Establishing design criteria for the incorporation of highly glazed spaces into the domestic building envelope [PDF]
, 1996 This thesis investigates the design of domestic glazed spaces in the United Kingdom, by studying the effect of a range of variables on the thermal properties of glazed spaces, in order to achieve a thermally comfortable environment while minimising ...

Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 1997 Civil buildings in Lithuania consume one half of final energy or about 70% of heat generated in thermoelectric and heat power stations. However, energy is necessary not only for exploitation but also for the creation of buildings: manufacture of building

Correction of a designed building's heat balance according to its real heat consumption
Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2003 One of the most important issues in the implementation of energy saving measures is a proper evaluation of possible energy savings. If energy savings are overestimated in an energy audit (EA), a situation may occur where after the renovation, the ...

Application of the fractional oscillator equation to simulations of granular flow in a silo [PDF]
Computer Methods in Materials Science, 2011 In this paper we consider a problem of continuous operation of silos. We have focused our attention on the two extreme experimental cases. The first one is considered as a mass flow and the second one is known as a blockade of particles in a silo. In our
