Modeling and validation of the thermal performance of an affordable, energy efficient, healthy dwelling unit

  [CiTO]
Building Simulation, Vol. 4, No. 3. (1 September 2011), pp. 255-262, doi:10.1007/s12273-011-0024-9

Abstract

The thermal performance of an affordable energy-efficient single-story residential building designated as Tuskegee Healthy House (THH) was simulated by developing a computational model for the house using Visual DOE-4 commercial software. Visual DOE-4 package employs the same calculation engine of the proven DOE-2 building Energy Analysis program. The THH was built from conventional building materials and construction methods according to the southern building codes of the United States. Several energy efficiency and air quality control features were incorporated throughout the THH. ...

 

Polymeric Additives and Their Role in Asphaltic Pavements. Part I: Effect of Additive Type on the Fracture and Fatigue Behavior

  [CiTO]
Journal of Elastomers and Plastics, Vol. 25, No. 4. (1 October 1993), pp. 307-321, doi:10.1177/009524439302500403

Abstract

The effect of polymer modifier type on the fracture and fatigue be havior of AC-5 asphalt mixture was studied. Three polymer modifiers which belong to the general group of thermoplastic polymers; styrene-butadiene- styrene block copolymer (Kraton), ethylene vinyl acetate (Elvax) and polyeth ylene (Novophalt) were considered. Beams were prepared from AC-5 asphalt binder containing 6% of each polymer modifier by weight and the same grada tion. Flexural static tests were performed to evaluate the three polymer modifiers in comparison with unmodified ...

 

Strength and toughness improvement of cement binders using expandable thermoplastic microspheres

  [CiTO]
Construction and Building Materials, Vol. 23, No. 8. (August 2009), pp. 2856-2861, doi:10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2009.02.031

Abstract

The effect of Expandable Thermoplastic Microspheres (ETM) loading on the fracture resistance and indirect tensile strength of cement binders is studied. Portland white cement (PWC) was used as the matrix in the current study. Loadings of 0.1%, 0.35%, 0.5%, 0.75% and 1%, by weight, of ETM were added to the dry cement. Semi-circular bend specimens, 152 mm in diameter and 27 mm thickness with different notch depths were fabricated to study the crack resistance of the compounds, J c . For the ...

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
