As a result of the Russian invasion territory Ukraine, buildings Ukrainian cities were destroyed, and quite few settlements various categories completely destroyed. One these is small city Popasna - working town railway workers in East our country, which now temporarily occupied by invaders, 100% have been Is it appropriate to restore such after their liberation end hostilities? How reproduce t...

This paper deals with the problem of estimating an appropriate hand posture to grasp an object, from 2D object’s visual cues in a many-to-many (objects,grasp) configuration. A statistical learning protocol implementing vector-valued regression is adopted for both classifying the most likely grasp type and estimating the hand posture. An extensive experimental evaluation on a publicly available ...

I am requesting in writing assistance from your bureau to our school. Turner-Fenton Secondary School is a campus high school fast approaching 2,000 students, operating out of two buildings joined by a common parking lot. We have many ways of access onto our property and into our buildings. The size of our population is such that staff cannot know every student. This allows the problem of intrud...

abstract   iran has many historic cities and villages with economic, historic and cultural values facing with many seismic faults. there have been no comprehensive studies about reducing the vulnerability of the historic villages, and the available documents describe the retrofitting experiments only about the single buildings.  lack of a comprehensive look at the subject leads to the loss of t...

The reasons for the inferior performance of many existing buildings and associated energy systems are diverse, but an important part-cause is insufficient attention to the influence of occupant behaviour. In smart buildings it is necessary to allow for the integration of human behaviour in the HVAC system. In addition, many researchers are limited in their investigation by not having low cost t...

nature displays profound preference for certain specific ratios to design her life-forms. these are geometric relationships that are transcendent and originated from sacred geometry. the view that geometry had a ritual origin is a part of a wider view that civilization itself had a ritual origin, and therefore the history of utilization of sacred geometry by man goes back to many centuries ago....

Over the past several years many issues have come to light that have highlighted the need for improved ventilation in multi unit residential buildings (MURB's). High-rise buildings, for example, are all too often connected with poor indoor air quality. When looking at this issue from the perspective of urbanism and the trend to increasing the density of our urban centres, there is a dramatic ne...

In this paper, the seismic responses control characteristics of Mega-structure, Mega-sub Controlled Structure System (MSCSS) without dampers and MSCSS inserted friction dampers are investigated respectively under rare earthquake by using the elastic-plastic time history analysis method. The distribution of plastic hinges and different control efficiency of these structures under rare earthquake...

An approach that allows a user to assist an automatic system in modeling buildings is described. The approach is designed to be efficient in user time and effort while preserving the quality of the models created. Currently our system is able to handle the rectangular buildings with flat roof or symmetric gabled roof. Models can be created by only one or two clicks in many cases. Efficient edit...
