I am an ardent researcher, a certified Project Manager from the British Project Management Academy and also a graduate member of the Nigerian Institute of Architects with a Bachelor and Masters Degree from the Federal University of Technology, Akure.
In terms of energy production and efficient consumption of available natural resources, I am fervid about environmental sustainability since the majority of residential and industrial buildings are the world's dominant energy consumers. Being enthralled by the environmental complicacy, I joined LSBU in 2020 to explore the feasibility of using a fuzzy logic-based control system to improve natural ventilation in the buildings.
Review of Research
I joined LSBU in 2020 to explore the potential use of a fuzzy logic-based control system in buildings for natural ventilation. This will improve the efficiency of the design of natural ventilation by incorporating the outside air at the right time and the required amount into buildings.
Optimized and automatic control of windows or mechanical fans in naturally ventilated or mixed-mode buildings may bring this concept to fruition. The results of this project have widespread applications in both residential and commercial buildings in the design and control of natural ventilation. This project could support researchers across other fields. In addition, this study would provide insights into the applications of fuzzy logic control in building systems and would also pave the way for other researchers in the field of design science to extend this principle to other building services.
The findings of the project will be disseminated by publication in related journals within the building industry and academic community.
