Building Simulation 2009
University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, Scotland
27th – 30th July

Call for abstracts for BS'09

Conference website: www.bs2009.org.uk


Abstracts may be submitted via our website above. Please note that abstracts are due by 1 September 2008 when the review process will start. Late abstracts will be accepted up to a cut-off date of 22nd September.

IBPSA will hold its 11th bi-annual international conference, the leading international conference in building performance simulation, in summer 2009 at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. Glasgow, Scotland’s largest city, has an unrivalled choice of museums, theatres, parks, science centre and shopping, set within some of the finest Victorian architecture in Europe. In addition, Glasgow has a worldwide reputation as a welcoming city and is firmly established and experienced as a major centre for conferences and international events.

The conference organizers are seeking high quality papers and will limit the number of peer-reviewed oral presentations. Submissions will therefore be rigorously peer-reviewed. Simulation-based papers on the following themes are welcomed:

  1. advances in building physics
  2. human aspects of the indoor environment
  3. building services
  4. commissioning and operation
  5. energy capture and conversion
  6. advances in applications
  7. validation and calibration
  8. software issues
  9. simulation in design practice
  10. regulation/code compliance
  11. application day case studies*

* One day of the conference will be devoted to practical applications, particularly focusing on simulation in practice with illustrative case studies. Therefore, a limited number of additional papers are invited in order to enable practitioners to demonstrate the benefits flowing from the recent upsurge in the use of simulation in building design. If you wish to contribute such a paper, please ensure it is marked as an application day case study in the abstract submission.

Abstracts should be in plain text and no more than 500 words. They should describe clearly the research objectives and new knowledge arising from the research.
