Fiber optics is a cutting-edge technology with boundless potential for transmitting natural light inside buildings.Imaging Solar concentrators are very efficient in focusing light within the approximate numerical aperture of fiber optics.The proof-of-concept of fiber optics concentration daylight systems was investigated and elaborated for only sin
GeoTh is a new, simple, efficient, flexible, low-cost experimental laboratory apparatus.These features b-0665-cr-bstr make it an excellent technological tool for measuring the thermal conductivity of granular materials, e.g., soils, sand, silt, clay or artificial composites.In particular, a configuration based on the one-dimensional heat conduction
The activities in the 2006-2007 b-0665-cr-bstr austral summer of the 48th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE-48) are reported.JARE-48 consisted of 62 personnel including 27 summer personnel and 35 wintering personnel.In addition, several observers joined to the voyage of Icebreaker Shirase (four Japanese), operation at Dome Fuji Station (
