  • Thermal Memory and Transition in Lobby Spaces
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Energy Procedia 62 ( 2014 ) 502 – 511 6th International Conference on Sustainability in Energy and Buildings SEB-14 Thermal memory and transition in lobby spaces Gloria A Vargasa *, Fionn Stevensona aThe University of Sheffield - School of Architecture,The Arts Tower , Western Bank , Sheffield S10 2TN, United Kingdom Abstract This paper investigates people’s short term thermal history in transitional lobby spaces. It sets out the first stage for exploring the possibility that repeated short term experiences can modify people’s long term thermal history and thermal memory towards a better thermal adaptation. Data from 50 lobby spaces in Higher Education Institutions (HEI) in the UK was collected in order to identify lobby typologies. Fieldwork was carried out during the summer of 2013 in three different buildings in Sheffield, UK. Surveys involved 610 questionnaires along with simultaneous environmental monitoring at four specific points and two sequences of spaces from exterior to an interior environment. People’s thermal perception was analysed in space sequences with lobby and without lobby. Methodology and initial results are presented in this paper. Outcomes suggest that people’s thermal perception can be altered over short periods of time. Temperature differences from one space to another, temperature sequences and direction are the main factors affecting people’s thermal memory in the short term. The paper provides valuable insights on the key factors that impact upon people´s adaptation and tolerance to changing thermal experiences. © 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Steve Betney (BSc Physics 1965) Thank you This magazine is the result of a request for memories of student life from alumni of The University of Sheffield who graduated in the years 1965 to 1984. The publication provides a glimpse into an interesting period in the University’s history with the rapid expansion of the campus and halls of residence. The eyewitness accounts of the range and quality of bands promoted by the Students’ Union are wonderful testimony to the importance of Sheffield as a city of music. And the activities of students during the Rag Parade and Boat Race would create panic in the Health and Safety Executive if repeated today. I wish to thank everyone who responded so generously with their time and sent us their recollections and photos. Just a fraction of the material appears here; all of the responses will become part of the University Archives.
