Development of Climate Indices Using Local Weather Data for Shading Design

Development of Climate Indices Using Local Weather Data for Shading Design

The energy performance of buildings depends on how effectively the building envelope responds to climate. Architects, therefore, need to design building envelopes with the consideration of local climate characteristics in the early design stage. Simplified formulas were used that evaluate the heating and cooling energy demand of building envelopes, which were applied to a model building with en...

development of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles

a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...

هدف از این تحقیق، ارزیابی و بهبود متریک های موجود جهت تایید صحت نقشه های قدیمی سه بعدی برداری با استفاده از ابر نقطه حاصل از لیزر اسکن جدید شهر اصفهان می باشد . بنابراین ابر نقطه حاصل از لیزر اسکنر با چگالی حدودا سه نقطه در هر متر مربع جهت شناسایی عوارض تغییر کرده در نقشه های قدیمی سه بعدی استفاده شده است. تمرکز ما در این تحقیق بر روی ساختمان به عنوان یکی از اصلی ترین عارضه های شهری می باشد. من...

Local Climate Experts: The Influence of Local TV Weather Information on Climate Change Perceptions

Individuals who identify changes in their local climate are also more likely to report that they have personally experienced global climate change. One way that people may come to recognize that their local climate is changing is through information provided by local TV weather forecasters. Using random digit dialing, 2,000 adult local TV news viewers in Virginia were surveyed to determine whet...
