RISProject Management in the Chinese Construction Industry: Six-Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Originating from the West, project management was introduced into China after the country’s economic reforms in the 1980’s and has since spread quickly throughout the whole country, particularly in the construction industry. ...
Displacement of Natural Ventilation in an Enclosure With a Convective/Radiative Heat Source and Nonadiabatic Envelopes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper studies the real case of naturally ventilated space with a convective/radiative heat source and nonadiabatic envelopes. The real envelopes and heat source are introduced into a simple ...
A Surface Energy Density-Based Theory of Nanoelastic Dynamics and Its Application in the Scattering of P-Wave by a Cylindrical Nanocavity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The scattering of elastic waves in nanoporous materials is inevitably influenced by the surface effect of nanopores. In order to investigate such a dynamic problem with surface effect of nanomaterials, a new theory of ...
A Zonal Model for Large Enclosures With Combined Stratification Cooling and Natural Ventilation: Part 1—Model Generation and its Procedure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes a combined system of stratificated air conditioning and natural ventilation for large enclosures, which uses stratificated air conditioning to cool the occupied part of a ...
