In this presentation, Krista Palen of Transsolar and Christoph Reinhart of the MIT Building Technology Program will discuss emerging simulation techniques across industry and academia, including applications of daylight, thermal, and natural ventilation simulation.
Software engineering has a lot in common with building design. A diverse, technical team of individuals work independently on a series of tasks that are intended to lead to an integrated product.
Research into the next generation of simulation tools and techniques is being carried out at universities, but much of this information is not transferred to the practitioners.
This videos has been free to view for all. This presentation will explore the challenges and opportunities to optimize hospital projects.
This videos has been made free to view for all. As buildings age, retrofits are becoming an increasingly important topic for the ever-growing and aging existing building stock. Following construction, a building's energy footprint typically remains relatively stagnant, effectivel
This video is free to view for all. Climate change is one of the biggest challenges faced by our generation with vast impacts on our planet and public health.
This video is free to view for all. In this presentation, Alejandra and Kimberly will give an insight into the correspondence of building simulation and energy modeling with Net Zero Boston Zoning Policy and Mass Save C&I New Construction programming respectively.
This recording is free to view for all. Note that the presentation starts at 7:15. The daylight metrics have been through lots of changes in the last decade.
On March 23, 2021, IBPSA-USA held a Committee Members Recruitment party, which was a fun interactive event where folks learned more about the diverse committees of IBPSA-USA.
This video is free to view for all. Passive house, or passive building, is an integrated building design and construction concept that employs building science fundamentals to attain high levels of comfort, durability, energy efficiency, and indoor health.
This video is free to view for everyone. Multi-unit residential buildings (MURB) represent more than one half of the new housing built in the USA and Canada.
Please join the Boston chapter of IBPSA for a networking session over Zoom and presentations from Chris Mackey and Mingbo Peng covering topics in fully customizable HVAC modeling workflows (Ironbug) for full-building energy modeling in Grasshopper and Honeybee.
This video has been made free to view for all. Note that the presentation starts at 5:10. COVID has shaken the building design, construction, and operations industries.
This video has been made free to view for all. Urban building modeling tools are developing rapidly; these tools use emerging simulation workflows for specific urban environmental design tasks, such as assessing the impacts of energy efficiency technologies at a district scale.
This recording has been made free to view for all.
This recording has been made free to view for all. The pandemic has led to finding new and innovative technologies to reduce the spread of virus indoors.
This video has been made free to view for all. Please join the Boston Chapter of IBPSA-USA for a networking session over Zoom, and presentations covering topics from the conference.
This video has been made free to view for all. Buildings emit about 14 Gt of greenhouse gases every year making them one of the largest contributors to global carbon emissions. 75% of these emissions from buildings are a result of operating them.
This video has been made free to view for all. It's time for a new approach to daylighting design. Current daylighting strategies, employed on virtually every green building, are leftover, inappropriate, concepts from a bygone era of high lighting power density.
Annual luminance maps provide meaningful evaluations for occupants’ visual comfort, preferences, and perception. However, acquiring annual luminance maps require labor-intensive and time-consuming simulations or impracticable long-term field measurements.
Please join the Boston Chapter of IBPSA-USA for a networking session over Zoom and presentations from Irmak Turan and
This video has been made free to view for all. This two-part presentation introduces the indoor air quality modeling software CONTAM and the web-based tool FaTIMA for modeling the Fate and Transport of Indoor Microbiological Aerosols.
This Boston Chapter event features presentations from Nathaniel Jones and Holly Samuelson covering advances in building simulation research.
Internet of things has revolutionized the way devices, actuators, buildings occupant, building operators, and utilities interact.
As greater quantities of variable renewable energy are integrated into the electric grid the hour to hour variation in emissions is only increasing. This is at odds with how building designers have traditionally treated all kilowatt hours as equal from an emissions standpoint.
