Photovoltaics (PV) can make a significant contribution to achieving carbon neutrality in buildings. Geographic information systems (GIS) it easy model cities and simulate PV with high accuracy. However, the computational burden from 3D urban models remains high. In this study, complex geometry of city was represented 2D images, we propose method for performing multiple simulations short amount ...

Plexiform schwannoma is a type of schwannoma that can be occured at any age and any site of the oral cavity. In the gross and histopathological features, it shows plexiform or multinodular growth pattern. This variant of schwannoma is sometimes associated with neurofibromatosis type II or schwannomatosis. Histopathologically, plexiform schwannoma is composed of schwann cells that show Anthony...

As Korea has declared to realize a net-zero emission by 2050 in the Paris Agreement, country begun implement national energy efficiency policies through Green Standard for Energy and Environmental Design (G-SEED) certification revision of building insulation thickness standard. However, some studies have reported ineffectiveness G-SEED standard reducing consumption certain buildings. Therefore,...

Crossbred weanling pigs (n = 96, average initial weight, 8.4 kg) were used in a 6-wk trial using a 2 x 2 x 3 factorial arrangement of treatments to determine the effects of floor space allowance (.28 and .14 m2/pig), dietary Se (40 and 200 ppb), and dietary Zn (30, 80, and 250 ppm) on growth performance, clinical pathology measurements, serum minerals, and enzymes, liver enzymes, and adrenal we...

BACKGROUND Endonasal transsphenoidal microsurgery is often adopted in the resection of pituitary adenoma, and has showed satisfactory treatment and minor injuries. It is important to accurately localize sellar floor and properly incise the bone and dura matter. METHODS Fifty-one patients with pituitary adenoma undergoing endonasal transsphenoidal microsurgery were included in the present stud...

The literature states that project duration is affected by various scope factors. Using 168 building projects carried out in Spain, this paper uses the multiple regression analysis to develop a forecast model that allows estimating project duration of new builds. The proposed model uses project type, gross floor area (GFA), the cost/GFA relationship and number of floors as predictor variables. ...

Clearcutting a forest ecosystem can result in a drastic reduction of stand productivity. Despite the severity of this disturbance type, past studies have found that the productivity of young regenerating stands can quickly rebound, approaching that of mature undisturbed stands within a few years. One of the obvious reasons is increased leaf area (LA) with each year of recovery. However, a less ...
