The energy consumption, which is used during the life cycle of a building, is a huge amount affected by the energy demand for material and building construction, HVAC and lighting systems, maintenance, equipment, and demolition.
These typical projects are constructed in most of the regions with a same geometry and properties [12].
There is not any mechanical ventilation in the real projects, so the ventilation is assumed to be done through windows of classrooms during the break times.
The primary energy conversion factors for the fuel types consumed in Turkey are given as 1.00 for natural gas and 2.36 for electricity [16].
Moreover, for calculation CO2 emission during use stage, the emission factors for natural gas and electricity were taken as 0.234 and 0.626 kg.eq.CO2.kWh-1, respectively [19].

The main disadvantage of 3D printing is that the mechanical movement speed of nozzle is limited, so the processing efficiency is not so high, and the applicable scope is restricted.

A quantitative analysis demonstrates that the observed effect may be understood by coupling of elastic stress and vacancy currents, which in turn affects the transport of the atomic species.
To demonstrate effects that may change the diffusion coefficient only by a factor 2 to 3, very accurate measurements are required, which rely on a direct comparison between two arrangements.
Based on a vacancy mechanism and neglecting complicating aspects like thermodynamic factors or electron wind, we may formulate for the transport currents of both atomic species x c D x c Dj x c D x c Dj V V B B B B B V V A A A A A d d d d d d d d ν ν ν ν +−= +−= , (10) which leads in analogy to the Darken equations to the interdiffusion current of B atoms Fig. 6: Hydrostatic stress and strain aspect versus interfacial curvature (a) (calculated for a reaction layer thickness of 5 nm) and (b) versus thickness of reaction product (calculated for a curvature of 1/35 nm).
The direction of the stress difference is indeed compatible to the direction of the observed asymmetry and the expected kinetic properties of the forming intermetallic.
This way, the stress becomes limited to an almost constant value that is controlled by yield strength or creeping properties of the sample materials.

There are various types of manipulators are available, we can cite: laser tweezers and mechanical grippers [15] etc.
Theory Subjected to a non-uniform electric field, a neutral but polarizable particle experiences a time-averaged DEP force FDEP, the FDEP in an AC field is given by FDEP=2πR3εmRe[K(ω)]▽E2 (1) where R is the radius of the particle, εm the permittivity of the suspending medium, ω the field frequency, E the root mean square (RMS) value of the electric field and Re[K(ω)] is the real part of the Claussius–Mossotti factor which describes the relationship between the complex permittivities of the particle and the medium [22].
Besides polarizability, the applied frequency also affects the direction of DEP [23].

The small size of these particles endows them with unusual structural, electronic, optical, magnetic and chemical properties, leading to many important applications such as catalyst, electro-optical devices and precursor phases to advanced ceramics [1-3].
The distribution of supersaturation in a reaction system is the other important factor in the dependence of particle size distribution on it [5].
In addition, the development of novel materials requires smaller sized particles and additive powders with good dispersing properties in water in order to form a stable suspension [8].
Direct precipitation (DP) procedure: 200 ml 0.25M BaCl2 was added to 200 ml 0.25 M Na2SO4 solution without any dispersant at strong mechanical agitation in a stirred tank reactor.
The uncomplexed EDTA was also able to affect the morphology by directly adsorbing onto the barium sulfate surface [23].

Besides the recombination, many other factors such as incident light intensity, fraction of the incident light absorbed by the photo catalyst, the type of the catalyst, its particle size, specific surface area, structural and photo-physical properties etc. are known to influence the kinetics of CO2 photo reduction. 3.2.
The critical factors are the choice of the pair for co-doping, level of doping and effective method of introducing dopants.

Bearing losses depend on the shaft speed, bearing type, properties of the lubricant and the load on the bearing.
We evaluate the efficiency maps of the machines within the mechanical speed range produced by the medium Stirling engine (around 2000 rpm).
As a result, the choice of the electric generator and their renewable energies supply are taken randomly by researchers which will affect negatively the overall output of the generator set.

Measurements performed on all tested concrete formulations proved that the most significant factor influencing development of temperatures during hydration is the cement content.
While common concretes according to ČSN EN 206-1 contain substitution of cement with fly-ash on the level of about 10 % of weight, the our proposed concept of FAC allows obtaining of substitution higher than 30 % of weight with the same standard strength class of concrete, allowing comfortable de-moulding and equal or even better physical and mechanical parameters (long-term strengths, volume changes, development of hydration heat) and parameters of durability (resistance against carbonatation, water-tightness).
