This book collects a selection of papers presented at ELECTRIMACS, 2022 the14th international conference of the IMACS TC1 Committee, held in Nancy, France, on 17st-21rd May 2022.
Microgeneration - producing energy for the home, in the home - is a substantial improvement over the current centralised and detached energy model employed the world over.
This is a definitive guide to the rebound effect in home heating - the increase in energy service use after a technological intervention aimed at reducing consumption.

Designbuild Education adopts the intellectual framework of American Pragmatism, which is a theory of action, to investigate architects' compelling urge to build and how that manifests in collegiate designbuild programs.
