The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a significant increase in working from home worldwide, making the work-from-home (WFH) setting crucial context for studying influence of indoor environmental quality (IEQ) on workers' well-being and productivity. A narrative visual synthesis 41 research articles IEQ WFH settings was conducted identify factors being measured their correlations with perceived productivity well-being. This review shows that conditions at were mainly within recommended...
Although existing standards typically prescribe fixed ventilation rates, a large portion of the building stock lacks mechanical systems. Such buildings obtain outdoor air through unintentional infiltration, open windows, and operation exhaust fans, which are mainly dependent on user awareness behavior. This study investigates whether presence simple CO2 meter display can alter behavior improve indoor quality (IAQ) in dwellings. We conducted two-week monitoring concentration, temperature,...
Professionals in the building design and operation fields typically look at standards guidelines as a reliable source of information guidance with regard to procedural, contractual, legal scope requirements that are relevant accountability issues compliance necessities. Specifically, indoor environmental quality (IEQ) support professionals bring about comfortable thermal, air quality, acoustic, or visual conditions buildings. In this context, it appears essential regularly examine IEQ...
Abstract The judgment of thermal comfort is a cognitive process which influenced by physical, psychological and other factors. Prior studies have shown that occupants, who are generally satisfied with many non-thermal conditions indoor environmental quality, more likely to be as well. This paper presents novel approach considers the effect building design conditions, such air quality noise levels, on perceived in open-plan offices. methodology involves use Bayesian inference relate...

Abstract This essay examines Herman Bavinck’s doctrine of atonement within his treatment Christ’s humiliation in volume three Reformed Dogmatics . Through an investigation critiques key nineteenth century theologians and own constructive account the atonement, I show that Bavinck intended theology work to serve as a corrective dominant approach day. Against what he considered one-sided views work, argue sought offer which emulates Scripture its multifaceted character. further retrieve build...
This paper updates the findings of a prior work that found evidence to suggest predictions thermal comfort can be improved by adding measurements indoor CO2 concentrations. first these 150 new samples IEQ collected from occupants office spaces at University British Columbia in 2019. then formulates and proposes novel Hierarchical Bayesian model, trained on expanded field dataset, predicts satisfaction based metrics levels. Posterior predictive results revealed robust statistically...
In a prior work, we applied Bayesian logistic regression to investigate possible quantifiable correlations between occupant’s perceived thermal comfort, indoor conditions, and non-thermal metrics of environmental quality (IEQ). This study updates the findings work by adding IEQ data collected from recent field carried out at University British Columbia. expanded dataset reinforces observations made in our first paper that comfort is correlated measured values CO2 concentrations....
Although various standards prescribe fixed limits for ventilation rates, a large part of the building stock does not have mechanical systems. Such buildings obtain outdoor air through unintentional infiltration, and operation exhaust fans, which are mainly dependent on user awareness behavior. The main objective this paper is to investigate whether presence simple CO2 meter display can alter behavior improve indoor quality (IAQ) in dwellings. Three IAQ parameters were monitored 60 European...
Abstract Seeking to bridge the gap between observations and predictions of thermal comfort, recent work has explored novel predictive frameworks improve prediction accuracy occupants’ satisfaction in office spaces. Recent contributions include development a Bayesian framework estimate probability an occupant feeling thermally satisfied as function not only psychrometric IEQ parameters but also non-thermal metrics IEQ. A relationship indoor CO 2 concentrations was found, though underlying...
