Application of a transient hygrothermal population model for house dust mites in beds: assessment of control strategies in UK buildings

, 2011
This article discusses the capabilities and the application of an innovative combined hygrothermal and population model to assess the impact of building design and occupant behaviour on house dust mite populations in a mattress. The combined model is the

Hygrothermal behavior of polybenzimidazole

Polymer, 2016
Abstract Poly[2,2’-(m-phenylene)-5,5’-bibenzimidazole] (PBI) is used in extremely high temperature harsh environment applications. It is a unique engineering material that is formed into parts by powder-sintering at temperatures as high as 500 °C. Recently, ever increasing demands for high temperature polymers have led to significant interest in PBI ...

Hygrothermal Performance of Adobe Structures

IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2023
Abstract Vernacular architecture incorporates many cooling and heating passive design strategies related to the structural envelope, the different architectural arrangements and the way of living of the inhabitants. Adobe walls are considered to be high thermal mass masonries, as they have the ability to store thermal energy.
