Call for Papers
We are excited to announce that high-quality eSim 2024 papers will be selected and published in a special issue “eSim 2024” of the Journal of Building Physics. We welcome paper submissions on the following topics:
COVID impact and response in building design and operation
Indoor air quality and ventilation
Modelling and simulation of thermal, airflow, moisture, lighting, acoustics
Energy conversion, storage, distribution, and control systems modelling
Occupancy, occupant behaviour and comfort modelling
Uncertainty assessment, sensitivity analysis for building performance
Calibration of building performance simulation models
Building-grid interactions modelling
Controls-oriented modelling
Model-based predictive controls
Fault detection and diagnostics
Performance benchmarking and inverse modelling
Real-world case studies using novel aspects of building performance simulation
Submission Guidelines
At eSim 2024, we solicit two types of submissions. All submissions require In-Person presentation to be published:
- Regular papers (maximum eight pages)
- Notes papers (maximum four pages)
Notes papers are intended to discuss preliminary research results, present new research directions, describe new software or datasets. Notes papers are a new paper submission type to eSim to encourage young researchers and research teams entering this field of research to share their work and industry participants that may not be able to devote resources to a full paper. Notes papers will be assessed based on the novelty of ideas, potential for impact, and quality of presentation.
Submitted papers must be unpublished and not be currently under review for any other publication. Submissions must be single-spaced US Letter (8.5” x 11”) pages, including figures, tables, references and appendices. All submissions must follow the Word Template or LaTeX Template
