“…The calculation of the energy consumption is mainly dedicated to architects and based on the results of dynamic thermal software. Amongst others, Praznic et al [29] and Reilly et al [30] developed simplified method for energy efficiency in building. Their aim was to use as few parameters as possible and simple calculation method.…”

a b s t r a c tImproving energy efficiency in the building and transportation sectors is a viable approach to mitigate the effects of climate change and has become an important policy target. As a result, in addition to scientific research and public policies addressing energy efficiency, raising public awareness of the impact of the behaviour of citizens to energy efficiency is crucial and could quickly lead to significant reductions in the total energy consumption of a territory. In this context, this paper presents a new online interactive tool that enables not only citizens but also local authorities and private developers to (1) assess the sources of energy consumption related to housing and to daily mobility at both the individual and neighbourhood scales, (2) compare these sources and (3) determine relevant and personalised suggestions to reduce energy consumption. Numerous methods and tools, including a typological classification of buildings, thermal dynamic simulations, life-cycle assessments and statistical treatments of national censuses, were used to produce the two large databases used in this interactive tool. This report represents the primary results of a three-year long scientific research project dedicated to the study of energy efficiency in buildings and for daily mobility that is accessible to a large non-specialised audience.

“…By using the recommended credibility as weight to combine the reputation feedback value, the global reputation value of node g can be obtained. Except for the above literatures, many researches of enterprise competitiveness reputation management (Praznik and Butala and Senegačnik, 2013;Yim and Kim and Seong, 2013;O'Neill and McDonald and Deegan, 2015;Stanton and Nielsen and Tamsir, 2014) also regard Formula (1) as the basis. They usually synthetically consider other factors on the basis of Formula (1).…”

“…They usually synthetically consider other factors on the basis of Formula (1). For example, literature (Praznik, Butala and Senegačnik, 2013) provides the idea of combining the node similarity in considering the feedback. Literature (Yim, Kim and Seong, 2013) found and applied the power-law distribution characteristics of reputation feedback when collecting reputation feedback.…”

The node in the network of enterprise competitiveness is possible to receive service and information with poor quality from the other nodes. Group analysis and evaluation is a common method to solve this problem. The calculation mechanism of enterprise competitiveness based on score feedback has the following disadvantages: unable to distinguish the difference between malicious evaluation and error evaluation given by honest nodes; need second evaluation on the score credibility, which slows down the computing speed of competitiveness; the method of using number to express the node reputation is not natural. In fact, the use of group analysis and evaluation is to determine the relative order of node credibility. Therefore, a kind of reputation based law of logic partial order (RLPO) was proposed. The mathematical modeling and theoretical analysis were conducted based on RLPO and its malicious attacks. Results show that the influence of non-malicious error of RLPO decreases with the exponent of law of logic partial order number; generally, the effect of malicious attack on RLPO decreases with the polynomial of law of logic partial order number; for the collusion attack by design, the malicious attacks were effectively neutralized because RLPO must introduce the right information. Therefore, RLPO no longer feeds back rating information. So there is no group analysis and evaluation problem caused by score feedback (such as no need of second evaluation for the credibility of feedback information).

“…For this reason, effective retrofitting concepts, which should include newly developed or modified and upgraded technologies, as well as new design concepts, need to be developed and their validity confirmed [4][5][6]. It should be mentioned that these technologies should also be considered from the seismic engineering point of view, since certain elements could influence the dynamic stability of a structure [7,8].…”

Abstract:In order to achieve significant savings in energy and an improved level of thermal comfort in retrofitted existing buildings, specific retrofitting concepts that combine new technologies and design need to be developed and implemented. Large radiant surfaces systems are now among the most promising future technologies to be used both in retrofitted and in new low-energy buildings. These kinds of systems have been the topic of several studies dealing with thermal comfort and energy utilization, but some specific issues concerning their possible use in various concepts for retrofitting are still poorly understood. In the present paper, some results of dynamic simulations, with the transient system simulation tool (TRNSYS) model, of the retrofitted offices equipped with radiant ceiling panels are presented and thoroughly analysed. Based on a precise comparison of the results of these simulations with actual measurements in the offices, certain input data for the model were added, so that the model was consequently validated. The model was then applied to the evaluation of various concepts of building envelopes for office retrofitting. By means of dynamic simulations of indoor environment it was possible to determine the benefits and OPEN ACCESSSustainability 2015, 7 13170 limitations of individual retrofitting concepts. Some specific parameters, which are relevant to these concepts, were also identified.
