Energy Conservation in an Office Building Using an Enhanced Blind System Control
Carrascal Lecumberri, Edorta; Garrido Hernández, Izaskun ; ; Garrido Hernández, Aitor Josu ; ; (MDPI, 2017-02)
The two spaces office module is usually considered as a representative case-study to analyse the energetic improvement in office buildings. In this kind of buildings, the use of a model predictive control (MPC) scheme for ... -
Energy Consumption for Ion-Transport in a Segmented Paul Trap
Tobalina Novo, Ander; Alonso, Joseba; (IOP Publishing LTD, 2018-06-12)
There is recent interest in determining energy costs of shortcuts to adiabaticity (STA), but different definitions of ' cost' have been used. Wedemonstrate the importance of taking into account the control system (CS) for ... -
Energy consumption for shortcuts to adiabaticity
; ; ; Tobalina Novo, Ander; ; ; (APS, 2017-08-25)
Shortcuts to adiabaticity let a system reach the results of a slow adiabatic process in a shorter time. We propose to quantify the “energy cost” of the shortcut by the energy consumption of the system enlarged by including ... -
Energy demands of diverse spiking cells from the neocortex, hippocampus, and thalamus
Moujahid, Abdelmalik; D’Anjou, Alicia; (Frontiers Research Foundation, 2014-04-08)
It has long been known that neurons in the brain are not physiologically homogeneous. In response to current stimulus, they can fire several distinct patterns of action potentials that are associated with different ... -
Energy efficiency of wood facade
(2017-03-17)[EN]Environmental protection and sustainable energy have been the main debate in recent years. Every country in the world is trying find ecological and sustainable ways to foster progress in their respective countries ... -
Energy efficiency optimisation in industrial processes: Integral decision support tool
; ; Del Portillo Valdés, Luis Alfonso; ; (Elsevier, 2020)
Assessing and improving energy efficiency in manufacturing processes is a crucial issue for companies who wish to become competitive. In addition, there are high margins of technical energy efficiency improvement for ... -
Energy Efficiency versus Heritage—Proposal for a Replicable Prototype to Maintain the Architectural Values of Buildings in Energy Improvement Interventions on Facades: The Case of the Expansion of San Sebastián
