Natural Ventilation of Buildings: From Fluid Mechanics to Architectural Design Guidance
, 2021 Over the last two decades, natural ventilation of buildings has rapidly established itself as a viable low-energy alternative to air-conditioning and mechanical ventilation systems. With careful design, natural ventilation has the capacity to reduce the energy expenditure of buildings and can provide a comfortable indoor environment for occupants ...

North, South, East and West: The Environmental Approach to Transparent Design
Challenging Glass Conference Proceedings, 2010 Architecture has always been interested in transparency but this characteristic has strong implications for energy performance. For many years architecture has neglected this factor but today, in a time when society has developed an awareness of the ...

L’architettura come sistema di differenze
Aisthesis, 2012 There are many cases in which the “direction” of architecture seems to be indifferent to the architect who designs it. Among these, the Guggenheim Museum in New York by Frank Lloyd Wright is highly emblematic: through the long and troubled project’s ...

Clinical implication of monitoring regional ventilation using electrical impedance tomography
Journal of Intensive Care, 2019 Mechanical ventilation can initiate ventilator-associated lung injury (VALI) and contribute to the development of multiple organ dysfunction. Although a lung protective strategy limiting both tidal volume and plateau pressure reduces VALI, uneven ...
