The influence of moisture on the energy performance of retrofitted walls [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2020
The renovation of old building facades should be performed mainly considering the building energy demand reduction. For this purpose, it is necessary to select retrofitted solutions that should be able of minimizing heat losses through walls. However, it

Regulation of Lfc, a RhoGEF, by Phosphorylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
RhoGTPases oscillate between an inactive GDP-bound state and an active GTP-bound state. The exchange of GDP for GTP is catalyzed by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs).

Evaluation of the Effect of Passive Cooling Techniques on Thermal Comfort Using Test Cells in the Northern Region of Brazil

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The high consumption of electricity in Palmas, Brazil is a direct consequence of the high temperatures identified throughout the year. Therefore, it is necessary to search for sustainable technologies that contribute to comfort through passive cooling ...

Evidence for the Involvement of Lfc and Tctex-1 in Axon Formation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2010
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

The Importance of Moisture Content to the Emissivity of Ceramic Bricks

open access: yesProceedings, 2019
Emissivity is a key parameter if one intends to use quantitative thermography. The importance of temperature, surface characteristics, wavelength and the direction of the emitted radiation in the emissivity is well documented in the literature.

Evaluation of the Mechanical Properties of Lightweight Foamed Concrete at Varying Elevated Temperatures

open access: yesFire, 2023
Lightweight foamed concrete (LFC) made from cementitious materials with air pores entrapped in the matrix by mechanically entrained foam in the mortar slurry has several economic and environmental benefits.

Resting-State Connectivity of the Left Frontal Cortex to the Default Mode and Dorsal Attention Network Supports Reserve in Mild Cognitive Impairment

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2017
Reserve refers to the phenomenon of relatively preserved cognition in disproportion to the extent of neuropathology, e.g., in Alzheimer’s disease. A putative functional neural substrate underlying reserve is global functional connectivity of the left ...

Resilient Event-Triggered Load Frequency Control for Multi-Area Power System With Wind Power Integrated Considering Packet Losses

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
The congest in an open communication system may cause the failure of the load frequency control (LFC) scheme in the power system. Furthermore, the increase of wind power penetration degrades the stability of the LFC scheme.

The 3D printing challenge in buildings [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2020
The rising awareness and usage of Building Information Modelling (BIM), a methodology that allows for better information management and communication amongst the several stakeholders of a building project, opened the construction sector's door to digital
