Monitoring and control of the greenhouse environment play a decisive role in greenhouse production processes. Assurance of optimal climate conditions has a direct influence on crop growth performance, but it usually increases the required equipment cost. Traditionally, greenhouse installations have required a great effort to connect and distribute all the sensors and data acquisition systems. T...

Artificial Nature is a trans-disciplinary research project drawing upon bio-inspired system theories in the production of engaging immersive worlds as art installations. Embodied world making and immersion are identified as key components in an exploration of creative ecosystems toward art-as-it-could-be. A detailed account of the design of a successfully exhibited creative ecosystem is given i...

Purpose. Performing the analysis to determine energy-efficient modes and assess characteristics of main indicators electric power consumption by mine water-drainage installations based on developed research mathematical model. Methods. To achieve purpose set, a methodology is used develop multiple multifactor correlation-regression modeling with respect electrical mechanical complexes installat...

Traditional lightning protection practices were standardized many years prior to the recent proliferation of modern electrical and electronic equipment installations on building rooftops. This paper presents an isolated down-conductor solution that combines the advantages of the IEC 623051 series or various other national standards regarding isolated and non-isolated lightning protection method...

This paper gives a brief summary of acoustical theory based on human perception. It then uses this theory to discuss the design and performance data of electronic acoustic enhancement systems installed in a number of opera houses and concert halls. The installations include the Deutches Staatsoper in Berlin, the Hummingbird Center in Toronto, and the Adelaide Festival Center Theater in Adelaide...
