Strategies for school buildings refurbishment in Portuguese climate [PDF]
Portuguese school buildings are generally characterized by an in-service thermal discomfort, due to the poor envelope thermal properties and the lack of resources for paying energy consumption.

Evidence for the Involvement of Lfc and Tctex-1 in Axon Formation [PDF]
RhoA and Rac play key and opposite roles during neuronal polarization. We now show that Lfc, a guanosine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), localizes to the Golgi apparatus and growth cones of developing neurons and negatively regulates neurite sprouting and axon formation through a Rho signaling pathway. Tctex-1, a dynein light chain implicated in axon

Evaluation of heat transfer in humidification phenomena – Comparison between infrared thermography and numerical simulation [PDF]
Infrared thermography (IRT) is a non-destructive testing technology used to assess the performance of buildings. As a diagnosis tool for retrofit and conservation of buildings it helps understanding the anomalies by allowing “seeing” their causes in a ...

LHCb experience with LFC replication
Database replication is a key topic in the framework of the LHC Computing Grid to allow processing of data in a distributed environment. In particular, the LHCb computing model relies on the LHC File Catalog, i.e. a database which stores information about files spread across the GRID, their logical names and the physical locations of all the replicas ...

A Survey on Load Frequency Control of Multi-Area Power Systems: Recent Challenges and Strategies
Load frequency control (LFC) is well known for balancing the load demand and frequency for a multi-area power system. Studies have proven that LFC can improve the global performance of multi-area power systems.
