First published in 2005. Advanced Lighting Controls is edited by Craig DiLouie and written for engineers, architects, lighting designers, electrical contractors, distributors, and building owners and managers. Advanced lighting controls, indicated by research as the "next big thing," are now mandated by the ASHRAE/IES 91.1-1999 energy standard, the basis for all state energy codes in the U.S., and are becoming the norm rather than the exception in new construction. This book provides in-depth information about the major trends, technologies, codes, and design techniques shaping the use of today's lighting control systems, including dimming, automatic switching, and global as well as personal control.

Advanced materials are essential for economic security and human well-being, with applications in industries aimed at addressing challenges in clean energy, national security, and human welfare. Yet, it can take years to move a material to the market after its initial discovery. Computational techniques have accelerated the exploration and development of materials, offering the chance to move new materials to the market quickly.

Название: Ground Penetrating Radar: Improving sensing and imaging through numerical modeling

Год: 2021
Формат: PDF
Размер: 21 Мб
Язык: английский / English

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is a powerful sensing technology widely used for the non-destructive assessment of a variety of structures with different properties including dimensions, electrical properties, and moisture. After an introduction to the underlying concepts, this book guides the reader through the development and use of a GPR system, with an emphasis on the parameters that can be optimized, the theory behind assessment, and a coherent methodology to obtain results from a measured or simulated GPR signal. The authors then embark on a detailed discussion of support tools and numerical modelling techniques that can be applied to improve readings from GPR systems.
