Special Thermal Insulation Methods of Building Constructions with Nanomaterials
Journal Title: Acta Technica Jaurinensis - Year 2016, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
Nanotechnology-based materials have previously been used by space research, pharmaceuticals and electronics, but in the last decade several nanotechnology-based thermal insulation materials have appeared in the building industry. Nowadays they only feature in a narrow range of practice, but they offer many potential applications. These options are unknown for the most architects, who may simply be afraid of these materials owing to the incomplete and often contradictory special literature. Therefore, they are distrustful and prefer to apply the usual and conventional technologies. This article is intended to provide basic information about nanotechnology-based thermal insulation materials for designers. It describes their most important material properties, functional principles, applications and potential usage options in building construction.

Thermomechanical Analysis of Vibrations of Silent Block
Vehicle components made of rubber or rubber like polymers usually exhibit large deformations.Cyclic deformations may induce increasing in temperature in elastic materials. In this paper after the summary of the basic phy...
Queuing Models and Subspace Identification in Logistics
In modern logistics it might be helpful to describe the behavior of a complex logistical process as well as to determine the strength of relations between certain parameters of the system. In this paper a subspace identi...
Dynamic Analysis of a One-cylinder Engine Crankshaft
The article deals with the vibration analysis of a one-cylinder engine crankshaft. For the analysis, a sequential torsional multi-mass vibration model was created of the crank-mechanism. The natural frequencies and natur...
On Generalizations and Improvements to the Shannon-Fano Code
This paper examines the possibility of generalizing the Shannon-Fano code for cases where the output alphabet has more then 2 (n) symbols. This generalization is well-known for the famous Huffman code. Furthermore, we wi...
Parallel Numerical Creation of 2-parametric Bifurcation Diagram of Nonlinear Oscillators
This paper presents the numerical creation of 2-parametric bifurcation diagrams of nonlinear oscillators with a simple iterative algorithm, which can be easily parallelized. The parallel algorithm was tested with two sim...
