Journal Guide

The Journal of Architectural Education (JAE) has been published since 1947 for the purpose of enhancing architectural scholarship in design, history, urbanism, cultural studies, technology, theory, and practice. Published on behalf of the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture, JAE appears twice annually in October and March, with the October issue being the first of a new volume.

The journal will cover, but is not limited to, the following topics:

• Acoustics
• Architectural design
• Building maintenance
• Building materials
• Building pathology
• Building performance
• Coatings and claddings
• Computer aided-design and simulation
• Construction engineering management
• Construction technology
• Energy efficiency
• Environmental design and assessment
• Façade and envelope engineering
• Facilities management
• Fire safety engineering
• Health and wellbeing
• HVAC systems
• Indoor environment
• Inspection and diagnosis
• Life cycle assessment
• Lighting
• Retrofit and refurbishment of existing buildings
• Service life prediction
• Strengthening and rehabilitation
• Structural analysis
• Structural assessment
• Structural design
• Structural monitoring and testing
• Sustainable buildings
• Thermo-hygrometric design
• Water systems and sanitation
• Whole life cost

Technical notes on projects, codes and standards are also welcomed.

The Journal of Building Performance Simulation (JBPS) is the official journal of the International Building Performance Simulation Association (IBPSA). IBPSA is a non-profit international society of computational building performance simulation researchers, developers, practitioners and users, dedicated to improving the design, construction, operation and maintenance of new and existing buildings worldwide.The JBPS is an international refereed journal, publishing only articles of the highest quality that are original, cutting-edge, well-researched and of significance to the international community. The journal also publishes original review papers and researched case studies of international significance.The wide scope of JBPS embraces research, technology and tool development related to building performance modelling and simulation, as well as their applications to design, operation and management of the built environment. This includes modelling and simulation aspects of building performance in relation to other research areas such as building physics, environmental engineering, mechanical engineering, control engineering, facility management, architecture, ergonomics, psychology, physiology, computational engineering, information technology and education. The scope of topics includes the following:Theoretical aspects of building performance modelling and simulation.Methodology and application of building performance simulation for any stage of design, construction, commissioning, operation or management of buildings and the systems which service them.Uncertainty, sensitivity analysis, calibration, and optimization.Methods and algorithms for performance optimization of building and the systems which service them.Methods and algorithms for software design, validation, verification and solution methods. All articles published in JBPS have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by independent expert referees.
