In this dissertation we introduce two variable selection procedures for multivariate responses. Our procedures are based on sufficient dimension reduction concepts and are model-free. In the first procedure we consider the dual marginal coordinate hypotheses, where the role of the predictor and the response is not important. Motivated by canonical correlation analysis (CCA), we propose a CCA-based test for the dual marginal coordinate hypotheses, and devise a joint backward selection algorithm for dual model-free variable selection. The second procedure is based on ordinary least squares (OLS). We derive and study the asymptotic properties of the OLS-based test under the normality assumption of the predictors as well as an asymmetry assumption. When these assumptions are violated, the asymptotic test with elliptical trimming and clustering is still valid with desirable numerical performances. A backward selection algorithm for the predictor is also provided for the OLS-based test. The performances of the proposed tests and the variable selection procedures are evaluated through synthetic examples and a real data analysis.

Pełny tekst źródłaDet existerar många olika astronomiska objekt som varierar i ljusstyrka. Allt från variabla stjärnor som Cepheiderna som periodvis expanderar och kontraherar dess yttre skikt, till aktiva galaxkärnor där ackretion av materia in i ett svart hål genererar en ofta varierande ljusstyrka. Ett flertal kandidater för just sådana varierande objekt har identifierats som ett resultat av VASCO projektet. Dessa kandidater har sedan skalats ner till en handfull mängd kandidater som visade variation mot den infraröda delen av spektrumet. Detta kandidatarbete siktar på att vidare undersöka dessa kandidater genom att använda diverse astronomiska databaser och kataloger för att få data från flera kartläggningsprojekt (t.ex. SDSS, 2MASS etc). Detta är gjort för att få en bättre överblick över objektens ljuskurvor över en större del av spektrumet, att fastställa ifall objekten är riktiga variabla objekt eller uppstått på grund av diverse fel, samt att framställa en hypotes för vad det är för typ av objekt de kan vara. Resultaten från undersökningarna pekar på att alla objekten är riktiga variabla objekt. Hypotesen är att alla av objekten är aktiva galaxkärnor som varierar i ljusstyrka.

We could not object such report in the fact that the legislator does not seem himself to carry him immense one interest. Indeed, the fact that the variability of the capital only results from the adoption, by a social form of common law, of a simple statutory clause, the latter does not see it necessary to enact a specific and independent legal regime in its favour. Also, should the legislator object to the creation of a new social form, it will consequently only reinforce the peculiarity of such objection. The fact remains that to stop such acceptance would be reducing in the fact that this approach would serve inexorably the specificity outlined in articles L. 231-1 in L. 231-8 of the commercial law in particular as for the numerous possibilities that she grants as long to the company being equipped with the legal specificity that to the partners making up her

Over the past 20 years, underwater vehicle technology has undergone drastic improvements, and vehicles are quickly gaining popularity as a tool for numerous oceanographic tasks. Systems used on the vehicle to alter buoyancy, or variable buoyancy (VB) systems, have seen only minor improvements during the same time period. Though current VB systems are extremely robust, their lack of performance has become a hinderance to the advancement of vehicle capabilities. This thesis first explores the current status of VB systems, then creates a model of each system to determine performance. Second, in order to quantitatively compare fundamentally different VB systems, two metrics, [beta]m and [beta]vol, are developed and applied to current systems. By determining the ratio of performance to size, these metrics give engineers a tool to aid VB system development. Finally, the fundamental challenges in developing more advanced VB systems are explored, and a couple of technologies are investigated for their potential use in new systems.

