This project proposes the energy management for smart environment. The overall control scheme is mainly governed by an embedded microcontroller. Economic crisis and the risen energy price have forced every country to reduce their energy usage and try to be economical on energy consumption. In this project IR sensors are used to find out the intruder enters the home and the devices are controlle...

regarding the increasing demand for lightweight concrete especially lightweight structural concrete, and safety requirements underlined in 2800 iranian standard, research to achieve the optimized results in lightweight concrete production seems inevitable. since, one of the commonly used methods for producing the light eight concrete, utilizes the light weight aggregates with significant role i...

since 1895 cardamom has been cultivated in the cardamom hills of western ghats, india, which form a part of global biodiversity hot spots. these tropical forests in the last couple of decades have been subjected for severe periodical shade lopping and selective felling for maximizing cardamom production. photosynthesis, transpiration, leaf temperature and leaf relative humidity was studied in r...

Bose statistics imply a substantial enhancement at small angles for light scattering off a cold, Bose gas. The enhancement increases dramatically at the Bose-Einstein temperature. This phenomenon could be utilized to eliminate almost entirely the heating of the gas by a weak probe light beam.

An approach to develop room temperature detectors is to use transitions between the light/heavy hole bands and the split-off hole band to produce enhanced response at high temperature. Results are presented on a theoretical model to predict the response in these split-off detectors. The model calculates the dark and illuminated currents from the photoabsorption, carrier escape, and transport, e...

background: application of bonding agents (ba) into deep cavities and light curing them might increase pulpal temperature and threaten its health. the purpose of this study was to evaluate temperature rise of pulp by light curing six ba using two different light curing units (lcu), through a dent in wall of 0.5 mm. materials and methods: this in vitro experiment was carried out on 96 slices of ...

This paper aims at presenting the effects of short-term sustained load and temperature on time-dependent deformation of carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) bonded to concrete and pull-off strength at room temperature after the sustained loading period. The approach involves experimental and numerical analysis. Single-lap shear specimens were used to evaluate temperature and short-term sustai...
