The measurements were focused on shielding effectiveness while gradually drying out building materials in the range of high frequencies from 1 GHz to 13 GHz. The measured object was fiber cement board facade Eterplan and exterior facade board Natura Pro. Thickness of the boards were 8 mm.

Various types of equipment use It should be noted that the sources of the shielding in various fields of our daily lives. This is electromagnetic field not only negatively affect the human mobile phones, mobile stations, wifi devices to provide body. A well-known example of the beneficial uses of internet through a variety of medical devices, source of electromagnetic radiation at higher frequencies communications networks, electronic devices and so on. This concept closely related with electromagnetic is the thermal hyperthermia which is described in [1]. compatibility. Electromagnetic compatibility could be Wireless communication is not only represented in the defined as the ability of devices to coexist in the same IT sector, but also the constant development in the electromagnetic environment [1] [3]. medical environment requires the use of this type of communication. In the medical field, there are many Quality shielding material are determined by three applications using wireless communication just for coefficients, KS shielding coefficient, absorption capturing and monitoring of the human body, the output coefficient A and a reflection coefficient R. With these data are collected as the human body. three factors closely related to the shielding effectiveness The wireless communication provides long-term SE. Shielding coefficient KS is determined by the electric monitoring activities of the human body even under field strength E, possibly based on the intensity of the severe conditions [2]. magnetic field H by the relation: We are exposed electromagnetic radiation everytime E H and everywhere.

Public spaces, a large part of which corresponds to the urban roadway infrastructure, represent a major stake in both quantitative and qualitative terms. Citizens are requiring more and more services, higher quality and harmonious functioning of the space in which they live and move, and this is translated by public contracting authorities into specifications covering the integration of such services, their durability, safety and, in general, all aspects relating to sustainable development. Many players are involved, including public authorities, occupants of surface and underground areas, operators of different travel modes, engineering firms, industries, professional bodies, various representative committees, etc., so that consistency and coordination become rigorously essential.

Artificial light will never replace natural light. Every day, one must make full use of the potential of daylight and enjoy an advantage—free-of-charge natural light entering the interior. When renovating balconies, people often change the character of this protruding structure from a façade to a loggia. This is also the subject of this paper. For the evaluation of the daylighting conditions prevailing in residential building, the Daylight Factor (DF) was considered as the parameter for indicating the quantity of admitted daylight. The DF values and illuminance—CIE overcast sky were calculated using DIALux 9.1 software. The aim of the paper is to compare two variants of the level of daylight in the rooms of the residential building. One option to bring in even more natural light than a window is a variant with balconies. Loggias are satisfactory in terms of static and thermal Citation: Dolníková, E.; Katunský, D.; technology, but daylight conditions are deteriorating.

As a result of growing awareness about their environment, the public is increasingly demanding to be consulted and listened to before environmental projects in urban areas are implemented. This article sets out one of the five themes being developed by the PIARC Committee on Urban Areas (C10) during the current cycle which culminates in the XXIst World Congress in Kuala Lumpur, 3-9 October 1999. It aims to identify the different ways in which the public can be consulted during the various stages of developing, promoting, planning, designing, constructing and maintaining an environmental project. Richard FRENCH Chairman of the PIARC Committee on Urban Areas (C10) Introduction Urban areas are becoming more congested in a variety of different ways which would never have been imagined in previous centuries. Until industrialization began to re-shape the world, our admittedly smaller populations tended to be more scattered, being significantly based on agricultural and other associated lifestyles.

  • Medieval Perspectives After the Fall
    MEDIEVAL PERSPECTIVES AFTER THE FALL Marianne Sdghy Fifteen years, three-hundred ninety-three MAs one hundred fifty one PhD students, and more than fifty PhD dissertations. Statistically speaking, this is the Medieval Studies Department. Spiritually, however, much more happened in the past decade and a half in our department and in our world. How can we spell this out? When we asked sixteen alumni to tell us about the state of medieval research in their home countries and about the changes and continuities they see around them, we were interested in exploring the destinies of our craft after the fall of communism and in mapping up our alumni's integration in the new world that we are constructing. Their responses offer invigorating perspectives not only about the survival, but happily also about the revival, of medieval scholarship in Central and Eastern Europe. As the Middle Ages are traditionally credited with ethnogenesis, state formation, the creation of national symbols and national monarchies, in the wake of the demolition of the Iron Curtain, when a series of new states emerged in search of legitimacy, the rise of a new interest in the medieval heritage was largely predictable. Redolent of past prestige, the medieval past has been used and abused in the present for purposes of ethnic self-definition and national consciousness. The recognition that the Middle Ages are yet to be "invented" in East Central Europe to serve as a future basis for an open society had contributed to the foundation of our department in 1993. The "explosion" of Late Antiquity, the revision of ideas of decline and fall with respect to the Roman Empire conferred an added interest in the Middle Ages.

Bernstein, Human Rights Watch (HRW) was established as Helsinki Watch (HW). HW’s mission was to monitor the compliance of the former Soviet Union and some other signatories with the human rights provisions of the 1975 Helsinki Final Act. As the organization has grown, it has formed other watch committees to cover other regions of the world. In 1988, all of the committees were united under one organization to form Human Rights Watch. These watch committees -- now called regional divisions --produce research reports on violations of international human rights norms as set out by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other internationally-accepted human rights norms.
