Abstract This study utilizes Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) to examine subsidence along the coastal strip of Miami barrier islands from 2016 2023. Using Sentinel‐1 data, we document vertical displacements ranging 2 8 cm, affecting a total 35 buildings and their vicinity. About half subsiding structures are younger than 2014 at majority them decays with time. correlation suggests that is related construction activities. In northern central Sunny Isles Beach, where 23% were...
Airflow measurements are not as accurate needed in air-handling units due to space and cost limitations of physical meters. Generally, the airflow an unit is propelled by a fan driven motor and, hence, rate related fan-motor system performance, which can be affected other measurable variables, such head power. Theoretically, virtual meter developed virtually obtain from measured power along with projected efficiency models. Because variable frequency drives have been widely installed HVAC...

Water flow rates are key controlled variables in chilled and hot water systems. The rate through a pump can be virtually determined using measured head input power. Available power either motor obtained from the connected variable-frequency drive or by meter. harmonics created induce additional energy loss consequently degrade efficiency. objective of this article is to evaluate virtual meter with calibrated pump, efficiencies along consideration harmonic loss. First, correlation available...
Increasing frequency of extreme weather events, driven by climate change, has resulted in an increasing demand for coastal structures to protect and stabilize shorelines. Concrete seawalls are a common category protection structures, designed with the primary objectives absorbing wave action, preventing coastline erosion, alleviating flooding. Much research been carried out on improving seawall performance. This work is review current state-of-the-art concrete focusing design aspects...
Resilience is a key driver for planning adaptation strategies to mitigate risks due both natural and anthropogenic hazards. The effectiveness of resilience-driven decision-making strategy adapting systems against stressors depends on how resilience mapped decision variables. This requires functional metric, without which it would not be possible identify the priority needs improvement, assess changes, or show improvement in post-adaptation resilience. In this paper, we aim contribute...
