For naturally ventilated buildings (NVB) located in the tropical regions, thermal comfort (TC) prediction based on predicted mean vote (PMV) standard has shown some deviations from the observed results. Hot and humid environmental... more
This survey of thermal comfort in classrooms aimed to define empirically the preferred temperatures, neutral temperatures and acceptable temperature ranges for Australian school children, and to compare them with findings from adult... more
For example, thermal indices that are derived from the energy balance of the human body can be of great use for tourism. Standard climate data, such as air temperature, air humidity and wind speed are required in order to calculate and... more
This study provides comprehensive details of evaporative cooling options for building air-conditioning (AC) in Multan (Pakistan). Standalone evaporative cooling and standalone vapor compression AC (VCAC) systems are commonly used in... more
Bioclimatic conditions have been assessed for a large urban area located in the tropical highlands of central Mexico using the indices (in °C) of resultant temperature (RT) and effective temperature (ET). The well-developed heat island... more

In this study the contribution of meteorological parameters to the total variability of respiratory infections (RI) is analysed. For this purpose, data on the daily numbers of general practitioner (GP) consultations for RI during the year... more

In this paper, we describe a computational model dedicated to building an apnoea monitoring system for newborn babies. The proposed model is based on whole body plethysmography, which involves non-invasive measurement of lung ventilation... more