The reader will recall that the classical $p$-Lebesgue spaces are those functions defined on a measure space $(X, \mu)$ whose modulus raised to the $p^{\rm th}$ power is integrable. This condition gives many quantitative measurements on the growth of the function, both locally and globally. Results and applications pertaining to such functions are ubiquitous. That said, the constancy of the exponent $p$ when computing $\int_X \abs{f}^p d\mu$ is limiting in the sense that it is intrinsically uniform in scope. Speaking loosely, there are instances in which one is concerned with the $p$ growth of a function in a region $A$ and its $q$ growth in another region $B$. As such, allowing the exponent to vary from region to region (or point to point) is a reasonable course of action. The task of developing such a theory was first taken up by Wladyslaw Orlicz in the 1930's. The theory he developed, of which variable Lebesgue spaces are a special case, was only intermittently studied and analyzed through the end of the century. However, at the turn of the millennium, several results and their applications sparked a focused and intense interest in variable $L^p$ spaces. It was found that with very few assumptions on the exponent function many of the classical structure and density theorems are valid in the variable-exponent case. Somewhat surprisingly, these results were largely proved using intuitive adaptations of well-established methods. In fact, this methodology set the tone for the first part of the decade, where a multitude of ``affirmative'' results emerged. While the successful adaptation of classical results persists to a large extent today, there are nontrivial situations in which one cannot hope to extend a result known for constant $L^p$. In this paper, we wish to explore both of the aforementioned directions of research. We will first establish the fundamentals for variable $L^p$. Afterwards, we will apply these fundamentals to some classical $L^p$ results that have been extended to the variable setting. We will conclude by shifting our attention to Littlewood-Paley theory, where we will furnish an example for which it is impossible to extend constant-exponent results to the variable case.

All possible polarizations of the electromagnetic wave are achievable with this antenna which includes linear, circular and elliptical polarizations. Any tilt angle of elliptical polarization and any orientation of the linear polarization can be achieved as well. The polarization of the ferrite antenna can be electronically switched to a different polarization instantly without the use of moving parts. An automatic data acquisition system was designed and built to fully analyze the antenna' s characteristics.

Production agriculture is constantly evolving to become more efficient and productive. Crop residue serves as a valuable source of nutrients for the soil, but it is increasingly abundant with today’s enhanced crop genetics. If new technology can effectively provide a way to micro-manage crop residue levels within a field, the benefits will go beyond soil health. Surplus crop residue can be collected for secondary income while leaving the optimum amounts in the field to maintain the environment and soil health as well as promote future crop growth. The main objective of this study is to create a budget model that will determine the economic impact of crop residue removal on a controlled basis. The goals are to determine crop residue removal practices that are sustainable for the long-term, while also enhancing soil quality and increasing grain yield in future years. A sub-objective is to build a business case for producers to invest in variable crop residue management. The hypothesis presented in this study is that the increased complexity and price of a variable rate system is offset by more supplemental profits, increased crop yields, and better management of soil health and nutrients. The negative perceptions of crop residue removal include the fear of soil erosion or loss of soil organic matter. By developing a budget model that is easy to use, takes advantage of existing field data for inputs, and allows producers the ability to look at their operations on a sub-field level, this study aims to provide the necessary motivation to invest in new technology that will increase their productivity. By entering their site-specific crop residue return rate data into a budget model, along with prices and costs related to combine and auxiliary equipment, corn and corn stover, transportation and logistics, and nutrient replacement, they will come up with a return per acre for both constant rate and variable rate collection. The budget model determines whether it is economically viable to harvest crop residue from a continuous corn rotation at a variable rate across a field, rather than at a constant rate, using a producer’s own specific field data. To validate the concept, data from a joint study between John Deere and Iowa State is entered into the model. Prescriptions for corn stover return rates are provided from the study for pre-defined grid areas. Prescriptions are derived from a combination of data including grain yield, soil loss due to wind and water erosion, climate, topography, and soil sample data at time of planting (Nelson, et al. 2004). The average corn stover removal percentage was less for variable rate collection than constant rate collection, 26.05% to 31.85%. However, the assumption that grain yield and corn stover yield are positively correlated did not prove to be true in this case study. The variable rate plots had a lower average grain yield of 158.84 bushel/acre, compared to 160.46 for the constant rate plots, but they had more total corn stover available and therefore a higher return rate of 3.70 tons/acre, compared to 3.05 for the constant rate plots. This case study illustrates that less corn stover can be returned to the field through constant or variable rate collection while sustaining higher grain yields than a conventional harvest that would return all of the corn stover to the field. This case study demonstrates that variable rate collection can be more expensive than constant rate, but not in every situation. Every unique field site will require a specific crop residue management recommendation that is determined by both economic and environmental factors.

