Mechanical exhaust ventilation system is typical in apartment buildings in Finland. In most buildings the base floor between the first floor apartments and crawl space is not air tight. As the apartments have lower pressure than the crawl space due to ventilation, contaminated air may flow from the crawl space to the apartments. The object of this study was to find out whether a potential air f...

the use of solar collectors in combination with heat pipes is rapidly growing in recent years.heat pipes, as heat transfer components, have undeniable advantages in comparison with other alternatives. the most important advantage is their high rate of heat transfer at minor temperature differences. although there have been numerous studies on the heat analysis or first thermodynamic analysis of...

We have solved equations of motion of a σ–model in curved background using the fact that the Poisson–Lie T-duality can transform them into the equations in the flat one. For finding solution of the flat model we have used transformation of coordinates that makes the metric constant. The T-duality transform was then explicitly performed.

the Grand President of the League, and Princess Alice, Countess of Athlone, the Lady President. Consequently, when the Prince came into the garden from Clarence House at four o'clock, the lawns which lie in front of the State apartments were thronged. In the absence abroad of Lord Wolferton, the senior Honorary Secretary, the Prince was received by Sir William Collins and Sir James Harrison, Ho...

The aim is to develop an application which will provide the functionality to manage regular operations of the residential apartments. The main objective of the project is to develop the application software for the different apartments which will be useful for all of them. Working efforts of the members and the managing body of the apartment will be reduced to maintain the society. It mainly su...

This paper concerns a goal directed proof procedure for the propositional fragment of the adaptive logic ACLuN1. The procedure forms an algorithm for final derivability and may easily be generalized for the propositional fragment of all flat adaptive logics. The aim is to articulate a procedure that, if extended to the predicative level, provides criteria for

Currently, trauma funding in Ontario is based on a flat rate per case. However, the distribution of the measures of resource utilization, such as average length of stay, hours in intensive care, and resource intensity weights in Ontario Lead Trauma Hospitals, suggests that facilities differ in patient case mix. For instance, average hours in intensive care ranged from 62 to 153 across facilitie...

in the present work, a prototype of a new type of solar collectors, which called direct absorption solar collector, was built and its thermal performance is experimentally compared with conventional flat plate solar collector under transient and steady state conditions. different volume fractions of multi wall carbon nanotubes in water and ethylene glycol mixture (70%:30% in volume) were used a...

introduction:balance impairments are one of the important complications in subjects with functional ankle instability (fai) that has been reported to be associatedwithjoint mechanoreceptorinjuries. textured insole effecting on plantar cutaneous of the feet, may improve postural control and reduce the risk of injury in subjects with fai.the aim of this study therefore was to investigate the effe...
