Natural ventilation is among those effective methods that is useful in hot dry climates. One of its important uses is in the atrium spaces in the office buildings. Although, as a passive solution, it has a significant impact on the reduction of energy consumption, the control of inlet and outflow of air as well as the control of air current temperature has always been a challenge for architects...

Industrialization and increasing demand for the consumption of fossil fuels cause that energy becomes a strategic factor. Energy crisis and the emergence of modern architecture led designers to pay more attention to the important task of building's envelope. Building skins play an important role in building thermal behavior and reduce energy consumption. If Double Skin Facades properly designed...

energy is one of major factors of productions in all of economic sectors, which have important effect on a country economy. the effect of increasing price of energy carriers on productions of economic sectors is inevitable. therefore, this research was conducted by using the input - output model and product forecasting. the study investigated the latest available input - output table in 1385. t...

This review is concerned primarily with the correlation between the interfacial interactions and the constitutive properties of low-energy organic surfaces. It starts with a discussion on the estimation of the surface free energy of organic solids from contact angles, followed by a review of the surface energetics and adhesion. The experimental measurements of surface free energy, in most cases...
