Hygrothermal Performance of Worship Spaces: Preservation, Comfort, and Energy Consumption [PDF]
The energy problem, one the most important on a global scale, greatly affects the environment. Much of the current energy consumption occurs in existing buildings, including heritage buildings with varying protected status. Energy intervention and heritage conservation conflict to some extent, as research focuses more on the search for improved energy ...

Hygrothermic performance of the exterior and interior surfaces of buildings [PDF]
One of the current tasks of building physics is to find solutions in sense of the sustainability. That means we must save heating energy and raw materials. Therefore we have to develop building envelope parts with innovative characteristics. This paper shows the coupled heat and moisture transfer at adjacent areas of surfaces of the envelope parts of ...

Effect of hygrothermal environment on mechanical properties and damage mechanism of CFRP
The moisture absorption properties of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) laminates treated with three kinds of hygrothermal environments (relative humidity 85% RH, temperature 25, 70, 85℃ respectively) were investigated by accelerated moisture ...

Development of prefabricated insulation elements for buildings with aerated autoclaved concrete walls [PDF]
An extensive need for the refurbishment and renewal of existing building stock has been the focus of consideration for many decades, principally because of the high global energy consumption and pollution levels.
