Thermal performance of building prototype with different cool roof structures in composite climate
International Journal of Sustainable Energy, 2022 In the domestic sector, buildings contribute to about 55% of the total energy consumption for space heating and cooling. In this study, an experiment was carried out using a square shape building prototype made up of laminated plywood with Reinforced ...

Dual-Task Decrements in Gait: Contributing Factors Among Healthy Older Adults [PDF]
The Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences, 2008 The factors that contribute to the dual tasking (DT) changes in performance that occur when older adults walk while simultaneously performing other tasks are not well known. We hypothesized that cognitive and motor reserve (e.g., executive function [EF], postural control, and walking abilities) and affect (e.g., anxiety, depressive symptoms) influence ...

Panel Damping Loss Factor Estimation Using the Random Decrement Technique [PDF]
51st AIAA/ASME/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics, and Materials Conference<BR> 18th AIAA/ASME/AHS Adaptive Structures Conference<BR> 12th, 2010 ANEL damping loss factors can be computed using a number of techniques based on measured responses and, depending on the algorithm chosen, based on measured excitation forces as well. These many techniques are based on a range of mathematical models, including both continuous and discretized formulations.

Modified Multiple Decrement Table and Its Credibility Based on Factor Characteristics
Journal of the Indonesian Mathematical Society, 2023 The 2019 Indonesian Mortality Table IV (TMI IV) involved 52 life insurance companies in Indonesia during the study period from 2013 to 2017. From the data, there may be differences in the characteristics of company customers so that the use of TMI IV is not in accordance with these characteristics.
