However, optimizing the deposition process to generate high-quality CdTe devices remains a challenge since deposition factors such as pressure have a substantial impact on the structural, optical, and electrical properties of the films, eventually influencing device performance. This study explores the effects of deposition pressure during the Close-Spaced Sublimation (CSS) process on the structural, morphological, optical and electrical characteristics of CdTe thin films, with an emphasis on pressures ranging from 1 to 10 Torr. High-quality CdTe films with large grain sizes (∼3 µm), cubic (111) preferential crystallite orientation, low dislocation density, and decreased strain are grown at deposition pressures ranging from 1.5 to 2 Torr, according to structural studies. These properties are appropriate for producing high-performance p-type CdTe absorber layers for solar cells. The optimized films has a band gap of 1.49 eV, a Voc of 0.64 V, a Jsc of over 18 mA/cm², and solar cell efficiencies above 5 % under normal AM1.5 conditions. Films deposited at higher pressures (≥5 Torr) exhibit poor electrical performance, including poorer carrier mobility, higher recombination losses, and low Jsc due to carrier dispersion and grain boundary defects. This work emphasizes the importance of deposition pressure in managing the balance of crystallinity, grain size, and carrier concentration, all of which are required for optimal solar cell performance. The findings present a systematic approach for optimizing CSS deposition parameters in order to achieve higher-efficiency CdTe thin-film solar cells. Furthermore, this study provides the groundwork for future research focusing on pressure-dependent manufacturing processes and post-deposition treatments to increase the efficiency, stability, and scalability of CdTe-based solar cells.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48648,"journal":{"name":"Ain Shams Engineering Journal","volume":"16 2","pages":"Article 103255"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143177841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its design may impact gender equality by either facilitating or hindering equal access to public amenities for both men and women. The entrenched constraints on equal opportunities for women in establishing social activities, particularly in ideologically traditional developing countries like Iran, create observable disparities in the usage of public amenities. This research aimed to develop a comprehensive framework fostering equal opportunities for both men and women in static social activities around street furniture. To achieve this, the research employed a mixed-methods approach. The study combined empirical field observations, space syntax analysis, and interviews with users of public spaces. The space syntax analysis was used to evaluate spatial integration and connectivity, while interviews provided qualitative insights into how men and women interact with urban furniture. Observational data helped identify patterns in the use of street furniture by different genders. The results indicated that street furniture positively influences the social logic of space by enhancing spatial integration and connectivity, thus improving overall accessibility to public spaces for social activities. However, a significant gender imbalance was observed, with men predominantly using street furniture more frequently than women. This disparity highlights conflicting perspectives on gender equality in public space usage. The findings suggest that achieving a more equitable gender distribution in public spaces requires designing street furniture that reduces visual integration and connection while increasing the visual clustering coefficient and entropy, thereby creating more inclusive environments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48648,"journal":{"name":"Ain Shams Engineering Journal","volume":"16 2","pages":"Article 103250"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143178048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed method simplifies the global optimization problem into multiple sub–optimal problems by virtually segregating each GFM source into two decoupled sources. Each sub–problem, containing at most two GFM sources and multiple GFL sources with a single distributed agent, is solvable independently using local and neighboring node information. This feature substantially minimizes computational and communication resources, allowing for solutions using low–cost digital signal processors (DSPs). Moreover, the highly distributed nature of the proposed search algorithm ensures fast solution convergence and real–time implementation in multi–agent systems (MAS).

This can prevent designers and users, especially in extreme climates, from serious consequences such as external environmental discomfort and increased energy consumption outside and inside the buildings. The review of related studies reveals that there is limited data concerning the reciprocal relationship between canyon geometry parameters and the thermal comfort in a hot semi-arid climate. Accordingly, the paper seeks to provide the required knowledge concerning this aspect by testing and comparing the effect of canyon geometry parameters on some outdoor thermal indexes, using ENVI-met microclimate simulation software. The selected indexes of the outdoor thermal comfort include physiological equivalent temperature (PET), and façade temperature (Tf). The effect of modifying canyon aspect ratio (high and low), and orientation (north–south, east–west, northeast-southwest, and northwest-southeast) on these indexes have been tracked. The paper investigates the aspect ratio effect on PET, the orientation effect on PET, and the aspect ratio effect on Tf. The research concluded that the deep canyon (Dc) witnessed lower PET values than the wide canyon (Wc) during the daytime. East-west oriented canyons are excluded from this result as no significant effect on PET was recorded. The most noticeable difference (about 12.8 °C) was recorded at 8:00 between NE-SW deep and wide canyons. During the night hours, the opposite case happens as PET in (Wc) becomes lower than (Dc) in all orientations. Measuring the second parameter reveals the minimal effect of canyon orientation on PET in wide canyons (Wc). Deep canyons witness more obvious thermal differences. The lowest and highest PET values were recorded in NE-SW and EW-oriented deep canyons (differences about 15 °C at 8:00). Concerning the effect of aspect ratio on facade temperature (Tf), the results reveal that increasing the aspect ratio (Dc) can significantly decline this parameter. The most significant role of this at PET was recorded at the southeast façade of deep canons (Dc) which was about 30 °C lower than those of Wc in the late morning. Adopting such results in the urban planning and design process would lead to have more sustainable canyons which successfully interact with their local environment and professionally avoid its disadvantages.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48648,"journal":{"name":"Ain Shams Engineering Journal","volume":"16 2","pages":"Article 103247"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143177017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
