In a strict sense, there is nothing passive about removing a surgically implanted feeding tube or extubating a patient undergoing mechanical ventilation.
In this case, modifications involved a regularized structural design and improved ventilation.
Ventilation was required for four days after the operation, after which the pulmonary edema had resolved.
There is no quantitative indication of the advantages of wind breakers, skycourts, fixed shading, double skin facade, and central atrium ventilation.
Other important environmental parameters such as internal and external temperature, atmospheric pressure, and ventilation air speed are also monitored.
The buildings that promised to be cheap and quick to construct also proved to be quick to deteriorate, suffering from poor ventilation and condensation.
Smoke tests and measurements of air velocity indicated that a mild north-easterly wind (0.5 1.5m/s) generated very effective cross ventilation (see section).
The ventilation system was carefully calibrated to accommodate a known number of occupants and a predicted rate of air-change.
