1. Conducted in-depth research on occupant thermal comfort, strategies for building materials2. Collaborated with cross-functional teams to ensure alignment of project objectives and goals3. Analyzed data and trends for indoor thermal comfort4. Developed application interfaces for feedback surveys5. Article and report writing6. Presented paper at two conferencesProject 1: Development of prediction algorithm for predicting operative temperature in buildingsa. Was involved in the study of the thermal comfort of occupants on campusb. In-depth research of thermal comfort parameters, causes of discomfort, existing and new comfort models, and prediction models for predicting operative temperaturec. Developed Machine Learning algorithm for the prediction of operative temperature with the IoT team that will be used to automate indoor comfort equipment (fans and AC's)d. Made interfaces for an in-house application to take feedback surveys from the occupantse. Presented two papers at the 15th International Conference at the Faculty of Architecture Research Unit (FARU), University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka, and presented virtually at the 6th Building Simulation and Optimization (BSO) Conference hosted by the University of Bath, UK.
