Dr Federico Tartarini
Senior Lecturer | Horizon Fellow | Engineer | YouTuber
School of Architecture Design and Planning
The University of Sydney
I specialise in indoor environmental quality (IEQ), thermal comfort, human thermophysiology, and building performance research. My mission is to develop occupant-centric tools and solutions that improve thermal comfort, health, productivity, and overall well-being in built environments.
My research integrates experimental, computational, and field studies to examine how indoor environments influence human performance and health outcomes. I am passionate about bridging research and practice together, hence, I am the main author of several widely used open-source tools.
I am also a YouTuber, there I share my research and teaching experiences with a global audience.
My Research
My research focuses on determining and quantifying the effect that the environment has on thermal comfort, productivity, health, and well-being.
Tools
I am the main author of pythermalcomfort, the CBE Thermal Comfort Tool, the CBE Clima Tool, Cozie for Apple and Fitbit, the HeatWatch, and SMA Extreme heat tool.
YouTube
I am a YouTube educator and I publish video tutorials about: LaTeX, Python, Thermal Comfort, LateX Beamer, Docusaurus, ReactJS.
