Background and Objectives: In recent decades, inadequate attention by designers to the thermal performance of commercial building façades has resulted in significant thermal inefficiencies in such complexes. This study ...

Phase change materials (PCM) are receiving ever-growing attention as a promising construction material for improving building energy performance through thermal storage and peak load shifting. The analysis of PCM perform...

The article describes the methodology for experimental studies of an arch made of high-strength rapid-hardening concrete, presents the results of the studies in tabular form, and describes the mechanical characteristics ...

Radiative cooling is a passive cooling strategy that leverages thermal radiation to dissipate heat into a cooler environment, offering an energy-efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional cooling ...

We examine the role of emotional intelligence (EI) and self-awareness as critical drivers of effective leadership in healthcare institutions. Our focus is on the specific nature of healthcare management environments, whe...

Activity on social platforms is vital for athletes/athletes/sports clubs to spread their message. It's a great approach to get in touch with fans personally, inform them about new products or services, and humanize the...

This article presents the results of a numerical study on the performance of various configurations of lightweight monolithic slabs of the BubbleDeck system, which use hollow plastic ball inserts to eliminate inefficient...

This paper examines the potential of centering the common good in urban development as a way to address municipal growth dependencies – the structural link between market performance and municipalities’ capacity to...

The increasing global temperatures have escalated the demand for indoor cooling, thus requiring energy-saving solutions. Traditional approaches often integrate metal layers in cooling windows to block near-infrared (NIR)...

Reliable anchorage of cast-in-place headed bolts in unreinforced concrete is vital in structural and industrial applications, where inaccurate strength predictions can compromise safety and efficiency. This study develop...
