Energy exchanges between buildings is affected by urban fabric.As a matter of fact, heat exchange between adjacent buildings is due to convective and radiative heat flows.The main parameters which influence these heat exchange mechanisms are due to climate conditions such as air temperatures/humidity, wind speed/direction and solar irradiance.Most
Complex challenges are facing the food industry as it develops novel and innovative products for the consumer marketplace.Food processing and preservation are primarily based on achievement and maintenance of safety in order to protect consumers, as well as extending product shelf life under the relevant conditions of storage, transport and distrib
Apparel Bio-inspired asynchronous event-based vision sensors are currently introducing a paradigm shift in visual information processing.These new sensors rely on a stimulus-driven principle of light acquisition similar to biological retinas.They are event-driven and fully asynchronous, thereby reducing redundancy and encoding exact times of input
We present a model of disease transmission on a regular and small world network and compare different control options.Comparison is based on a total cost of epidemic, including cost Vases of palliative treatment of ill individuals and preventive cost aimed at vaccination or culling of susceptible individuals.Disease is characterized by pre-symptoma
Reinforced concrete structures under cyclic exposure to the corrosive environment such as the tidal zone as a part of marine structure entail the higher risk of steel corrosion.In this paper, chloride penetration in concrete exposed to the tidal zone was predicted using a combined moisture and chloride transport model.For the analysis of moisture H
