    Building and Environment is an international journal that publishes original research papers and review articles related to building science and human interaction with the built environment. The Journal invites research articles conveying robust, tested knowledge on: •technologies and integrated systems for high performance buildings and cities •thermal, acoustic, visual, air quality building science and human impacts •tools for the design and decision-making community, including tested computational, economic, educational and policy tools. •solutions for mitigating environmental impacts and achieving low carbon, sustainable built environments. The Journal is focused on new knowledge, rigorously verified with measurement and analysis, related to the environmental performance of buildings in different scales, ranging from cities, communities, buildings, to building systems and assemblies.

    Physical Review Letters (PRL) is the world’s premier physics letter journal. It publishes short, high quality reports of significant and notable results in the full arc of fundamental and interdisciplinary physics research. PRL provides readers with the most influential developments and transformative ideas in physics with the goal of moving physics forward. We are the most cited physics journal — every two minutes someone cites a PRL. Authors gain high visibility, rapid publication, and broad dissemination of their work. To maintain its mission of providing high-profile publication of important results in all areas of physics, PRL maintains strict acceptance criteria. In addition to being scientifically valid, published Letters must meet our criteria of impact, innovation, and interest by doing at least one of the following: Open a new area of research, or new avenues of research within an established area, and therefore significantly influence the research of others. Solve, or make essential steps towards solving, a critical outstanding problem. If presenting a new technique, or methodology, it should play a pivotal role in future physics research, and make apparent its immediate consequences for physicists. In rare instances a Letter may also be of unusual intrinsic interest to our broad audience. Like all American Physical Society (APS) Physical Review journals, PRL is community driven and operated by physicists. This means that its mission, scope, and standards are ultimately established by the needs of our community, rather than commercial interests. PRL has a strong international scope with the majority of published articles, and active referees, originating from outside the United States of America.

    Building Simulation: An International Journal publishes original, high quality, peer-reviewed research papers and review articles dealing with modeling and simulation of buildings including their systems. The goal is to promote the field of building science and technology to such a level that modeling will eventually be used in every aspect of building construction as a routine instead of an exception. Of particular interest are papers that reflect recent developments and applications of modeling tools and their impact on advances of building science and technology. Paper submission is solicited for the following five fixed sections: A: Building thermal, lighting, and acoustics modeling B: Building systems and components C: Indoor/outdoor airflow and air quality D: Architecture and human behavior E: Advances in modeling and simulation tools The above scope will develop as the field of building simulation evolves. Authors are encouraged to contribute papers from different angles of interest, making Building Simulation: An International Journal a dynamic channel and valuable resource for new scientific findings and engineering applications.

    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. JBPS publishes articles of the highest quality that are original, cutting-edge, well-researched and of significance to the international community. The journal also offers a forum for original review papers and researched case studies. The Journal 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 submitted to JBPS are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and if found suitable for further consideration, enter peer review by independent, anonymous, expert referees. The Journal operates double-blind peer review and all submissions are to be made online using the JBPS ScholarOne site

    PyQt is a set of Python v2 and v3 bindings for Digia's Qt application framework and runs on all platforms supported by Qt including Windows, MacOS/X and Linux. PyQt5 supports Qt v5. PyQt4 supports Qt v4 and will build against Qt v5. The bindings are implemented as a set of Python modules and contain over 620 classes. Like Qt, PyQt is available on all platforms under a variety of licenses including the GNU GPL v3 and a commercial license. Unlike Qt, PyQt is not available under the LGPL. You can purchase the commercial version of PyQt here. PyQt does not include a copy of Qt. You must obtain a correctly licensed copy of Qt yourself. However, a binary Windows installers of the GPL version of both PyQt5 and PyQt4 are provided and this includes a copy of the LGPL version of Qt.

      The journal Energy Conversion and Management provides a forum for publishing original contributions and comprehensive technical review articles of interdisciplinary and original research on all important energy topics. The topics considered include energy generation, utilization, conversion, storage, transmission, conservation, management and sustainability. These topics typically involve various types of energy such as mechanical, thermal, nuclear, chemical, electromagnetic, magnetic and electric. These energy types cover all known energy resources, including renewable resources (e.g., solar, bio, hydro, wind, geothermal and ocean energy), fossil fuels and nuclear resources. Papers are welcome that investigate or consider the prospects of energy technologies, devices, systems, materials, processes, operation, performance, maintenance and control. Priority may be given to interdisciplinary energy subjects that deal with advanced technologies and that consider more than one of these methodologies: modeling, experimental, analysis and optimization, with appropriate verifications of the findings.

      The pack­age pro­vides sev­eral macros to ad­just boxed con­tent. One pur­pose is to sup­ple­ment the stan­dard graph­ics pack­age, which de­fines the macros \re­size­box, \scale­box and \ro­tate­box , with the macros\trim­box and \clip­box. The main fea­ture is the gen­eral \ad­just­box macro which ex­tends the “key=value” in­ter­face of \in­clude­graph­ics from the graph­ics pack­age and ap­plies it to gen­eral text con­tent. Ad­di­tional pro­vided box macros are \lap­box, \margin­box, \min­size­box, \max­size­box and \phan­tombox. All macros use the col­lect­box pack­age to read the con­tent as a box and not as a macro ar­gu­ment. This al­lows for all forms of con­tent in­clud­ing spe­cial ma­te­rial like ver­ba­tim con­tent. A spe­cial fea­ture of col­lect­box is used to pro­vide match­ing en­vi­ron­ments with the iden­ti­cal names as the macros.
