*Ask a Modeler: What is the Best Approach to Simulating Geometrically
Complex Buildings?*

This month Adam Ozinsky, Environmental Designer at Atelier Ten, replies: *"Dear
Not Always Right-Angled, A medium-famous architect once commented: if it's
not a right angle it’s a wrong angle. As square as that approach may seem,
it did make modelling slightly more straightforward than with some of the
geometrically complex creations we see in vogue now. For better or for
worse, complexity has made our days as building performance modellers more
challenging. And our nights longer..."*

*June 24: Design for COVID-19 and Beyond: New Use Cases for Computational
Fluid Dynamics and Multi-Agent Simulation - IBPSA-USA Research Committee*

COVID-19 has challenged our community to rethink the way buildings are
designed and engineered. In this talk, researchers at Autodesk will present
two projects that make use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), and a
third project involving multi-agent simulation, to explore the potential
benefits of these detailed modeling techniques in the face of infectious
diseases and climate change.
