Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBasis of Guidelines for Structural Design and Thermal Assessment of Buildings with Hybrid CLT-Glass ElementsNikola Perković, Vlatka Rajčić, Chiara Bedon et al.Facade elements are known to represent a building component with multiple performance parameters to satisfy. Among others, “advanced facades” take advantage from hybrid solutions, like the assemblage of laminated materials. In addition to enhanced mechanical properties that are typical of optimally composed hybrid structural components, these systems are energy efficient, durable and offer lightening comfort and optimal thermal performance. This … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 9 Apr 2020 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIdentification of Retrofits Needed in Old Office Buildings to Achieve Thermal ComfortChipozya Tembo Silungwe, Josephine Mutwale Ziko, Edward Jims SakalaBuilding designs normally are made to offer a given level of comfort to occupants without any mechanical intervention. However, with the advent of global warming temperatures globally have been seen to rise making the occupants of most buildings uncomfortable. The immediate solution has been to add mechanical ventilation, which comes at an added cost of installation and running a building. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 18 Sep 2019 · 7,370 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNew About the Balancing of Thermal MotorsNicolae Petrescu, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe paper presents a new method of balancing the thermal motors, the method that perfectly fits the engines with modern internal combustion. This new constructive method imposes a new in-line engine design in order to better balance it, thus achieving a static balancing and total dynamics of the new type of internal combustion heat engine. The method can also be … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 22 Jul 2019 · 5,823 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleObject Detection and Classification from Thermal Images Using Region based Convolutional Neural NetworkUsha Mittal, Sonal Srivastava, Priyanka ChawlaIn recent years, object detection and classification has gained so much popularity in different application areas like face detection, self- driving cars, pedestrian detection, security surveillance systems etc. The traditional detection methods like background subtraction, Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), Support Vector Machine (SVM) have certain drawbacks like overlapping of objects, distortion due to smoke, fog, lightening conditions etc. In this … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 7 · 18 Jul 2019 · 9,448 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Yield of the Thermal EnginesNicolae Petrescu, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThis paper presents an algorithm for determining the dynamic parameters of the main classic mechanism of internal combustion engines. It shows the distribution of forces (on the main engine mechanism) to internal combustion engines. With these forces and together with the kinematic coupling speeds, the efficiency of the thermal engine is determined. The method applies separately for two distinct situations: … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 14 May 2019 · 6,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThermal Face Authentication with Convolutional Neural NetworkMohamed Sayed, Faris BakerMatching thermal face images as a method of biometric authentication has gained increasing interest because of its advantage of tracking a target object at night and in total darkness. Therefore, for security purposes, it has become highly favourable and has extensive applications, for instance, in video surveillance at night. The aim of this study is to present a simple and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 12 · 10 Dec 2018 · 7,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePreparation of Porous Silicon P-Type and Thermal Diffusivity Measurement Using Photoacoustic TechniqueMohammed Jabbar Hussein, Suaad Sahib Hindal, Amany Akram AwaadPorous silicon (PSi) layers were formed on a p-type Si wafer. Electrochemical method was used to prepare 36 samples with three values of current density (10, 20 and 30) mA/cm2, each involved ( 20, 40, 60 and 80) min etching times the samples were heated to three selected temperatures of 100, 200 and 350°C in three groups. The first group … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 14 Nov 2018 · 7,437 accessesView PDFCite

In this study, historical developments leading to current Hybrid Photovoltaic/Thermal (HPV/T) systems as it is used today and global findings to enhance the performance of HPV/T system through state-of-the-art analyses are presented in a … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Jun 2018 · 7,871 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThermal Stability Analysis in a Two-Step Reactive Cylindrical StockpileR.S. Lebelo, R.K. Mahlobo, K.C. MoloiThermal stability analysis in a cylindrical stockpile of reactive material undergoing a two-step low-temperature oxidation reaction is studied in this article. The reactant consumption in this case is neglected and heat transfer with thermal stability are investigated by application of the energy equation. The complicated combustion process results with nonlinear interactions and hence the nonlinear partial differential equation governing the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 6 Dec 2017 · 7,654 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleConvective Heat Transfer and Thermal Performance in a Circular Tube Heat Exchanger Inserted with U-Shaped BaffleAmnart Boonloi, Withada JedsadaratanachaiNumerical investigations on flow structure and heat transfer characteristic in a heat exchanger tube fitted with U-shaped baffle are presented. The U-shaped baffle is created from the concepts of orifice and inclined baffle. The influences of the baffle height (b/D = 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 and 0.25) and flow attack angle (α = 20°, 30° and 45°) of the U-shaped … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 23 Sep 2017 · 6,951 accessesView PDFCite
