The investigation of designing an efficient sensor network that minimizes energy dissipation in a battery of the sensor node, with limited battery power, is a vital consideration for the sensor network lifetime. Battery lifet...

Ice has been a serious obstacle and problem for the construction of hydraulic and marine structures, lighthouses, and the like in cold regions. For these structures, ice forces are the major design criteria. Because the ice loads caused by sea ice on offshore structures have been fully reviewed a few times, they are purposely set aside in this paper. Instead, two major problems are discussed he...

Global warming is big issue of this time. It is caused by producing emissions, mainly carbon dioxide. Many organizations tries to establish restrictions to limit CO2 emissions. Our aim is to monitor underground parking lots and detect level of carbon dioxide using wireless sensor network. Gained results are drawn in the map of pollution of monitored area.
