چکیده

Building Information Modeling (BIM) and its open standard Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) are becoming popular in the design phase in the Architecture and Construction industry. Here, we focus on integrating BIM and DEVS (Discrete Event systems Specification) simulation of occupancy analysis. We present a case study for Copenhagen’s New Elephant House, where people can move with different direction probabilities and wait randomly when visiting in the two floors of this building. The idea is to automate to extraction of building information that can be subsequently used in a simulation. We also show how to obtain advanced 3D visualization within BIM authoring tools. This work brings designers to understand better among different building properties occupancy management and future improvement.

Modeling pedestrian behavior with Cell-DEVS: theory and applications

In this work, we provide an approach for Modeling and Simulation (M&S) of crowds using Cellular Discrete EVent System Specification (Cell-DEVS). We present many examples of Cellular Discrete EVent System Specification entitybased crowd models, and we show how to use Cellular Discrete EVent System Specification for entity-based modeling and simulation of crowds. We provide an approach for using ...

Integrating Building Information Modeling & Cell-DEVS Simulation.dvi

We present the development of an Interactive Environment System (IES). The IES is used for simulating Cell-DEVS models built in CD++ that interact with a Building Information Modeling(BIM) system using Autodesk Revit architecture and Autodesk 3ds Max. CD++ is a modeling and simulation tool that was created to study complex systems by using a discrete event cell-based approach. It was successful...

A simulation as a service methodology with application for crowd modeling, simulation and visualization

Crowd modeling and simulation (M&S) has been used to support the analysis of the behavior of crowds, in order to predict the impact of pedestrian movement and to test design alternatives. In recent years, crowd M&S has become more complex, and new technologies such as CAD (computer-aided design) and BIM (building information modeling) authoring tools are being used to support the process. There...

Solutions for Scalability in Building Information Modeling and Simulation-Based Design

Simulation-based design can enable a number of advanced architectural and engineering applications, such as energy modeling, occupant behavior prediction, or structural integrity analysis. To help make simulation-based design practical, scalability in terms of data and computation is needed. By using a Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) approach—together with the RISE (RESTful Interoperability Sim...
