Selecting Materials for Environmental-Friendly Buildings: The Need for Improved Environmental Impact Data

Environmental friendly carrier material for nifedipine as hypertension drug

Nifedipine is a hypertension drug must be consumed three times a day due to its low oral bioavailability. One way of developing a controlled drug delivery system is making nifedipine microcapsules by using environmentally friendly polymers of polylactic acid and polycaprolactone via the evaporation method using oil-in-water solvents. Polylactic acid and polycaprolactone can be said to be enviro...

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...

Environmental Impact of Buildings--What Matters?

The goal of this study was to identify drivers of environmental impact and quantify their influence on the environmental performance of wooden and massive residential and office buildings. We performed a life cycle assessment and used thermal simulation to quantify operational energy demand and to account for differences in thermal inertia of building mass. Twenty-eight input parameters, affect...
