Eco-fired clay bricks made by adding spent coffee grounds: a sustainable way to improve buildings insulation
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2016)
Effects of thermophysiological and non-thermal factors on outdoor thermal perceptions: the Tomebamba riverbanks case
(2018)
Outdoor thermal comfort (OTC) is an indicator of urban-environmental sustainability. A better understanding of OTC requires exploring the effects of contextual, non-thermal and human-related factors on thermal sensation ...
Do female reproductive stage and phenotype influence thermal requirements in an oviparous lizard?
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-01)
Reproduction is an energetically costly activity that can alter thermal requirements in Squamata. This phenomenon has been largely studied in many viviparous species; however, little is known about the role of oviparous ...
Photothermal Study of Two Different Nanofluids Containing SiO2 and TiO2 Semiconductor Nanoparticles
(Springer/plenum Publishers, 2012-01-01)
Thermal and optical properties of two different nanofluids containing SiO2 and TiO2 semiconductor nanoparticles were studied by thermal lens spectrometry (TLS) and spectrophotometry. In the case of SiO2 nanofluids the ...

Lightweight recycled gypsum with residues of expanded polystyrene and cellulose fiber to improve thermal properties of gypsum
(2021-01-01)
In this study, different proportions of gypsum composite reinforced with recycled cellulose fibers and expanded polystyrene were produced to study the properties of thermal conductivity, density, and flexural strength to ...
The Effects of Host, Geographic Origin, and Gender on the Thermal Requirements of Diaphorina citri (Hemiptera: Psyllidae)
(ENTOMOLOGICAL SOC AMER, 2010)
Diaphorina citri Kuwayama (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) is the vector of the bacteria that causes citrus greening and is considered one of the world`s most important citrus diseases. We examined how host, geographic region, and ...
The effect of wall thermal capacity and thermal resistance in the energy efficiency of small office
(AshraeDoha, Qatar, 2014-02-24)
Historically, many ancient civilizations erected buildings that happened to have high thermal inertia. In places with high daily amplitude of air temperature and intense solar radiation, buildings made of heavy elements ...
