Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Thermal Comfort in Respect to Building Height in a High-Density City in the TropicsAnisha Noori Kakon, Mishima Nobuo, Shoichi Kojima, Taguchi YokoProblem statement: The significance of urban design and planning in the tropics lies mostly on its climatic and regional concerns. Among many design parameters, building height is an important parameter which affects thermal climate in the city considerably. This study investigated the effect of building height on outdoor thermal comfort during the daytime in summer in Dhaka, Bangladesh which is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Direct Current and Temperature Stresses of Low-Voltage ZnO Based Varistor CeramicsM. G.M. Sabri, B. Z. Azmi, Zahid Rizwan et al.Problem statement: The stresses to humidity, DC and AC bias, multiple impulse voltages and high temperatures are known to affect the varistor performance and it is also interesting to know the effect of both DC bias and temperature stresses at the same time. Approach: Here, the simultaneous DC and temperature stresses degradation was investigated to see the changes of nonlinear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 8,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Comfort Assessment: A Case Study at Malaysian Automotive IndustryA. R. Ismail, N. Jusoh, R. Zulkifli et al.Problem statement: Thermal comfort has a great influence on the productivity and satisfaction of indoor building occupants.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview of Photochemical Smog Pollution in Jakarta Metropolitan, IndonesiaDollaris R. Suhadi, M. Awang, M. N. Hassan et al.An analysis of photochemical smog pollution in Jakarta was attempted using data from the existing air quality monitoring stations. Ground-level ozone potential is high in Jakarta due to the high traffic emissions of ozone precursors and the favorable surface meteorological conditions. Despite the frequent missing data during the 1996-1999 monitoring, which resulted in lower ozone values, ozone episodes were significantly … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,247 accessesView PDFCite
