Dynamic Optimisation of Façade-Integrated Solar Cooling Elements: Adsorption Cooling Versus Photovoltaic Scenarios

Solar
Façade-integrated solar cooling technologies enable the utilisation of façade surface potential and the provision of resilient cooling. This work compares three solar cooling scenarios, positioning a solar cooling element in the west and east façades ...

The potential of building envelope greening to achieve quietness [PDF]

, 2013
Reduction of noise is one of the multiple benefits of building envelope greening measures. The potential of wall vegetation systems, green roofs, vegetated low screens at roof edges, and also combinations of such treatments, have been studied by means of

Benchmarking of finite-difference time-domain method and fast multipole boundary element method for room acoustics

, 2022
Compared to geometrical acoustics, wave-based methods which solve the wave equation either in the time domain or in the frequency domain are known for their high accuracy.

Integration of OpenCV‐Based Microscopic Adhesive Volume Measurement Into a Pyiron Workflow for Automated Data Analysis

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Residual adhesive after electrode loading in adhesive‐assisted resistance spot welding is quantified through a traceable experimental‐to‐digital workflow. Chromatic confocal topography provides calibrated surface‐height data, while OpenCV detects the electrode imprint and integrates adhesive height into comparable volume metrics.

Time-domain impedance boundary condition modeling with the discontinuous Galerkin method for room acoustics simulations [PDF]

, 2020
The time-domain nodal discontinuous Galerkin (TD-DG) method is emerging as a potential wave-based method for three-dimensional (3D) room acoustics modeling, where high-order accuracy in the low frequency range, geometrical flexibility and accurate ...

Enhanced Ultrasound Transmission Through Aberration Layers Using Space‐Coiling Acoustic Metamaterials

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Enhancing ultrasound transmission through an aberration layer exhibiting mismatched impedance with the surrounding medium possesses great implications in imaging and treatment. In this study, we show that a space‐coiling acoustic metamaterial with judiciously tailored structural profile can help improve impedance matching.

Improving Building Acoustics [PDF]

Journal of Applied Engineering Sciences, 2021
Abstract One of the most significant aspects which need to be analysed in the case of a building consists in finding that the sound level perceived by listeners is a proper one (Daniela-Roxana Tămaş-Gavrea et all., 2012). Their inconsistent spreading can develop problems in audition which can be solved only by putting in work a number
