Building Energy Systems and Simulation – Research Group Est. 2015
Lab Name and Logo Description
Our lab focuses on HVAC and renewable energy systems, with an emphasis on computer science techniques—particularly artificial intelligence (AI)—for simulation, control, performance optimization, diagnostics, and intelligent management.
The emphasis on “Systems” in our logo reflects our philosophy: not merely developing AI-based technologies, but creatively applying them to address complex challenges in energy systems, including those in the built environment.
The waveform symbol, originally inspired by the geometry of fluid transport systems such as piping, has evolved to represent the dynamic behavior of energy systems. It also embodies our pursuit of digital twin-based approaches for prediction, control, and optimization, which inherently capture and respond to the dynamics of complex systems.
