This program encompassed an analytical and experimental inveSLigdgion 0, the application of passive thermal control techniques to extravehicular flexible space garments in 300 nautical mile earth orbits. Results indicate that passive thermal control by varying the absorptance and emittance of the outer surface of the garment is not possible when internal heat generated is in excess of 1500 Btu/...

For investigating the detail effects of the vibration absorbers in the cavity of the double-layer wall (DLW), a vibro-acoustic numerical model was developed and the behavior of the system was simulated by the finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD method). By comparing the results for various cases, the mechanism of the vibration absorber in the DLW and the effects of the location side and ...

The long-term pressure on a properly functioning modern infrastructure is the main reason for the development of new construction elements and technological processes. In the case of buildings, this development can offer original and significant improvements in aesthetic, functional and economical terms. Then the implemented structural elements and technological systems have a major impact on t...

The importance of indoor mobile connectivity has increased during the last years, especially Covid-19 pandemic. In contrast, new energy-efficient buildings contain structures like low-emissive windows and multi-layered thermal insulations which all block radio signals effectively. To solve this problem with connectivity, we study passive antenna systems embedded in walls low-energy buildings. W...