Os motores de taxa de compressão variável (VCR) têm se tornado uma oportunidade para a adequação frente às novas leis de redução de consumo de combustível e emissão de poluentes. Acredita-se que os motores VCR são capazes de unir tanto eficiência quanto alto desempenho. É objetivo desta pesquisa investigar as oportunidades de desenvolvimentos futuros no âmbito dos motores de taxa de compressão variável. A seguir, um breve resumo do trabalho e suas seções são apresentadas. Introdução: A introdução tem por objetivo apresentar a tecnologia de motores de taxa de compressão variável, suas características e justificativas para a pesquisa. Além disso, discutem-se os objetivos, as delimitações do trabalho e, brevemente, a metodologia adotada. Revisão de Bibliografia: Neste capítulo apresenta-se a metodologia de desenvolvimento de produtos conhecida por modelo PRODIP (BACK et al.,2008). Todas as etapas e características são discutidas e criticadas em relação ao trabalho que se almeja desenvolver. Metodologias de projeto de mecanismos também são apresentadas focando-se nos trabalhos de Yan (1999) e Tsai (2000). Além disso, discute-se a respeito da metodologia proposta por Murai (2013), a qual foi desenvolvida junto ao Laboratório de Robótica da UFSC e tem se mostrado muito importante para o desenvolvimento de novos mecanismos. Por último, uma metodologia de pesquisa de patentes também é apresentada. Esta metodologia também foi desenvolvida junto ao Laboratório de Robótica da UFSC e está de acordo com os escritórios internacionais de patentes. Juntamente à metodologia de busca de patentes, encontra-se uma breve explicação sobre a estrutura de uma patente e características gerais de uma pesquisa de patentes. Motores de Taxa de Compressão Variável: O terceiro capítulo é dedicado ao levantamento de estado da arte dos motores VCR. Primeiramente mostra-se uma classificação de motores reconfiguráveis e o enquadramentos dos motores VCR nessa classificação. Então, aborda-se a literatura (livros e artigos) para investigar testes experimentais e simulações a respeito do tema além de classificações anteriores deste tipo de motor. O levantamento de estado da arte continua analisando produtos lançados no mercado e as principais empresas por trás desta tecnologia. Por último os resultados da pesquisa de patentes são mostrados. Foram analisadas 1163 patentes resultando em 127 conceitos diferentes de motores VCR. Baseando-se nesta pesquisa e a comparando com outros autores, este trabalho propõe uma nova classificação para os motores VCR, os quais podem ser divididos em 7 grandes classes. As cadeias cinemáticas de todas as classes de motores VCR são analisadas com o objetivo de investigar suas respectivas características estruturais e funcionais. Além disso, a reconfigurabilidade em motores VCR é discutida. Desenvolvimento de Motores VCR: No quarto capítulo são definidos os requisitos estruturais e funcionais por meio do levantamento do estado da arte e por comparação com os trabalhos de Freudenstein and Maki (1983) e Tsai (2000). Os requisitos são então utilizados para enumerar e selecionar cadeias cinemáticas com potencial de se desenvolver motores de taxa de compressão variável. Por fim, discute-se o potencial para inovação destes motores. Estudos de Caso: Neste capítulo, três cadeias cinemáticas em potencial definidas no capítulo anterior são estudadas com o objetivo de exemplificar o desenvolvimento de novos motores VCR de acordo com a abordagem sistemática do Laboratório de Robótica da UFSC.
Abstract : The variable compression ratio (VCR) engine has become an opportunity to overcome the new consumption and emissions laws. Researchers believe that the VCR engine can unite both efficiency and performance. This research aims to investigate the opportunity of further developments within the VCR field. In order to accomplish that, a review of design methodology is provided. First an overview of product development methodology is presented focusing on the PRODIP Model (BACK et al., 2008). Then, it is discussed the mechanism design methodologies such as Yan (1999) and Tsai (2000). Also, the methodology proposed by Murai (2013) is applied. In addition, a patent survey methodology is provided. A state of the art survey analysed the information available in the literature, the market and the patents database. The patent survey was conducted analysing 1163 patents and resulting in 127 different VCR engine designs. Based on that survey and comparing with several authors, this research proposes an enhanced classification of the VCR engines, which contains 7 major classes. The kinematic chains from all classes of VCR engines are analysed in order to investigate the structural and functional characteristics which are compared with previous works from Freudenstein and Maki (1983) and Tsai (2000). This information is used to discuss the reconfigurability of VCR engines, to define the proper design requirements and to generate new potential kinematic chains for innovative designs of VCR engines. At last, three case studies are presented with the objective of exemplifying the development of novel VCR engines using the UFSC Robotics Lab systematic approach.

