项目摘要
Buildings are a major consumer of energy in the U.S. The goal of this research is to create a human-centered design and engineering environment for sustainable buildings where occupant thermal state (sensation, comfort and acceptability) and thermally-driven behaviors are effectively measured to reduce building performance gaps between predicted and actual energy performance. Specifically, this project examines if immersive virtual environments (IVEs) integrated within a climate chamber, i.e., multi-sensory IVEs, are effective for observing thermally-driven occupant behavior and for improving models of human-building interactions. The findings could result in new and effective strategies for reducing energy consumption in buildings. Building on pilot studies by the PIs, this project will: 1) determine if the virtual experience of participants significantly alters their thermal states and thermally-driven behaviors compared to in-situ experience; 2) determine if seasonal mismatch of immersive virtual environment and actual environment (i.e., simulating winter during summer data collection) significantly alters the thermal state and thermally-driven occupant behaviors compared to those in seasonally matched IVE conditions; and 3) create a mechanism of sharing IVE data and analytics on the virtual information fabric infrastructure (VIFI) platform to support the replication of science in a large multi-institutional research community. Currently, designers and engineers rely on predictive models based on data from existing buildings to make decisions about future building designs. When the impact of context on occupants is ignored, performance gaps emerge between the projected and actual energy performance of a building. Evidence from both academic research and practice strongly suggests that IVEs are capable of eliciting human responses to well-designed stimuli such as in lightingdesign, but conventional IVEs alone cannot simulate cooling or heating as in real buildings. Climate chambers have long been used as a reliable apparatus for studying occupant thermal states, but they cannot easily induce occupant behavior in response to design contexts. Multi-sensory IVEs combine the strength of IVEs and climate chambers, but the effectiveness of multi-sensory IVEs to produce comparable thermal state and thermally-driven occupant behavior as in-situ experiments is unknown. This new knowledge will enable the creation of context-sensitive, human-centered approaches using multi-sensory IVEs for building design and engineering, and occupant behavior data collection. Sustainable buildings are essential for sustaining the wellbeing of individuals, families and the society. Buildings consume more than 30% of the world's primary energy, largely for providing thermal comfort. A better understanding of occupant's thermally-driven occupant behavior during design is thus critical tosustainable buildings. Multi-sensory IVEs not only provide a new tool to support the design and engineering of sustainable buildings, but also present intellectual challenges to other scientific fields. To maximize the impact of this research, the PIs will create a novel approach for data sharing and research replication by collaborating with researchers in the VIFI team, a research coordination network called sustainable human-building ecosystems (SHBE), as well as with technical committees of ASHRAE.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
建筑物是美国能源的主要消费者,本研究的目标是为可持续建筑创造一个以人为本的设计和工程环境,有效地测量居住者的热状态(感觉,舒适度和可接受性)和热驱动行为,以减少预测和实际能源性能之间的建筑性能差距。具体来说,该项目研究了是否将沉浸式虚拟环境(伊韦斯)集成在气候室中,即,多感官伊韦斯对于观察热驱动的居住者行为和改进人与建筑物相互作用的模型是有效的。研究结果可能会导致新的和有效的战略,以减少建筑物的能源消耗。基于PI的试点研究,该项目将:1)确定与现场体验相比,参与者的虚拟体验是否显著改变了他们的热状态和热驱动行为; 2)确定沉浸式虚拟环境和实际环境的季节性不匹配(即,与季节性匹配的IVE条件相比,在夏季数据收集期间模拟冬季)显著改变了热状态和热驱动的居住者行为;以及3)在虚拟信息结构基础设施(VIFI)平台上创建共享IVE数据和分析的机制,以支持大型多机构研究社区中的科学复制。目前,设计师和工程师依靠基于现有建筑数据的预测模型来做出未来建筑设计的决策。当环境对居住者的影响被忽略时,建筑物的预计和实际能源性能之间就会出现性能差距。来自学术研究和实践的证据强烈表明,伊韦斯能够引起人类对精心设计的刺激的反应,例如在照明设计中,但传统的伊韦斯单独不能模拟真实的建筑物中的冷却或加热。长期以来,气候室一直被用作研究乘员热状态的可靠装置,但它们不能容易地诱导乘员响应于设计环境的行为。多感觉伊韦斯结合了伊韦斯和气候室的强度,但多感觉伊韦斯产生与原位实验相当的热状态和热驱动的居住者行为的有效性尚不清楚。这一新知识将使创造上下文敏感,以人为本的方法,使用多传感器伊韦斯的建筑设计和工程,以及居住者的行为数据收集。可持续建筑对于维持个人、家庭和社会的福祉至关重要。建筑物消耗了世界上30%以上的一次能源,主要是为了提供热舒适性。因此,在设计过程中更好地理解居住者的热驱动行为对可持续建筑至关重要。多感官伊韦斯不仅为支持可持续建筑的设计和工程提供了一种新的工具,而且还对其他科学领域提出了智力挑战。为了最大限度地发挥这项研究的影响,PI将通过与VIFI团队的研究人员合作,创建一种新的数据共享和研究复制方法,VIFI团队是一个名为可持续人类建设生态系统(SHBE)的研究协调网络,该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
