[BLDG-SIM] IBPSA 2001

[Nathan Mendes]

Dear colleague,

We take this opportunity to e-mail you information on the
next Building Simulation conference (see text below), promoted by
IBPSA (International Building Performance Simulation Association),
to be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, August 13-15th, 2001.

Please, visit the homepage http://www.labeee.ufsc.br/bs2001/
where you can have all information about the conference
and can also download the folder.

I apologize if this is not the first time you receive this message.

Yours Sincerely,

Nathan Mendes
Organizing Committee - IBPSA 2001

IBPSA aims to advance and promote the science of building performance
simulation in order to improve the design, construction, operation and
maintenance
of new and existing buildings worldwide. Any good quality paper related
to this
mission will be acceptable.

Important Dates:
Abstracts due: September 15, 2000
Manuscript due: February 15, 2001
Final papers due: June 1, 2001
Conference: August 13-15, 2001

Example topics are modelling and simulation of:
   -Building physics including heat, air and moisture flow, heating and
     cooling loads, electric and day lighting, acoustics, smoke
transport...
   - Heating, ventilation and air-conditoning systems
   - Energy supply systems including renewable energy systems, thermal
      storage systems, district heating and cooling, combined heating
and power systems
    -Human factors including health, productivity, thermal comfort,
      visual comfort, acoustical comfort, indoor air quality
    -Building services such as lighting systems, sound/vibration control

     systems, fire/smoke and emergency control systems, cold/hot water
supply
     systems, sewerage systems
    - Advances and recent developments in modelling and simulation
      technology including coupling with CAD, product modelling,
software
     interoperability, user interface issues, validation and calibration
techniques.

All these topics may be addressed at different levels of resolution;
from urban scale to microscopic scalefor different stages in the
building life cycle;
from early sketch design, via detailed design to construction,
commissioning, operation,
control and maintenance of new and existing buildings worldwide.