Pełny tekst źródłaIn a polynomial ring in n variables A\n=A[y1\tryn] with coefficients in a commutative ring A, a polynomial p=p(y1\tryn) is called a variable or an A-variable if there exists an (A-)automorphism α of A\n such that p=α(y1). In this thesis we give a quite general construction of variables of A\n conjugating automorphisms of A\n with automorphisms of (\QuotA)\n. We define residual variables which refer to polynomials that are variables modulo \Max for every maximal ideal \Max of A; in particular, when A=\C\x=\C[x1\trxk], one says \xb-residual variables. Of course, variables are residual variables, but what about the inverse implication? Using a Daigle and Freudenburg's result, we show that \xb-residual variables of \C\x[y,z] are actually \xb-variables. Variables naturally appear in Abhyankar-Sathaye's embedding problem. A polynomial p in A\n is called an (A-)hyperplane if the quotient of A\n by the principal ideal (p) generated by p is isomorphic to A[n−1]. Variables are hyperplanes and the problem consists in studying the inverse implication. In an article, written jointly with M. Kaliman and M. Zaidenberg and which is the last part of this thesis, we study hyperplanes of \C[x,y,z,u] of the form p=f(x,y)u+g(x,y,z). Up to a change of the variables x and y we show that those hyperplanes are also x-residual variables. Moreover we prove that they are x-planes of \Cx[y,z,u] and, that there exists an automorphism α of A[y,z,u,v] such that α((p,v))=(y,v). In some cases, for example when g has degree one in z, we manage to prove that they are x-variables. We also give a generalization of Wright's theorem showing that an x-plane of the form f(x,y,z)un+g(x,y,z), where n≥2, is an x-variable. However the problem remains unsolved when we consider, for instance, the polynomial y+x[xz+y(yu+z2)] which, although being an x-plane and an x-residual variable, does not seem to be an x-variable

Pełny tekst źródłaIn this thesis, we propose the STREE methodology for the construction of decision trees with symbolic data. This data type allows us to characterize individuals of higher levels which may be classes or categories of individuals or concepts within the meaning of the Galois lattice. The values of the variables, called symbolic variables, may be sets, intervals or histograms. The criterion of recursive partitioning is a combination of a criterion related to the explanatory variables and a criterion related to the dependant variable. The first criterion is the variation of the variance of the explanatory variables. When it is applied alone, STREE acts as a top-down clustering methodology. The second criterion enables us to build a decision tree. This criteron is expressed as the variation of the Gini index if the dependant variable is nominal, and as the variation of the variance if thedependant variable is continuous or is a symbolic variable. Conventional data are a special case of symbolic data on which STREE can also get good results. It has performed well on multiple sets of UCI data compared to conventional methodologies of Data Mining such as CART, C4.5, Naive Bayes, KNN, MLP and SVM. The STREE methodology also allows for the construction of ensembles of symbolic decision trees either by bagging or by boosting. The use of such ensembles is designed to overcome shortcomings related to the decisions trees themselves and to obtain a finaldecision that is in principle more reliable than that obtained from a single tree

