Matlab/Simulink-Based Modeling for Industrial Electric Vehicle

2023

The land transport sector has passed through multiple phases of evolution in design, development, and manufacturing of vehicles. In particular, the construction site continues to progress towards the autonomous vehicles (also called self-driving), which were one of its big trends and have become a hot topic in the industrial and academic world. By now, with this new technology of autonomous driving, we can ensure safety by reducing the number of road accidents, also the environmental impact and energy consumption is lessened. The modeling and simulation phases had become a mandatory step to design, characterize and simulate vehicle dynamics while reducing the cost of development. As they pr…

Role of Sky-gardens in Improving Energy Performance of Tall Buildings

2018

Natural ventilation has been used as a passive strategy for many decades but only now its importance in tall buildings for addressing the issues of high energy usage and reducing carbon footprints is emerging. Sky-gardens can play an important role in successful implementation of natural ventilation through amplification of natural wind speeds. This study presents a state-of-the-art review on optimization of tall buildings energy performance through incorporation of sky-gardens. Pros and cons of use of natural ventilation for multi-story buildings are highlighted. Details of involved technical difficulties and barriers in the construction and operation process of sky-gardens are also given.…

Indicateurs sur les inégalités du capital humain

2007

07095; Cette contribution a pour objectif de construire un indicateur sur les inégalités du capital humain, calculé à partir de la combinaison de deux sous-indicateurs d'inégalités. Le premier concerne le coefficient de Gini basé sur le nombre d'années scolaires. Le second prend en compte quatre autres dimensions des inégalités.

PROTEZIONE E MIGLIORAMENTO DELLE PRESTAZIONI ANTINCENDIO NEI TEATRI ALL’ITALIANA. FIRE PROTECTION AND PERFORMANCE UPGRADE IN ITALIAN STYLE THEATRES

2018

Se storicamente gli incendi sono stati la causa principale di distruzione di molti teatri all’italiana, ancora in un recente passato interventi di conservazione, restauro e adeguamento alle norme antincendio, in alcuni casi incolti e irrispettosi, ne hanno stravolto gli elementi architettonico-costruttivi caratterizzanti. Come per ogni edificio storico, ancor più nei Teatri, in cui l’effimero connota molte parti della costruzione, è necessario garantire oltre alla salvaguardia delle vite umane, la protezione dell’edificio e del suo valore intrinseco. Il processo per raggiungere livelli adeguati di prestazioni e sicurezza antincendio pone pertanto molte sfide per i legislatori, i progettisti…

A Research Review on Building Information Modeling in Construction―An Area Ripe for IS Research

2012

Published version of article of an article in the journal: Communications of the Association for Information Systems. Also available from the publisher : http://http://aisel.aisnet.org/cais/vol31/iss1/10/ This article presents a review of the research on Building Information Modeling (BIM) in construction, with the aim of identifying areas in this domain where IS research can contribute. The concept of BIM comprises an infrastructure of IT tools supporting collaborative and integrated design, assembly, and operation of buildings. This integrated construction approach, with all stakeholders editing or retrieving information from commonly shared models, requires major changes to well-establis…

Determination of disproportionate tenders in public procurement

2013

[EN] Public procurement is one of the fundamental pillars of the construction sector and the understanding of its statutory regulation is one of the keys to success. The government regulates the concept of disproportionate tenders to avoid deals that are too low, something which could jeopardise the execution of the work or cause problems during implementation such as conflicting prices, project modifications and delays. The criteria for determining the disproportionality of the offers are numerous and each contracting authority determines which to use in each process by carrying out a comparative analysis. The results show that the formulas of disproportionality based on a percentage of th…
