Those don't sound like research papers but articles... What Journal(s) are you finding these papers in?

Is it only a research paper if it is published in a journal? What about conference papers?

Here's an example I was reading recently which doesn't go into much detail: http://www.ibpsa.org/proceedings/asim2012/0097.pdf from the International Building Performance Simulation Association (IBPSA) conference.

Conferences certainly count if they are refereed (peer reviewed).

I don't know anything about that field, but that paper certainly doesn't pass the first glance test that others have mentioned in this thread. Good figures, etc.
