The Sustainability of the Popular House in Saharan Human Settlements
Proceedings of the International Conference of Contemporary Affairs in Architecture and Urbanism-ICCAUA, 2019 Hot desert regions, like ALGERIAN SAHARA, are very challenging in terms of building energy consumption. The energy demand needs to be reduced significantly before employing renewable energy, and a way to achieve that is through applying vernacular ...

ON PASSIVE SYSTEMS: FROM LINEARITY TO NONLINEARITY
IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1992 In this note we study when the passivity of a nonlinear system can be infered from the passivity of the associated first order approximation. Our contribution is the proof that this is possible provided the input vectorfields and output functions of the nonlinear system satisfy some rank and integrability conditions.

System Identification for Passive Linear Quantum Systems [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, 2016 System identification is a key enabling component for the implementation of quantum technologies, including quantum control. In this paper, we consider the class of passive linear input-output systems, and investigate several basic questions: (1) which parameters can be identified?
