Biography:
Suhendri is a young lecturer and researcher from Institut Teknologi Bandung, Indonesia and currently doing his PhD in the Buildings, Energy and Environment (BEE) Research Group. Suhendri holds a bachelor degree in architecture, and his interest in building physics and sustainable building design led him to take an MSc in Sustainable Building Technology in the University of Nottingham. Ever since his graduation from his master degree, he has worked as a research assistant and teacher in the School of Architecture, Planning, and Policy Development (SAPPD), Institut Teknologi Bandung. His research interest is generally in the field of building physics, especially in the topics of low-carbon buildings, passive design architecture, computational fluid dynamics for built environment, occupant's comfort and indoor environmental quality, etc.
I completed my bachelor degree in architectural engineering in Jordan and I started my career as a trainee architect, after a while, I decided to move to the academic field as a teacher assistant in different architecture schools in Jordan. After completing my master degree, I worked as a part-time lecturer. I am Interested in sustainable building technology to improve the overall performance inside the building. My PhD research is about improving daylight and energy performance through Grasshopper as a parametric software based on Rhinoceros 3D. I am currently investigating innovative daylighting-energy system cooperation using bifacial PV glazing and split louver system. Besides the simulation tools plugin integrated into Grasshopper parametric tools, a real scale experiment is ongoing to validate the work.
