LESSONS OF EASTER ISLAND
March 17th, 2016
Some observers like to see Easter Island as a metaphor for the modern world. However, it is importan[...]
THE ROLE OF PROPERTY RIGHTS AND OPEN ACCESS
March 17th, 2016
A presumption underlying the analysis here is that property rights were incomplete, perhaps not to t[...]

March 17th, 2016
Geothermal power stations have their own unique developmental, operational, technical, and environm[...]
Simulation of Easter Island
March 17th, 2016
Perhaps the most revealing method of analysis of this dynamic system is through simulation. It is po[...]
Population Growth
March 17th, 2016
To describe population growth, we adopt the linear form used by Lotka and Volterra in their original[...]

Other Growth Functions
March 17th, 2016
The logistic growth function is no doubt far from being a perfect approximation to the growth of the[...]
The Silencer
March 16th, 2016
A geothermal silencer is like a separator operating at atmospheric pressure. It is normally connecte[...]
The Flasher/Separator

The starting point for describing the evolution of a renewable resource stock is the logistic growth[...]
Calculation assumptions
The reflectivity of walls, ground and ceiling are respectively 0.75, 0.45 and 0.75.
The Lighting French Association recommands an illuminance level of 300 lux in a typical office
[4] . In this study, the value of acceptable illuminance level has been set to 300 lux. To quantify the mean daylight autonomy in the room, the room has been divided into three equal strips (see Figure 3). The illuminance level is supposed to be the worst in the middle strip. For this reason, we will focus on this specific zone.
3. Results and discussion
This section presents some preliminary results of the study to determine a combination between the solar shading and daylighting in buildings.