Pełny tekst źródłaDuring the last decades, the amount of available genetic data on populations has growndrastically. From one side, a refinement of chemical technologies have made possible theextraction of the human genome of individuals at an accessible cost. From the other side,consortia of institutions and laboratories around the world have permitted the collectionof data on a variety of individuals and population. This amount of data raised hope onour ability to understand the deepest mechanisms involved in the functioning of our cells.Notably, genetic epidemiology is a field that studies the relation between the geneticfeatures and the onset of a disease. Specific statistical methods have been necessary forthose analyses, especially due to the dimensions of available data: in genetics, informationis contained in a high number of variables compared to the number of observations.In this dissertation, two contributions are presented. The first project called PIGE (Pathway-Interaction Gene Environment) deals with gene-environment interaction assessments.The second one aims at developing variable selection methods for data which has groupstructures in both the variables and the observations.The document is divided into six chapters. The first chapter sets the background of this work,where both biological and mathematical notations and concepts are presented and gives ahistory of the motivation behind genetics and genetic epidemiology. The second chapterpresent an overview of the statistical methods currently in use for genetic epidemiology.The third chapter deals with the identification of gene-environment interactions. It includesa presentation of existing approaches for this problem and a contribution of the thesis. Thefourth chapter brings off the problem of meta-analysis. A definition of the problem and anoverview of the existing approaches are presented. Then, a new approach is introduced.The fifth chapter explains the pleiotropy studies and how the method presented in theprevious chapter is suited for this kind of analysis. The last chapter compiles conclusionsand research lines for the future

Introduïm tres diferents aproximacions als Sistemes de Retribució Variable. La primera és una aproximació des del punt de vista de l’empresa i el sector, en el cas d’Espanya, utilitzant una metodologia qualitativa i analitzant la competitivitat, la productivitat, els costos laborals unitaris i els convenis col.lectius. La segona és una aproximació des del punt de vista de la negociació col.lectiva i de país, en el cas d’alguns països europeus i utilitzant una metodologia quantitativa . La tercera és una aproximació des del punt de vista de la determinació salarial i la desigualtat salarial a nivell de país, en el cas d’alguns països europeus i utilitzant una metodologia quantitativa. S’utilitza un punt de vista multidisciplinar, combinant elements de Relacions Laborals amb elements d’Economia Laboral. La determinació salarial és un lloc comú en la literatura de l’Economia Laboral, però considerant els salaris com una “caixa negra”, sense tenir en compte cap desglós com les formes de remuneració variables. Les Relacions Laborals analitzen els factors que estan determinant els Sistemes de Retribució Variable sense el seu impacte en la determinació salarial i en la desigualtat salarial. Alguna literatura justifica la introducció de Sistemes de Retribució Variable amb la millora en la motivació dels treballadors, considerant que aquest fet implicarà una millora en el nivell de productivitat. Però la nostra pregunta general de recerca és si hi ha d’altres factors que estan explicant la utilització dels Sistemes de Retribució Variable i si hi ha d’altres implicacions que se’n deriven. Aquesta tesi està dividida en quatre capítols diferents. En el capítol 1 oferim una revisió de la literatura sobre la definició i la classificació dels esquemes de retribució variable. D’una banda, els Sistemes de Retribució Variable estarien relacionats amb la globalització i amb les seves conseqüències i amb la darrera crisi econòmica, en termes de diferents elements com la recerca de millores en la competitivitat per part de les empreses i la financialització; per tant, serien una conseqüència dels canvis en el marc econòmic general de l’economia mundial. I, d’altra banda, els Sistemes de Retribució Variables serien la causa de la millora en la motivació dels treballadors, en la productivitat i en la competitivitat de les empreses. En el capítol 2, fem una anàlisi dels Sistemes de Retribució Variable en el cas de nou companyies del sector de l’automoció a Espanya. Combinem informació provinent d’entrevistes i dels textos legals dels convenis col.lectius amb informació econòmica de les empreses, provinent de la base de dades Sabi. Utilitzant una metodologia qualitativa, la conclusió principal és que la introducció de Sistemes de Retribució Variable es deuria més a les estratègies de les empreses multinacionals buscant nivells de competitivitat superiors (costos laborals unitaris decreixents) que a una estratègia de recerca d’una millora en la motivació dels treballadors. En el capítol 3, analitzem la connexió entre els Sistemes de Retribució Variable i els règims de negociació col.lectiva. Utilitzem tres onades (2002, 2006 i 2010) de la Enquesta d’Estructura Salarial i hem triat sis països diferents (Finlàndia, Espanya, Portugal, França, Romania i Polònia) amb dades disponibles i amb diferents règims de negociació col.lectiva. Com a “proxy” dels Sistemes de Retribució Variable utilitzem els Bonus anuals i el seu desglòs entre Regular bonus, Bonus de la productivitat i les primes de Participació en els beneficis. Nosaltres avaluem la probabilitat de guanyar un bonus (com a variable depenent) i si aquesta probabilitat segueix algun tipus de patró relacionat amb els règims de negociació col.lectiva. La nostra conclusió principal és que a mesura que els règims de negociació col.lectiva esdevenen molt més descentralitzats, els bonus depenen d’un conjunt de variables (estadísticament significatives) més gran, perquè en aquestes situacions no estan inclosos en els convenis col.lectius; així, els bonus esdevenen molt més variables. En el capítol 4, prenem les mateixes tres onades de l’Enquesta d’Estructura Salarial per a analitzar les variables més rellevants en la determinació salarial, mitjançant una regressió amb Mínims Quadrats Ordinaris aplicats a una equació salarial Minceriana que inclou una “proxy” dels Sistemes de Retribució Variable (com a variable independent). Utilitzem una descomposició de la variança salarial a través de la diferència del coeficient R2, amb l’objectiu de veure quina és la contribució dels bonus a la variança salarial. A més a més, introduïm la descomposició de Fields per a avaluar quina és la contribució dels bonus a la desigualtat salarial. Una conclusió és que els països amb alts nivells de decentralització en la negociació col.lectiva són països amb un percentatge més alt en l’explicació de la variança salarial a través dels Bonus de productivitat i de la prima de Participació en els beneficis. I, una altra conclusió, és que els països en els quals els bonus estan explicant la part més important de la variança salarial són els mateixos països en els quals els bonus tenen la incidència més gran en la desigualtat salarial, mitjançant la descomposició de Fields. L’any 2010 aquests països van ser Espanya, Portugal i Romania.

