background: chemical exposure is a major health problem globally. poison control centers (pccs) play a leading role both in developed and developing countries in the prevention and control of poisonous chemical exposures. in this study, we aimed to assess the current state of pccs in pakistan and highlight capacity building needs in these centers. methods: a cross-sectional survey of the two re...

Intelligent building (IB) technologies have widespread applications in the building design and development. In this regard, it is necessary to develop intelligent building assessment models in order to satisfy the clients, professionals, and occupants' growing demands. To this end, this paper proposes an integrated analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and preference degree approach (PDA) under the ...

This paper presents the preliminary modelling perspectives of an ongoing project where a flexible simulation tool for component and system analysis of district heating consumer installations is developed. The simulation tool makes it possible to simulate district heating consumer installations containing water based central heating systems, domestic hot tap water systems, buildings as well as l...
