The algorithm mechanically yields a sequence of sets, which converges to the set of all primes p such that 2p + 1 divides the Mersenne number Mp. The cardinal sequence corresponding to the sequence of sets is strictly increasing. So that we have captured enough usable structures, without any estimation, the existing theories of those structures allow us to prove an exact result: there are infinitely many Mersenne composite numbers with prime exponents Mp.展开更多

Reducing energy consumption by making buildings more energy efficient has been touted as an easily attainable approach to promoting carbon-neutral energy societies. Yet, despite significant progress in research and technology development, for new buildings, as energy codes are getting more stringent, more and more technologies, e.g., LED lighting, VRF systems, smart plugs, occupancy-based controls, are used. Nevertheless, the adoption of energy efficient measures in buildings is still limited in the larger context of the developing countries and middle income/low-income population. The objective of Sustainable Human Building Ecosystem Research Coordination Network (SHBE-RCN) is to expand synergistic investigative podium in order to subdue barriers in engineering, architectural design, social and economic perspectives that hinder wider application, adoption and subsequent performance of sustainable building solutions by recognizing the essential role of human behaviors within building-scale ecosystems. Expected long-term outcomes of SHBE-RCN are collaborative ideas for transformative technologies, designs and methods of adoption for future design, construction and operation of sustainable buildings.展开更多