Pełny tekst źródłaActualmente la mayoría de índices de confort que se utilizan son de tipo cuantitativo y sin variabilidad temporal, horaria, diaria y estacional. Desde principios de la década de los ochentas algunos autores han expuesto sus reflexiones sobre la necesidad de incorporar las variantes cualitativas y de variabilidad temporal en los índices de confort. Por lo que este trabajo abordará un tema que esta por definirse y que se discute y se investiga actualmente.
La hipótesis que se plantea en este trabajo es la siguiente: el ambiente térmico dentro de un espacio arquitectónico debe tener variaciones temporales y espaciales parecidas, aunque en diferente escala, a las que se dan en el ambiente exterior. Esto para no generar estrés térmico por una exposición a condiciones demasiado estáticas, evitar contrastes térmicos excesivos entre el interior y el exterior y no perder la capacidad de adaptación o la tolerancia a los cambios en el ambiente. Además de que nuestra percepción del espacio y del tiempo se basa en buena parte en la percepción de los cambios de los estímulos.
Para lo que es necesario un modelo de confort térmico que tome en cuenta las condiciones térmicas del exterior junto con todos los fenómenos y características del edificio y del usuario relacionados con el ambiente térmico.
Con la consecuencia directa de que al ser menores las exigencias de acondicionamiento, esto representaría un ahorro de energía por este concepto en el mantenimiento y uso de los edificios.
El objetivo central de este trabajo es sustentar teóricamente la hipótesis planteada, es decir, la necesidad y conveniencia de la variabilidad del ambiente térmico dentro de lo edificios, teniendo como principal referencia la oscilación de la temperatura exterior del aire, como principal indicador del clima exterior, además la circunstancias fisiológicas, físicas e incluso psicológicas del ocupante y algunas de las características del edificio.
Un segundo objetivo es, realizar el planteamiento teórico de un modelo de confort térmico que integre el mayor número posible de las condicionantes del confort térmico, estas condicionantes serán las características del ambiente exterior, las condiciones particulares de los ocupantes y las características del edificio que tengan una influencia directa en ambiente térmico y en la percepción de éste por el ocupante.
Y el tercer objetivo es, diseñar una herramienta informática que permita comprobar de una manera ágil el comportamiento de éste al modificar las variantes que lo integran y sus valores y que a su vez permita aplicar el modelo de confort térmico a la evaluación del ambiente térmico en los edificios.
Las conclusiones centrales de este trabajo son sobre la variabilidad del ambiente térmico, de la que mediante el estudio realizado sobre del entorno térmico en la Sala de Ordenadores de la E.T.S.A.B. se observó lo siguiente, primero, que la oscilación de las componentes del entorno térmico: temperatura del aire, temperatura radiante, humedad relativa y velocidad del aire; existe en este tipo de espacios aún cuando no se desean.
Por otra parte, pudo observarse que la aplicación de sistemas mecánicos de acondicionamiento ambiental no garantiza la obtención de un ambiente que ofrezca confort térmico a los ocupantes, siendo éste un entorno controlado, en el que la variación de sus componentes son mínimas y que se encuentran dentro de lo que se considera confort térmico.

