Summary
Giuseppe De Michele is a Senior Researcher with a decade of expertise in building physics and complex façade systems, specializing in thermo-optical characterization, daylighting, and energy-efficient control strategies. Based at Eurac Research in Trentino-Alto Adige, he leads the g-value lab and bridges lab measurements, dynamic simulation (including TRNSYS and Radiance), and field-tested control implementations to improve occupant comfort and reduce energy use. His work spans proposal leadership, industry partnerships, and mentoring PhD students while translating advanced research into practical façade solutions. Notably, he developed a TRNSYS daylighting component (TypeDLT) integrating BSDF-driven Radiance workflows — a rare combination of experimental rig design and simulation-tool development. International collaborations, including a visiting PhD stint at Berkeley Lab, underscore his ability to tackle diverse climatic and technical challenges. He seeks to continue converting theoretical insights into scalable, sustainable building technologies.
