Temperature Conditions on Flat Roofs

, 2008
In this paper the temperature conditions on flat roofs are discussed considering the influence of long-wave radiation to the sky and the effect of a parapet as an important factor for the night-time roof temperature.

‘Hurry Up and Get Me out of Here’: The Experience of People Under 65 Years (Still) Stuck in Aged Care

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety, the Australian Government set a target for no‐one under 65 years of age to be living in residential aged care (RAC) by 2025. The numbers of young people in residential aged care (YPIRAC) have significantly declined since the start of the targets.

Extent of Sinus Surgery Is Associated With Disease Control in Biologic Treated Type 2 Dominant CRS

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A greater benefit of biologics is observed after surgery in Type 2 chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP). However, the extent of surgery remains undefined in many studies. This study evaluated the extent of surgery on disease control in patients receiving biologics for refractory Type 2 dominant CRSwNP.

The analysis of implementation options of transverse joints of bitumen sheets [PDF]

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
One of the most frequent sources of faults on flat roofs is a violation of the waterproof layers along the transverse joints between bitumen sheets. This fault is caused by a failure to adhere to the technological methodologies.

Thermal Calculations for Co‐Firing of Hydrogen/Ammonia and Coal in 660‐MW Coal‐Fired Boilers

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To achieve a clean energy transition under the dual carbon goals, blending hydrogen/ammonia into pulverized coal boilers represents a key technological pathway. Different hydrogen/ammonia co‐firing ratios (5%–50%) are investigated for their impact on the thermodynamic characteristics of 660‐MW supercritical boiler at 100% and 20% boiler ...
