The objective of this study is to evaluate the energy efficiency of residential buildings by using natural energy and optimizing the choice of materials for heat and cold saving with the Ecotect simulation software. According to analysis and simulation was found that the optimum material of main building components in a mild climate zone of Rasht city is the Brick Conc block Plaster for wall wi...

the geometry of a collector is one of the important factors that can increase the incident radiation on the collector surface. in the present study, the incident radiation for a stationary collector with cone geometry, i.e. a conical collector, is theoretically and experimentally investigated. this type of collector is always stable and does not need a fixture to install. moreover, it has a sym...

An expression for the transmitted fraction of the uniform and parallel radiation incident upon the coupler between two rectangular light pipes of different physical dimensions is derived. It is a function of the pipe dimension ratio and the angle of the incident radiation. It is shown that for radiation nearly parallel to the pipe axis, it is possible to design a coupler for any pipe dimension ...

PURPOSE Collaborative incident learning initiatives in radiation therapy promise to improve and standardize the quality of care provided by participating institutions. However, the software interfaces provided with such initiatives must accommodate all participants and thus are not optimized for the workflows of individual radiation therapy centers. This article describes the development and im...

The time-domain characteristics of terahertz radiations emitted from a biased largeaperture photoconductive antenna trigged by an ultra-short optical pulse are studied. Succinct explicit expressions in the surface field and in the far field for the emitted THz radiation fields are deduced based on the well-known current-surge model. The expressions indicate that the THz radiations in the surfac...
