well-designed lighting decreases accidents and diseases of eyes and can increase productivity and concentration. increase of energy price and a high proportion of electric lighting energy consumption in buildings due to defects in designing and maintenance led to desirable lighting to be reduced. one of our challenges in providing health and quality of lighting is lack of economic justification...

We investigate quantum transport in binary tree structures and in hypercubes for the disordered Frenkel-exciton Hamiltonian under pure dephasing noise. We compute the energy transport efficiency as a function of disorder and dephasing rates. We demonstrate that dephasing improves transport efficiency not only in the disordered case, but also in the ordered one. The maximal transport efficiency ...

This paper describes two serious games designed for care homes and hospitals in the frame of the MIRROR project. The games aim to empower and engage employees to reflect on past work performances and personal learning experiences in order to learn in ‘real-time’ and to creatively solve pressing problems. The games, designed for new nurses and carers, were tested with more than 200 users with di...

Information about medicines in Europe does not really fulfil its potential. For patients, it is often very hard to understand and to apply information in a specific situation. For the pharmaceutical industry, it is hard to develop (writing-designing-testing) due to strict regulations. And for the Regulatory authorities, the current situation is hard to control and check. One of the main causes ...

with the increasing world population and limitations on arable land, increasing the yield per unit is one of alternatives human food supply. greenhouse cultivation as one ways of increase the performance can arrive this purpose. but the energy restriction of another human challenges, so that increase the performance without considering energy consumption almost appears to be meaningless. due to...

Significant waste heat recovery technologies have been developed to recover exhaust heat and turn it into useful energy such as in downsizing the engine or to regain the auto-electricity. Extensive work and research in energy recovery have been identified in the automotive sector; therefore the main objective of this paper is to assess each waste heat recovery technology based on current develo...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of vitamin premix withdrawal from diets containing different energy levels on growth performance and carcass characteristics of broilers subjected to heat stress in a completely randomized design with 2×3 factorial arrangement containing, 2 levels of energy (low and high energy) and 3 levels of vitamin premix withdrawal (28, 35 and 42 days). ...
