Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE) Professor Bing Dong has been awarded as an International Building Performance Simulation Association (IBPSA) World Fellow for his research contributions, mentoring and outreach within the field.

The IBPSA Fellow is awarded to individuals who have made significant contributions to the field of building performance simulation or have demonstrated their expertise through teaching, research, simulation code development or applying building simulation on large-scale projects. To be eligible, recipients must have also been actively involved in the field for at least ten years.

This award is very prestigious. IBPSA only gives fellow awards every two years and its nominated by six world experts in this area, says Dong. Im looking forward to further contributing my knowledge and advancing the community of energy efficiency buildings to achieve net-zero energy and carbon buildings and cities. This achievement means a lot to me.

Dong has distinguished himself through impactful contributions such as his pioneering research in occupant behavior modeling, development of novel simulation and control models to solve buildings-to-grid integration control problems, and education of junior researchers and students among other notable breakthroughs within building performance simulation.

This is indeed a great recognition for many years of continuing excellence Professor Dong has demonstrated in the area of building performance simulation, says MAE Department Chair and professor in manufacturing enterprises, Young Moon. The association awards IBPSA fellows biennially and this year, 12 fellows were awarded worldwide with only two being in the USA. I am very glad that Dr. Dongs leadership and contributions in this critical field now have been recognized worldwide.
