An intelligent control system architecture for the control of patient-ventilator synchrony

Proceedings of the Thirty-Fourth Southeastern Symposium on System Theory (Cat. No.02EX540), 2002
Describes an intelligent control system architecture for the control of patient-ventilator synchrony. The long-term objective of the research is to develop an innovative intelligent system for controlling the process of mechanical ventilatory support for patients undergoing therapy in a hospital intensive care unit (ICU).

Architectural design of an advanced naturally ventilated building form

Energy and Buildings, 2007
Advanced stack-ventilated buildings have the potential to consume much less energy for space conditioning than typical mechanically ventilated or air-conditioned buildings. This paper describes how environmental design considerations in general, and ventilation considerations in particular, shape the architecture of advanced naturally ventilated (ANV ...

Ventilation and Moisture Control in Architectural Metal Panel Roofing Systems

2020
Architectural metal roofing systems (AMRS) are considered to be a very durable type of steep-slope roofing system. Architectural metal roofing systems are commonly used in compact or unvented roofing assemblies over moisture-susceptible, nailable wood-based substrates placed directly over or laminated to rigid insulation or over nailable roof decks ...

Central Heating and Forced Ventilation: Origins and Effects on Architectural Design

Journal of the Society of Architectural Historians, 1978
The three major methods of heating buildings, based on hot air, hot water, and steam, were all developed in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, largely in Great Britain. At the same time, forced ventilation, based either on the drawing power of heat or on the use of mechanical means like the fan, was also established.

Natural Ventilation Modeling and Analysis for Climate-Sensitive Architecture Design

2018
Due to complicated building geometries and heterogeneous urban morphologies, project-specific wind analysis is needed in addition to the general understandings of wind environment in order to develop appropriate mitigation strategies for any particular projects that may have outdoor natural ventilation issues.

Control of Daylight and Natural Ventilation in Traditional Architecture of Ghadames, Libya

2016
Housing energy consumption accounts for almost 36% of total primary energy use in Libya of which cooling and lighting are the main source of demand. This study reviews passive control methods employed in traditional dwellings of Ghadames that highly contribute to enhance indoor thermal and visual comfort.
