This paper reports on the improvement and application of a new method for the prediction of earth-contact heat transfer.
This study forms part of an in-depth investigation of the critical issue of earth-contact heat transfer to and from buildings.
We showed how the resulting Earth-Contact Dance could bridge languages that could be misinterpreted as contradictory, such as native traditional belief systems and western earth sciences, to create a new way of looking at volcanic activity and hazard.
This method proved to be accurate and fast in solving the three-dimensional earth-contact heat transfer, which may involve a certain number of heating zones (rooms) interacting with several different temperature profiles.
Under the Sāsānians the injunction not to pollute the earth by contact with corpses but to expose the dead on mountaintops to vultures and dogs was strictly observed.
A segregation phenomenon driven by preferential Gd oxidation, because of high reactivity of rare earths in contact with aqueous media, resulted in enrichment of the surface film with metallic Ni.
To send the rover daily instructions, Nasa uses direct-to-Earth transmissions, contacting Curiosity via the X-band segment of the radio region of the electromagnetic spectrum, portions of which are reserved for deep-space communications.
Working on the basis that the further we go into the reaches of the cosmos, the less likely the astronauts on the spaceship will be able to contact earth for assistance, this device will enable any crew member no matter how insignificant their medical knowledge to diagnose problems and potentially perform surgery, using guidance from CAMDASS.
"Part of the transmission reads: 'We have occasionally monitored your primitive communications for years but have never had any reason to contact Earth--until we saw that shirt!
Earthing, movement to promote direct contact with the Earth.
