Increasing economic development, and growing population, generated during the last decades a very important growth of cities. Urban regions include nowadays more than half of the global population and, by 2030, this proportion is forecasted to increase to ...
(français dessous) Measurements of leaf area index (LAI), solar radiation under canopy, sap flow and soil humidity were made on a Marula tree (Sclerocarya birrea) in the commune of Madjoari, South-East of Burkina Faso, at the end of the rainy season of the ...
HiRadMat (High Irradiation to Materials) is a new facility under construction at CERN designed to provide high intensity beams in order to test raw materials and accelerator components with respect to the effect caused by the impact of pulsed, high intensi ...
This study investigates the potential for energy and water sustainability in hot and humid climates by utilizing the condensate captured from large dedicated air handling units (AHUs) for pre-cooling outdoor air in another AHU and subsequently offsetting c ...
In this paper we briefly describe three alternative techniques for modelling solar radiation in the urban context. These include the use of: (i) simple morphological parameters as indicators of radiation availability, (ii) a ray-tracing program in conjunct ...
Thermal comfort depends on heat exchanges of the body by conduction evapo-transpiration and convection to the air, and radiation to and from surrounding surfaces. Usual ways of sizing heating and cooling systems are based on homogeneous temperature in the ...
In the past decades the portion of the population living in urban areas has continuously increased. Due to the high building density, the microclimate in urban areas changed significantly compared to rural areas. The temperatures measured in urban areas ar ...

Thermal designers of data centers and server manufacturers are showing a greater concern regarding the cooling of the new generation data centers, which consume considerably more electricity and dissipate much more waste heat, a situation that is creating ...
In this paper we present an application of GIS and airborne light detection and ranging (LIDAR) data analysis for computation of morphological properties of buildings' descriptors in the context of an urban morphogenesis geo-simulator. The morphological de ...
