Hygrothermal Processes in Porous Materials
2023The Thesis aims to assess the feasibility of creating a positive energy quarter in a cultural and historic urban environment by using hygrothermal insulation from the inside. The purpose of the research is to find the solution to the dilemma between preserving heritage and improving energy efficiency in historic buildings. One solution to this dilemma

Key Engineering Materials
For developing a hygrothermal reference year (HRY) to support the hygrothermal simulation of hygroscopic building construction in Guangzhou, a typical hot-humid city located in south China, the study first clarifies the correlation between the hygrothermal simulation results and the meteorological elements based on a 10-year baseline simulation with ...

Study of Hygrothermal Isotropic Layup and Hygrothermal Curvature-Stable Coupling Composite Laminates
44th AIAA/ASME/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics, and Materials Conference, 2003The necessary and sufficient conditions for a laminate to be hygrothermal isotropic are given with the proof. A closed form of the direction-independent coefficient of thermal (or hygral) expansion for any hygrothermal isotropic laminate has been obtained.

Hygrothermal Viscoelastic Response
2011While the effects of moisture on the mechanical response of materials as different as wool and wood were recognized for a long time, their incorporation within the theory of viscoelasticity was not implemented until the 1970s.

Effect of Hygrothermal Aging on Polyetherimide Composites
Journal of Reinforced Plastics and Composites, 2007The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of hygrothermal aging on both the static and thermo-mechanical behavior of polyetherimide composites. Tensile testing and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis were performed on the hygrothermally aged polyetherimide composites in the climatic cabin. The decrease in the T

Hygrothermal properties of earth bricks
Energy and Buildings, 2014Abstract The comfort of the occupants and the quality of indoor air are becoming important parameters in the selection of building materials for use inside buildings. Earth is a material that seems to meet all the requirements, essentially because of its low environmental impact and its strong hygroscopic properties, as observed in historic earth ...
