Abstract:Outdoor environment can have significant connections with place relationships. This study tried to explore the connection in detail. First, the relationship was examined through an integrated view of environmental planning, followed by reviewing impacts of essential elements from the outdoor environment on place relationships. Residents of three public housing communities in Taiwan were surveyed. Each community had a different layout: alley, cluster, and large courtyard. Exploratory factor analysis revealed that outdoor community planning features can be grouped into four factors: outdoor space quality, circulation planning, outdoor recreational facilities, and community layout. Canonical correlation analyses indicate different combinations of these factors were connected to diverse combinations of place relationship dimensions. More importantly, higher levels of satisfaction toward outdoor space quality as well as community layout were associated with greater place attachment and less community participation. Higher levels of satisfaction with circulation planning were connected to greater place attachment and community participation, and less social interaction. Multiple regression analyses found the associations between the community planning features and place relationship dimensions differed among the alley, cluster, and large courtyard. These findings can help planners and architects design public housing and similar communities that better enhance the emotional and social experiences of the inhabitants.
Based on data from European and American wind-turbine Industry experience in decades, about 30% efficiency and profits of wind-turbine system are dominated on the fan blades, especially a large number of Modern Composites weaving techniques are already enhanced into manufactured process in composite blades. In this article, we design and experience a 3D measurement as well as scanning system with System Engineering skills in limit time and cost from NSC (only one year), Using this home-made system, we can get the performance of turbine blades very easily and save a lots of time compare with before. In here, we not only show the system engineering skill processes in how to finish the platform but also find the key parameters of wind turbine blade from home-made platform to get the optimal performance finally.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
