  2. IDA Indoor Climate and Energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IDA_Indoor_Climate_and_Energy

    IDA ICE provides a 3D environment for geometry modeling, the table-based input of boundary conditions provide good visual feedback and enables efficient quality check. A simple procedure for calculating and reporting cooling, heating, air demand, and energy, together with a built-in version handling system, makes it efficient to compare ...

  3. Energy efficiency in transport - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_efficiency_in_transport

    The energy efficiency in transport is the useful travelled distance, of passengers, goods or any type of load; divided by the total energy put into the transport propulsion means. The energy input might be rendered in several different types depending on the type of propulsion, and normally such energy is presented in liquid fuels , electrical ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dive_planning

    The calculations assume that the dive profile, including decompression, is known, but the process may be iterative, involving changes to the dive profile as a consequence of the gas requirement calculation, or changes to the gas mixtures chosen. [11] [6] Scuba gas planning includes the following aspects: [11] [6] Choice of breathing gases

  6. Chevrolet Volt (first generation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Volt_(first...

    General Motors also advocated for a more simplified mpg calculation method to take into account the range of a plug-in hybrid while running solely on electricity. Given the Volt's ability to travel 40 miles (64 km) on batteries alone, GM contended that most drivers with a daily commute of less than that distance would exclusively use electric ...

  7. Reinforced concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinforced_concrete

    A balanced-reinforced beam is one in which both the compressive and tensile zones reach yielding at the same imposed load on the beam, and the concrete will crush and the tensile steel will yield at the same time. This design criterion is however as risky as over-reinforced concrete, because failure is sudden as the concrete crushes at the same ...
