Gilbert
BSc, MSc (dist), CEng, MImechE
Bobby is
responsible for assessing the building physics of ZED buildings in order
to ensure that they perform well in the climate and use for which they
are intended whilst maintaining zero net carbon emissions with an appropriate
mix of low energy systems and renewable energy sources. He is a mathematician
with 15 years experience of developing mathematical models, simulations
and monitoring systems specialising in the physics of building development
performance. He has a first degree in mathematics from Bath University,
an MA in architecture & advanced energy studies from UEL and he is
also a chartered mechanical engineer. As well as working at ZEDFactory
Bobby has a number of other clients including the Building Research Establishment
where he assesses schemes to reduce carbon emissions in large developments
using bespoke models of energy usage some of which are being developed
into commercially available software. He also lectures in building physics
for the MSc Architecture at the UEL, in Europe for the British Council,
and writes course material for a Master's degree at the University of
Manchester. Bobby's recent work will shortly be published as chapters
on "ZED Physics" in the revised second edition of "From
A to ZED - Realising Zero (fossil) Energy Developments".
