Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleNumerical Analysis of the Integration of Wind Turbines into the Design of the Built EnvironmentHassam Nasarullah Chaudhry, John Kaiser Calautit, Ben Richard HughesThe effect of wind distribution on the architectural domain of the Bahrain Trade Centre was numerically analysed using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Using the numerical data, the power generation potential of the building integrated wind turbines was determined in response to the prevailing wind direction. Simulating a reference wind speed of 6 m/s, the findings from the study quantified an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 22 Dec 2014 · 7,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleHEAT INTENSITY OF URBAN BUILT ENVIRONMENT IN HOT HUMID CLIMATE REGIONBeta Paramita, Hiroatsu FukudaLarge numbers of inhabitants in a dense area require land coverage for sheltering purposes. The anthropogenic heat emission potentially reduces ventilation of urban areas and significantly brings changes in air temperature. This study is aimed at finding the correlations between urban form and the alteration of urban microclimate in different land-uses. This study has been carried out in Bandung, Indonesia, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 16 Apr 2014 · 7,812 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLED TECHNOLOGY FOR BUILT AND ENVIRONMENT OF MALAYSIAC. H. Lim, Masoud Dalman, Mona Erfanian Salim et al.Increasing the country population and the trend of industrialization caused increasing Malaysia's electricity consumption. Light Emitting Diode (LED) is a new sustainable technology that has taken over the conventional lighting in built and environment in a few developed counties in the recent years. However, Malaysia is left behind in using this technology due to unfamiliarity of the decision makers on … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 1 Oct 2014 · 6,863 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNovel Approach to Determine the Effects of MS Environment using the Portable GPS Receiver with Built-in AntennaWan Azlan Wan Zainal Abidin, Kiyotaka Fujisaki, Mitsuo TateibaCommunication impairment on the Mobile Satellite (MS) path for non-geostationary satellite is mainly due to effect of multipath and shadowing. In order to study the signal quality received by the MS user, a receiver system that has similar characteristics to the actual receiver used by the MS user should be used. This study presents a novel approach to determine the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,576 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effects of Sense of Progression and Cognitive Distance on Path Choice and Walking Behavior While Aiming To Reach DestinationMohammad Paydar, Samira RamezaniProblem statement: Studies focused on walking behavior have indicated the relationship of different factors of built environment with walking to reach destination and walking for recreation. Furthermore, according to literature on path choice behavior, there is a relationship between walking behavior and path choice of pedestrians. Empirical studies on path choice behavior have also shown that the effects of different … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,162 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractMetadata Stewardship and Quality in Telecom SectorBhola Gan Chaudhuri, Shalli RaniThe spread of the telecom network infrastructure, constellations of satellites and the use of the Internet of Things (IoT) have brought about unprecedented volumes of heterogeneous information which facilitate the contemporary monitoring systems of the environment and the earth. Metadata control and information quality have also become significant in the telecom industry in controlling data reliably, enhancing data services, and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 10 · 22 Oct 2026 · 335 accessesView PDFCite
