This second paper applies the simulation framework, by means of a parametric study on a specific building typology in a particular climatic region, to explore the potential of adaptive insulation in this context.
However, only few experiments to determine the wind forces on rectangular buildings having different side ratios but same cross-sectional area at different wind incidence angles are reported in the literature, although pressure fluctuations and responses on a specific building have been studied.
In this work, we propose and apply a specific procedure based on a priori considerations to a specific building type: the post-World War II Italian Schools.
In addition, scores on the instrument can be used to make structured comparisons between different residential care facilities in terms of overall environmental quality, or in terms of profiles of scores on domains or within specific building locations, and for the setting of quality targets.
It focuses on the requirements that this specific building element should fulfill, with regard to legal, technical, social and financial aspects.
Evidence is limited on the role of each specific building block in relation to access to fortified maize flour and corn meal.
For example, if there is a municipal plan to deploy Wi-Fi AP on a specific road for building a vehicular network, it would be more reasonable to deploy APs at an intersection, where most vehicles might stop for a while.
In order to face these issues, the paper presents the results of a diagnostic analysis carried out on a specific monumental masonry building: the Civic Museum of the small city of Sansepolcro in Tuscany.
Reinhold and Sparks (1979), Isyumov and Poole (1983), Tallin and Ellingwood (1985), Kareem (1985), Lythe and Surry (1990) and Beneke and Kwok (1993) investigated the mean torque and torsional excitation on specific building models resulting from non-uniform pressure distributions, and from non-symmetric cross-sectional geometries.
Then, this model is valid only on a specific urban form, with specific building's archetypes and envelopes, occupant behavior, thus for a specific town.
The model proves the damage was the result of an "architectural missile", capable of being detonated on a specific floor of a building, while the "shadows" – where there are no shrapnel marks – denote the locations of the victims killed in the attack.
