Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Thermal comfort

His primary areas of investigation include Thermal comfort, Architectural engineering, ASHRAE 90.1, Meteorology and Natural ventilation. His Thermal comfort research integrates issues from Ventilation and Adaptation. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Architectural engineering, Workstation is strongly linked to HVAC.

His work deals with themes such as Mixed mode, Mixed-mode ventilation, Empirical research and Personal control, which intersect with ASHRAE 90.1. His studies in Mixed-mode ventilation integrate themes in fields like Raw data, Environmental control system and Occupancy. His Natural ventilation study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Thermal.

His most cited work include:

  • Developing an adaptive model of thermal comfort and preference (1248 citations)
  • Thermal adaptation in the built environment: a literature review (888 citations)
  • Thermal comfort in naturally ventilated buildings: revisions to ASHRAE Standard 55 (825 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Thermal comfort, Architectural engineering, Meteorology, ASHRAE 90.1 and Natural ventilation. His Thermal comfort study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ventilation, Thermal and Air conditioning. His work in the fields of Architectural engineering, such as Occupancy, overlaps with other areas such as Environmental quality.

When carried out as part of a general Meteorology research project, his work on Wind speed is frequently linked to work in Typical meteorological year, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His research integrates issues of Operative temperature and Air velocity in his study of ASHRAE 90.1. His Natural ventilation research includes elements of Mixed mode, Thermal perception and Mode.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Thermal comfort (60.33%)
  • Architectural engineering (28.26%)
  • Meteorology (16.85%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Thermal comfort (60.33%)
  • Thermal sensation (7.07%)
  • Architectural engineering (28.26%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Thermal comfort, Thermal sensation, Architectural engineering, Ventilation and Statistics. The Thermal comfort study combines topics in areas such as Thermal, Affect, Field, Applied psychology and HVAC. His Field study combines topics in areas such as ASHRAE 90.1 and Built environment.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Natural ventilation and Mode in addition to Architectural engineering. His Natural ventilation research includes themes of Clothing insulation and Mixed mode. His Ventilation study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Meteorology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Individual difference in thermal comfort: A literature review (146 citations)
  • Development of the ASHRAE Global Thermal Comfort Database II (89 citations)
  • Thermal comfort expectations and adaptive behavioural characteristics of primary and secondary school students (58 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Statistics
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Meteorology

His primary areas of study are Thermal comfort, Thermal sensation, Architectural engineering, Applied psychology and Environmental quality. In his works, Richard de Dear performs multidisciplinary study on Thermal comfort and Humid continental climate. His Thermal sensation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sample, Transport engineering and Audiology.

His Architectural engineering research integrates issues from Mixed mode and Mode. His research in Field intersects with topics in Thermal perception, Natural ventilation and ASHRAE 90.1. His HVAC research includes elements of Ventilation and Mixed-mode ventilation.
