Planning Energy-Efficient Buildings and Cities

2018-03-08 , Augenbroe, Godfried , Guhathakurta, Subhro , Mallen, Evan , Yang, Perry Pei-Ju

Urban built form plays a crucial role in energy consumption, hence planning energy-efficient cities requires thoughtful design at multiple scales -- from buildings, to neighborhoods, to cities.

Fried Augenbroe: COA Research Forum

2009-10-29 , Augenbroe, Godfried

Since 1997, Fried Augenbroe heads the Building Technology area in the Doctoral Program in the College of Architecture at the Georgia Institute of Technology in the USA, where he teaches graduate courses and conducts research in the fields of building performance concepts and simulation, control of smart systems, e-Business, system monitoring and diagnostics. He has also established an active research record in building process studies, construction project management, web hosted collaboration, and knowledge management, dealing with the development of software tools, their interoperability and their business integration. In the field of energy modeling Augenbroe has led large building energy simulation projects for the development and application of energy saving technologies in buildings and residential construction. He has developed building energy performance metrics for large institutional real estate managers such as the General Services Administration in the US. He is also active in the development of Communities of Practice exploiting the emergence of WEB 2.0 social computing environments. As one of the first applications he is developing a CoP in healthcare design.

The Future of Energy and Design

2016-11-11 , Augenbroe, Godfried , Breen, Rita , Gentry, T. Russell , Jackson, Roderick , MIller, Justin , Schmidt, Jacqueline

Every year, the world’s population increases by 65 million people, and over the next 13 years, 600 cities will account for nearly 65 percent of global GDP growth. This afternoon symposium will explore ideas related to 21st urban housing in the context of changing urban demographics, sustainability targets and alternative energy requirements, via guest presentations, audience involvement and exemplary design projects. There are a number of new initiatives focused on understanding the forces in play as urbanized areas like Tokyo, Seattle, Atlanta, San Francisco, and New York City work to address issues associated with designing livable, energy efficient and affordable urban dwellings. As cities like Atlanta continue to experience a move away from satellite single family bedroom communities towards center city, mid and high-rise housing blocks, our challenge is to create sustained focus and dialogue on ecology, opportunity and affordability.

Energy Saving in the Built Environment

2011-03-31 , Augenbroe, Godfried

A brief overview of the energy saving opportunities in the built environment followed by a review of energy saving strategies for new "green building" design as well as retrofits of existing buildings. The talk will conclude with a critical review of current energy design methods, a reality check of the design of zero energy buildings, and a discussion of the much needed large scale energy retrofits.
