USING A CALIBRATED MULTI-ZONE BUILDING MODEL TO ANALYSE THE IMPACT OF OCCUPANT BEHAVIOUR ON BUILDING PERFORMANCE

Using a calibrated multi-zone building model to analyse the impact of occupant behaviour on building performance

Building performance simulation has been commonly used for performance-based building design.However, the simulation accuracy is closely related to the model and input parameters regarding the building physics and occupant behaviour.To check and improve the accuracy of the simulation, the model usually needs to be calibrated using measured data.Unc

Multiset concepts in two-universe approximation spaces

Abstract Rough set theory over two universes is a generalization of rough set model to find accurate approximations for uncertain concepts in information systems in which uncertainty arises from existence of interrelations between the three basic sets: objects, attributes, and decisions.In bismarck piping tip this work, multisets are approximated i

Diagnosis of adult ALCAPA with computed tomography coronary artery

Abstract Background Anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital anomaly where the left main coronary artery arises from the pulmonary artery, instead of the coronary sinus of the ascending aorta.ALCAPA is divided into infant and adult types.Life-threatening complications such as malignant dustin johnson sp

Pediatric laparoscopy: Facts and factitious claims

Background: Pediatric laparoscopy (LS) is claimed to be superior to open surgery (OS).This review questions the scientific veracity of this assertion by systematic analysis of published evidences comparing LS versus OS in infants and children.Materials and Methods: Search of PubMed data base and the available literature on pediatric LS is analyzed.
