The three autonomous architectures of a connected sustainable residential unit
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is described a prototype residential unit ensuring comfortable interior conditions at minimum energy cost through the interaction of three autonomous architectures: a) a spatial arrangement of tectonic elements; b) an assembly of sustainable material components; and c) a cognitive architecture of control systems. The prprototype is an experiment on sustainability, connectivity, energy consumption, and energy production, integrated within the context of a city that is envisioned as an energy efficient grid. This paper offers insight into the dynamic interactions between the material elements of the physical architecture of the prototype, and the attributes and events of the cognitive architecture, which are associated with them. © 2014 The Authors.

Load side management is the basic and significant principle to keeping the balance between generation side and consumption side of electrical power energy. Load side management on typical medium voltage feeder is the power energy consumption control of connected loads with variation of essential parameters that loads do reaction to their variation. Knowing amount of load's reaction to each para...

As an efficient alternative to fossil fuels, renewable energy sources have attained great attention due to their sustainable, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly characteristic. However, as a deficiency, renewable energy sources have low reliability because of their non-deterministic and stochastic generation pattern. The use of hybrid renewable generation systems along with the storag...

Recently, data collection from seabed by means of underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSN) has attracted considerable attention. Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are increasingly used as UWSNs in underwater missions. Events and environmental parameters in underwater regions have a stochastic nature. The target area must be covered by sensors to observe and report events. A ‘topology cont...

Precious metals are currently associated with selenium (naumannite, Ag2Se) and tellurium (calaverite, AuTe2; sylvanite, (Au,Ag)2Te4) to form species refractory to cyanidation. The aim of this preliminary work was to study the use of the solvent extraction technique to recover tellurium and selenium ions from a synthetic solution similar to the cyanidation effluents to recycle the free cyanide b...
