Photovoltaic (PV) hybrid systems can make a positive contribution to the sustainability of rural communities in developing countries that do not have access to electricity grid. Integration of solar photovoltaic system with diesel generator for remote and rural areas would assist in expanding...

We report our results on the effect of incorporation of inorganic fullerene like nanoparticles (IF) and inorganic nanotubes (INT) of WS<Subscript>2</Subscript> into hybrid LED device structures. To disperse into a uniform fashion, the semiconducting INT/IF WS<Subscript>2</Subscript> NTs were functionalized with SDS (sodium dodecylsulphate)....</subscript></subscript>

Rainfall is one of the most significant parameters in a hydrological model. Several models have been developed to analyze and predict the rainfall forecast. In recent years, wavelet techniques have been widely applied to various water resources research because of their time-frequency...

Reduction of greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions throughout the building lifecycle and climate vulnerability have recently become important environmental concerns in the development of low income housing. To address these concerns, several sustainability assessment tools have been developed to...

Dry anaerobic digestion (DAD) is an attractive method for the stabilization of solid organic waste with high solid concentration (22–40%). This article provides different aspects for bio-energy production through dry anaerobic digestion suggested by different researchers. Basic fundamental...

Urban development traditionally takes different physical and spatial forms. Taking development control and geographical location as common denominators, there are among others, three generic urban development forms in the cities of developing countries, namely controlled residential cum...
