Volakos, Efstratios (author), Davis, Chris (author), Teich, Martien (author), Lenk, Peter (author), Overend, M. (author)Embedded load-bearing laminated glass connections have gained popularity in recent years due to their mechanical performance and aesthetic appeal. However, there is a paucity of data on their structural behaviour across a range of temperatures that may arise in building applications and there is also no simplified mechanics-based model for...journal article 2023

Hartwell, R.C. (author), Coult, Graham (author), Overend, M. (author)This article has been amended to correct the in-text figure and table referencing and to provide clarification in Table 1 that automotive flat glass production does not take place in the UK. The Supplementary Information has been updated to correct reported units and clarify production processes. The original article has been corrected.journal article 2023

Luna-Navarro, Alessandra (author), Lori, Guido (author), Callewaert, Dieter (author), Overend, M. (author)Occupant satisfaction and acceptance with automated control strategies for dynamic façades is currently a barrier to the upscale of these systems. Building owners, designers and occupants are often unconvinced that an automated control strategy for dynamic façades could really be beneficial for building energy efficiency and occupant...journal article 2023

Veenstra, C.R.A. (author), Noteboom, C. (author), Oikonomopoulou, F. (author), Overend, M. (author)This research revolves around the design, fabrication and testing of tubular glass columns, with particular focus on their redundancy and fire-safety mechanisms; moreover, addressing aspects such as: the column shape; cleaning and maintenance; end connections; geometric tolerances in the glass and demountability. Two alternative circular hollow ...conference paper 2022

Luna Navarro, A. (author), Hunt, Gary R. (author), Overend, M. (author)Building occupants interact frequently with façades. These interactions simultaneously affect several domains of the indoor environment (visual, thermal, air quality and acoustic) and occupant perception, as well as the energy performance of the façades. Yet this multi-domain relationship between façade and occupant is not well understood....journal article 2022

Bianchi, S. (author), Ciurlanti, J. (author), Overend, M. (author), Pampanin, Stefano (author)Structural safety and environmental sustainability are major factors in investment decisions for building systems, but are rarely considered simultaneously. Recent research efforts have redressed this by developing assessment methodologies and technical solutions for integrated energy efficiency and seismic performance. These studies are...journal article 2022

Angelides, S. C. (author), Talbot, J. P. (author), Overend, M. (author)Laminated glass panels are increasingly installed in glazed façades to enhance the blast protection of buildings. These ductile panels offer residual bending resistance following the fracture of the glass layers, due to the composite action of the attached glass fragments in compression and the interlayer in tension. Three-point bending tests...journal article 2022

Michael, Michalis (author), Overend, M. (author)In its simplest form, a Closed Cavity Façade (CCF) consists of a double or triple glazing unit (DGU or TGU) on the inner layer and single glazing on the outer one, forming a sealed non-ventilated cavity with an automated shading device in between. Given its dynamic behaviour, this technology can dynamically control the flow of solar energy...journal article 2022

Hartwell, Rebecca (author), Coult, Graham (author), Overend, M. (author)Glass is one of the UK’s eight energy-intensive industries. As such, it is under scrutiny to decouple growth in production from greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Recycled glass, also known as cullet, requires less energy to melt than primary raw materials in new glass production. The use of cullet thus reduces the energy intensity per unit of...journal article 2022

Borkowski, Esther (author), Luna-Navarro, Alessandra (author), Michael, Michalis (author), Overend, M. (author), Rovas, Dimitrios (author), Raslan, Rokia (author)The thermal performance of adaptive building envelopes can be evaluated using building performance simulation tools. Simulation capabilities and accuracy in predicting the dynamic behaviour of adaptive building envelopes can be enhanced through co-simulation. However, it is unclear how accurately co-simulation can predict the performance of...journal article 2022

Volakos, Efstratios (author), Davis, Chris (author), Teich, Martien (author), Lenk, Peter (author), Overend, M. (author)Connections between load-bearing glass components play a major role in terms of the structural integrity and aesthetics of glass applications. Recently, a new type of adhesive connection, known as embedded laminated glass connections, has been developed where a metallic insert is embedded within a laminated glass unit by means of transparent...journal article 2021

Michael, M. (author), Overend, M. (author)Glazing is a critical buildings element as it is the most vulnerable envelope part to heat gain and heat loss accounting for around 50% of a building's energy consumption. However, conventional glazing technologies have relatively low-performance characteristics which cause significant heat losses during winter and undesired heat gain in...journal article 2021

Hartwell, R.C. (author), Macmillan, Sebastian (author), Overend, M. (author)Reuse and high-value recycling have a pivotal role to play in reducing waste and minimising carbon emissions in the built environment. Design strategies for such recovery methods have yet to be fully established in the façade industry. Meanwhile, stringent regulations, aimed at reducing operational carbon emissions of buildings and improving...journal article 2021

Angelides, S. C. (author), Talbot, J. P. (author), Overend, M. (author)To enhance the resilience of buildings, laminated glass panels are increasingly used in glazed façades. These ductile panels provide a superior blast resistance to that provided by monolithic glass panels, due to the improved residual capacity offered by the polymer interlayer following the fracture of the glass layers. The complex...journal article 2021

Luna-Navarro, Alessandra (author), Overend, M.
