Research summary
AI-generated

Jorge Rojas works on building energy performance and construction technology, including how walls and roofs transfer heat and how thermal comfort can be modeled in buildings, as well as newer work on 3D concrete printing for construction, including automated quality inspection, digital twins, and robotic workflows. Earlier work focused on simulation methods for wall heat transfer and bioclimatic (climate-responsive) building design, while more recent publications shift toward automated and robotic construction methods and safety in 3D-printed construction.
