OBS

The International Geographical Union(IGU) is an international scientific union which was established in 1923. [...] One of the foremost objectives of any scientific union is communication between fellow scientists, and especially the dissemination of knowledge or recent developments in its field of interest. To foster such communication, the union creates commissions whose work can focus on specific areas of concern. One such body, the IGU Commission on Geographical Data Sensing and Processing, was established in 1968.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Titles of Periodicals
  • Urban Housing
OBS

Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. Estimating the remaining service life span, or time-to-fogging, of insulating glass units(IGU's) can pose a planning and budgeting problem for building managers and condominium corporations. This research report describes a method for predicting the time-to-failure of IGU's, and suggests ways of improving the predictability of IGU failure. The method entails measuring dew-point temperatures for a sample of identical units; after three sets of measurements are gathered, a time-to-fogging prediction is obtained using a mathematical forecasting model.

OBS

Société canadienne d'hypothèques et de logement. Prévoir le moment inévitable où il faudra réparer ou remplacer les vitrages isolants est un défi de taille pour les gérants d'immeubles et les sociétés de condominium. La recherche dont il est ici question avait pour but de consigner des données sur la façon dont se produisent habituellement les défaillances des vitrages isolants et de suggérer des moyens d'aider les gérants d'immeubles à prévoir ces défaillances et à planifier les travaux de remplacement. Une méthode de prévision du moment de l'embuage des vitrages isolants installés dans des immeubles similaires; après au moins trois jeux de mesures des températures du point de rosée, une prévision du moment de l'embuage est obtenu selon une méthode de prévision mathématique.
