W-BAN applications have been around since a long time, but have been experiencing a tremendous growth during the last decades. This results in the need of dedicated antennas, which are designed and optimized taking into account their lossy surroundings. De ...
Life cycle assessment (LCA) is based on the basic principles of sustainable development. LCA method demonstrated its efficiency in providing a systematic environmental assessment approach of a product or a process. The effectiveness and efficiency of these ...
This paper describes the preliminary findings of a post-occupancy evaluation campaign conducted on contemporary and energy-efficient office buildings with different façades treatments. The aim is to investigate occupants’ comfort and perceived productivity ...
Analytical solutions for tunnel design are widely used in practical engineering, as they allow a quick analysis of design issues such as estimation of support requirement. In recent years, several papers analyzing the behavior of rock masses that obey the ...
“Introduction to Civil and Environmental Engineering Design I” is a sophomore-level class, required of Civil and Environmental Engineering (C EE) majors at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The main objective of this class is to teach studen ...
In the last three years there has been a proliferation of regional building rating systems across the Middle East. Most those emerging rating systems and labels imitate the British and American rating systems BREEAM and LEED that emerge from an impact redu ...
In this paper we compare 10 established frameworks for analyzing social-ecological systems. We limited ourselves to frameworks that were explicitly designed to be used by a wider community of researchers and practitioners. Although all these frameworks see ...
In recent years, the advancements of wireless technologies have led to rapid developments in the field of telecommunication, power delivery and bio-medical applications. During the evolution of a wireless technology, the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) ...
Visual comfort is one of the main concerns for the integration of daylighting strategies in workspaces. Depending on the occupants’ seating position, light distribution in the field-of-view (FOV) can range from interesting highlights to visually discomfort ...
Cyber-Physical Systems are integrations of computation and physical processes and as such, will be increasingly relevant to industry and people. The complexity of designing CPS resides in their heterogeneity. Heterogeneity manifest itself in modelin ...