One of the motives of this work is to make a reflection on the current concept of "comfort in the architecture", on the dominant direction that in this sense the contemporary designers have taken and on the social implications and of energy consumption.
At the moment most of indexes of comfort that are used are of quantitative type and without temporary variability, horary, daily and seasonal. From principles of the decade of the 80 some authors have exposed their reflections about the necessity of incorporating the qualitative variants and of temporary variability in the indexes of comfort. For what this work will approach a topic that this to be defined and that you discusses and it is investigated at the moment.
The hypothesis that thinks about in this work is the following one: the thermal environment inside an architectural space should have similar temporary and space variations, although in different scale, to those that are given in the external environment. This for not generating thermal stress for an exhibition to too static conditions, to avoid excessive thermal contrasts between the interior and the external one and not to lose the capacity of adaptation or the tolerance to the changes in the environment. Besides that our perception of the space and of the time it is based on good part in
the perception of the changes of the stimuli.
For what is necessary a model of thermal comfort that takes into account the thermal conditions of the exterior together with all the phenomena and characteristic of the building and of the user related with the thermal environment.
With the direct consequence that to the smallest being the environment demands, this would represent an energy saving for this concept in the maintenance and use of the buildings.
The central objective of this work is to sustain the outlined hypothesis theoretically, that is to say, the necessity and convenience of the variability of the thermal environment inside the buildings, having as main reference the oscillation of the external temperature of the air, as main indicator of the external climate, moreover the physiologic circumstances, physical and even psychological of the occupant and some of the characteristics of the building.
A second objective is, to carry out the theoretical position of a model of thermal comfort that integrates the biggest number possible of the conditions of the thermal comfort, these conditions will be the characteristics of the external environment, the conditions peculiar of the occupants and the characteristics of the building that have a direct influence in thermal atmosphere and in the perception of this for the occupant.
And the third objective is, to design a computer tool that allows to check in an agile way the behavior from this when modifying the variants that integrate it and its values and that in turn it allows to apply model el of thermal comfort to the evaluation of the thermal environment in the buildings.
The conclusions centrals of this work are about the variability of the thermal environment, of the one that by means of the study carried out on of the thermal environment in the Room of Computers of the E.T.S.A.B. the following, first was observed that the oscillation of the components of the thermal environment: temperature of the air, radiant temperature, relative humidity and speed of the air; it still exists in this type of spaces when they are not wanted.
On the other hand, it could be observed that the application of mechanical conditioning systems of environment doesn't guarantee the obtaining of an environment that offers thermal comfort to the occupants, being this a controlled environment, in which the variation of its components is minimum and that they are inside what is considered thermal comfort.
