Building Simulation Applications BSA 2024 - Proceedings of 6th IBPSA-Italy conference

BSA 2024 featured more than 100 participants and around 275 different authors, with a significant presence of delegates from 18 different countries, in particular from South Korea, Denmark, the United States of America, and India. The conference programme was organised in 13 sessions in three parallel tracks, providing 77 presentations overall, and covering the following topics: characterization of the building stock and special buildings, performance simulation of educational buildings, acoustic studies and simulations, energy efficiency measures and energy flexibility for the existing building stock, IEQ and occupants' behaviour, use of BIM and Machine Learning techniques to support advanced building design and optimization, simulation of the building envelope and hygrothermal analyses, modelling and simulation of HVAC and renewable energy systems, simulation of the building stock and urban-scale analyses, modelling and simulation of case-studies, modelling and simulation of facades and fenestration systems, and new tools and methods for BPS.
