[Wangda Zuo]

Dear all,

The Sustainable Building and Societies Laboratory<https://www.colorado.edu/lab/sbs/> (SBS Lab) at the University of Colorado Boulder currently has six fully-funded Ph.D. positions in multi-scale modeling and optimization for the design and operation of smart, sustainable and resilient cities starting in the Spring/Summer/Fall 2021.

The research topics include 1) Explore multi-scale modeling technique for future smart and connected cities<https://www.colorado.edu/lab/sbs/nsf-bigdata-scc> using the equation-based Modelica language and building upon our open source Smart and Connected Community (SCC) Modelica library<https://www.colorado.edu/lab/sbs/scc-library> and apply it to the communities in Colorado; 2) Develop and perform field test of advanced control strategies for grid-interactive resilient communities<https://www.colorado.edu/lab/sbs/nsf-crisp-resiliencecity> expanding upon our open source Net Zero Energy Community (NZEC) Modelica library<https://www.colorado.edu/lab/sbs/nzec-library> based on a real-world net zero energy community in Florida; 3) Create open source Modelica models for the optimal design of grid-interactive efficient district energy system<https://www.colorado.edu/lab/sbs/grid-interactive-efficient-district-energy-system>; 4) Investigate holistic building system modeling and control methods based on our open source end-to-end data center cooling system modeling and optimization package<https://www.colorado.edu/lab/sbs/data-center-package>; 5) Invent smart sensor networks and machine learning methods to modernize cities via smart garden alleys with application in Indonesia<https://www.colorado.edu/lab/sbs/smart-garden-alleys>.
