solid Waste Management Policy Implications on Waste Process Choices and Systemwide Cost and Greenhouse Gas Performance

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, 53(4), 1766–1775.

By: M. Jaunich n, J. Levis n, J. DeCarolis n, M. Barlaz n & S. Ranjithan n

MeSH headings : Cities; Greenhouse Effect; Greenhouse Gases; Humans; North Carolina; Refuse Disposal; Solid Waste; Waste Management
TL;DR: This analysis evaluated cost and select environmental implications of SWM policies for Wake County, North Carolina using a life-cycle approach and found that maintaining the current separate collection scheme limited the potential for cost and GHG reductions. (via Semantic Scholar)
