SHBE

SHBE stands for Sustainable Human-Building Ecosystem. It is a project funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF). It started in 2013 where the Investigators were from Nova Southeastern University, University of North Carolina at Charlotte, Carnegie-Mellon University, Louisiana State University and Florida State University. The five research themes are (1) Building physical system and environment modeling, (2) Human behavior modeling, (3) Social/policy impact modeling, (4) Dynamic life cycle assessment (LCA) and business ecosystem modeling, and (5) Model integration and validation. The network participants discuss interdisciplinary education for graduate studies with focus “that integrates human behavioral science, social and economic sciences in tandem with sciences of building design, engineering, and metrology for data validation of building energy consumption and occupant comforts.”
