Abstract: Overall thermal transfer value (OTTV) is taken as a parameter for controlling the building energy use in many places such as the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR, formerly Hong Kong) and Singapore. However, ...

Abstract: The unsteady flow past a disc‐type valve in an axisymmetric tube has been calculated numerically from the governing Navier‐Stokes equations. The flow is assumed to be laminar and incompressible, and the fluid possesses ...

Abstract: The upgrading and evaluation of waste paper sludge fly ash (PsFA) as a cement substitute in wood-wool composite boards (WWCB) is investigated in the present study. This type of board is widely applied in the building ...

Abstract: This paper presents an intuitive sketching tool for human-computer interactively designing and modeling the vascular structure. Our system supports freehand outlining of the initial vascular structure ...
