Case Study in Modular Lightweight Steel Frame Construction: Thermal Bridges and Energy Performance Assessment

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
This paper proposes an improvement of the conventional Lightweight Steel Frame (LSF) wall structure suitable for the design of high-performance modular buildings. A mobile module, named MUZA, is used as a case study building to analyse the performance of

Energy Simulations of a Building Insulated with a Hemp-Lime Composite with Different Wall and Node Variants

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Thermal bridges constitute a significant share in the overall heat losses through building partitions. This is an important issue not only in traditional but also ecological buildings, where the load-bearing structure is often a wooden frame.

Conductive Heat Transfer in Thermal Bridges

open access: yesEncyclopedia, 2022
A thermal bridge is a component of a building that is characterized by a higher thermal loss compared with its surroundings. Their accurate modeling is a key step in energy performance analysis due to the increased awareness of the importance of ...

Bridging‐Droplet Thermal Diodes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, 2020
AbstractPhase‐change thermal diodes effectively transport heat unidirectionally, but are currently constrained by either a gravitational dependence, a 1D configuration, or poor durability. Here, a novel bridging‐droplet thermal diode which uniquely bypasses all of these existing constraints is developed.

Deep Perceptual Mapping for Thermal to Visible Face Recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cross modal face matching between the thermal and visible spectrum is a much de- sired capability for night-time surveillance and security applications. Due to a very large modality gap, thermal-to-visible face recognition is one of the most challenging ...

Hydration temperature rise and thermal stresses induced in segment-on-pier of prestressed concrete box girder bridge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The heat generation from chemical reactions of hardening concrete causes temperature rise and thermal expansion. When the concrete temperature eventually cools down to the ambient, thermal contraction would result.

Investigation of Thermal and Energy Performance of the Thermal Bridge Breaker for Reinforced Concrete Residential Buildings

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Thermal bridges in building envelopes can cause significant heat loss and heat gain. In this study, the developed thermal bridge breaker was applied to an interior insulation finishing system in residential buildings to minimize the thermal bridges in ...
