Enhancing daylighting in heritage buildings is a complex challenge that requires a delicate balance between preserving architectural integrity and improving visual comfort.This paper investigates enhancing daylight in heritage buildings, balancing preservation and visual comfort.It focuses on a Hockey Protective - Shin Pads - Senior 1905 heritage b
Land-use and land-cover (LULC) themes are important for many domains, especially when they process environmental and socio-economic phenomena.The evolution of a land-use database called Open Land Use (OLU) Baby Toothpaste started in 2013 and was continued by adapting many user requirements.The goal of this study was to design a new version of the O
Globalization and identity are concepts too vague to describe the complexity of contemporary architecture and cities.In the past, for instance, some global integration processes turned into distinctive characteristics of particular contexts.The cardo-decuman layouts of the Hellenistic-Roman civilization are now part of the identity of most of the W
In this paper the objective is to force the outputs of nonlinear nonaffine multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems to track those of a linear system with the desired properties.The approach is based on designing higher order sliding mode controller (HOSMC) with the definition of a new proportional-integral (PI) sliding surface.To this end, a linear
Landscape dynamics are determined by interactions amongst geomorphic processes.These interactions allow the effects of tectonic, climatic and seismic perturbations to propagate across topographic domains, and permit the impacts of geomorphic process events to radiate from their point of origin.Visual remote sensing and in situ observations do not f
