BS2013

13th International Conference of the International Building Performance Simulation Association.
25th - 30th August 2013, FRANCE

The conference will be co-organized at Savoie Technolac by INES (CEA, university of Savoie, CNRS and CSTB) and INSA Lyon, one hour from the metropolitan area of Lyon, in the heart of the Alps mountain (Mont-Blanc) halfway between Chambéry, the third largest city in the Alps, and the spa town of Aix-les-Bains,

We are looking forward to seeing you in FRANCE, http://www.bs2013.fr



Conference session organized by IBPSA-Italy

The Free University of Bolzano, with the participation of the University of Trento and the support of IBPSA-Italy, is organizing a special session on building performance simulation at the 8th Energy Forum Conference that will take place in Bressanone (Italy) on November the 5th and 6th 2013. Call for papers.

IBPSA Awards

The International Building Performance Simulation Association (IBPSA) makes three awards for outstanding work in the building performance simulation field. These awards are made on a biennial basis at each Building Simulation Conference, providing there is a qualified candidate. Read more ... 

Simupedia project

The idea of the Simupedia project (initiated by IBPSA-Germany and IBPSA-USA) is the joint development of an online guidebook on building simulation (open to all). Simupedia explains, why simulations are relevant for sustainable concepts in energy efficient building design. The platform shall be applicable to increase the awareness, to show customers the added value that simulation provides, which type of simulation is adequate for certain planning tasks, it shall give practical advise about benefits and limitations, and explain why simulation supported engineering is superior to traditional instruments. The knowledge is provided at two levels, an expert level for simulationists, and a basic level. We are just at the beginning – and we need volunteers to contribute!
