Environmental impact assessment of new district developments
( WITPress , 2014 , Conference)Over the last decade, the term "sustainability" has figured prominently in city planning discussions aiming to create comfortable places to live, work, learn and relax. In an accelerated world, the need to set standards ... -
The (IM)-possible mosque: Spatial mutation and identity needs in northern Ireland
( Emerald Publishing , 2012 , Article)Over more than thirty years of violent conflict, Northern Ireland had an intense sectarian violence due to the political-religious opposition between its Catholic and Protestant communities. The history of the Muslim ... -
Impact of composition and salinity on swelling and gel strength of poly (acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) preformed particle gel
( Institute for Ionics , 2023 , Article)The effects of various material compositions and reservoir environments on the ultimate strength and swelling kinetics of a commercial preformed particle gel (PPG) have been investigated. This study used different ratios ... -
Development of eco-friendly chitosan-g-polyacrylamide preformed particle gel for conformance control in high-temperature and high-salinity reservoirs
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Oil and gas extraction has become challenging nowadays due to the accompanying amount of excess produced water that results in poor recoverability of hydrocarbon, besides other environmental and economic isues. A recent ... -
Biomimetic kinetic shading facade inspired by tree morphology for improving occupant’s daylight performance
( Solarlits , 2021 , Article)Many recent studies in the field of the kinetic façade developed the grid-based modular forms through primary kinetic movements which are restricted in the simple shapes. However, learning from biological analogies reveals ... -
Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) analysis of a two-sided windcatcher integrated with anti-short-circuit device for lowwind conditions
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2020 , Article)Windcatchers are considered as promising passive ventilation and cooling strategy, but the ventilation performance of this system is still of concern in areas with low speed and unpredictable winds. The air short circuiting ... -
