Strathprints makes available scholarly Open Access content by researchers in the Department of Architecture based within the Faculty of Engineering.

Research activity at Architecture explores a wide variety of significant research areas within architecture and the built environment. Among these is the better exploitation of innovative construction technologies and ICT to optimise 'total building performance', as well as reduce waste and environmental impact. Sustainable architectural and urban design is an important component of this. To this end, the Cluster for Research in Design and Sustainability (CRiDS) focuses its research energies towards developing resilient responses to the social, environmental and economic challenges associated with urbanism and cities, in both the developed and developing world.

Abstract

The desire to improve short-term predictions of wind speed and direction has motivated the development of a spatial covariance-based predictor in a complex valued multichannel structure. Wind speed and direction are modelled as the magnitude and phase of complex time series and measurements from multiple geographic locations are embedded in a complex vector which is then used as input to a multichannel Wiener prediction filter. Building on a C-linear cyclo-stationary predictor, a new widely linear filter is developed and tested on hourly mean wind speed and direction measurements made at 13 locations in the UK over 6 years. The new predictor shows a reduction in mean squared error at all locations. Furthermore it is found that the scale of that reduction strongly depends on conditions local to the measurement site.
