Modeling and design of high-energy performance, resilient building clusters

该研究方案旨在开发建模和设计策略，以优化建筑群的能源性能和弹性。将讨论以下短期目标：1)城市建筑群原型的设计及其代表性建筑的能源模型。原型的设计将结合不同的建筑类型和设计，城市形态和建筑系统。2)制定可扩展、灵活和全面的建模战略和关键绩效指标，以便在建筑和集群规模上整合先进技术和能源概念。3)制定策略，减轻各种应激源对城市建筑群绩效的负面影响。应激源将包括假想的灾难(包括流行病)的情景。将制定各种建筑类型和邻近景观的详细能源模型，纳入先进的能源效率措施(例如，建筑物和周围环境中的窗户、智能材料、遮阳设备)。单一代表性建筑的能源模型将被合并为城市规模的模型，这些模型考虑到社区设计(例如密度、街道布局)以及在开放区域设计的城市组件和技术。将利用模拟工具平台将单个建筑模型合并为大型集群模型，该模型考虑了能源消耗、不同来源的能源产生以及不同能源解决方案对环境的影响。与特定灾害(如停电、因自然灾害(如洪水)导致的居民流离失所、流行病等)相关的特定压力源情景对能源性能的影响将会被评估。将分析可用来应对这些压力因素的设计方面，如密度、建筑设计的变化以及技术的功能和组合。这项研究预计将在学术、研究和工业领域产生重大影响。根据模拟结果，将生成一个建筑群的数据库，将城市形态与能源选择和技术联系起来。这可以帮助包括政府在内的许多部门努力提高加拿大社区的复原力和可持续性。研究将揭示各种城市层面的设计参数、能源系统和能源组合对建筑群的能源和环境性能的影响。城市一级的综合建模战略提出了一种创新的方法，将建筑和邻里建筑和空间方面与先进技术以及能源和系统结合起来。这项研究可以为基于创新的可再生能源技术的工业发展提供激励。将这些技术整合到建筑物和城市地区，除了经济和环境效益外，还将为当地提供就业机会。

This research proposal aims at developing modeling and design strategies to optimize the energy performance and resilience of building clusters. The following short-term objectives will be addressed: 1) Design of archetypes of urban building clusters and energy modeling of their representative buildings. Archetypes will be designed to combine different building types and designs, urban forms and building systems. 2) Develop scalable, flexible and holistic modeling strategies, and key performance indicators, that allow the integration of advanced technologies and energy concepts, at building and cluster scales. 3) Develop strategies for mitigating the negative impact of various stressors on the performance of urban building clusters. Stressors will encompass scenarios of hypothetical disasters (including pandemics). Detailed energy models of various building types and adjacent landscape will be developed, incorporating advanced energy efficiency measures (e.g. fenestration, smart materials, shading devices in buildings and surroundings). Energy models of single representative buildings will be merged into urban-scale models that account for neighborhood design (e.g. density, street layout) and for urban components and technologies designed in open areas. A platform of simulation tools will be employed to merge individual building models into large cluster model, which takes into account energy consumption, energy generation from various sources and the environmental impact of different energy solutions. The effects on energy performance of selected scenarios of stressors associated with specific disasters (e.g. power outage, displacement of inhabitants due to natural disaster (e.g. flood), pandemics, etc.) will be evaluated. Design aspects that can be adopted to respond to these stressors, such as density, change in building design and functions and mixes of technologies will be analyzed. This research is expected to have a significant impact across the academic, research and industrial domains. A database of building clusters is to be generated, based on simulation results, relating urban form with energy options and technologies. This can assist many sectors, including the government, in efforts to increase resilience and sustainability of Canadian communities. The research will indicate impact of various urban-level design parameters, energy systems, and mix of energy sources on energy and environmental performance of building clusters. The integrated urban-level modelling strategies present an innovative approach that combines building and neighborhood architectural and spatial aspects with advanced technologies and energy sources and systems. This research can provide an incentive for industrial developments based on innovative renewable energy technologies. The integration of such technologies in buildings and urban areas will provide local employment opportunities, in addition to the economic and environmental benefits.
