Streamlining the regionalization of economy-wide material flow accounts (EW-MFA): The case of swiss cantons

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Aristide Henri Roger Athanassiadis

Current levels of resource use and pollution emissions are responsible for the trespassing of most planetary boundaries. As such, operational and contextual analysis is needed to provide mitigation strategies and policies. This article aims to streamline E ...

Analysis-aware defeaturing of complex geometries

Pablo Antolin Sanchez, Ondine Gabrielle Chanon

Local modifications of a computational domain are often performed in order to simplify the meshing process and to reduce computational costs and memory requirements. However, removing geometrical features of a domain often introduces a non-negligible error ...

Optimal Allocation of ESSs in Active Distribution Networks to achieve their Dispatchability

Mario Paolone, Sidi-Rachid Cherkaoui, Ji Hyun Yi

This paper presents a method for the optimal siting and sizing of energy storage systems (ESSs) in active distribution networks (ADNs) to achieve their dispatchability. The problem formulation accounts for the uncertainty inherent to the stochastic nature ...

Finite-size corrections of defect energy levels involving ionic polarization

Alfredo Pasquarello, Julia Anna Wiktor, Stefano Falletta

We develop a scheme for finite-size corrections of vertical transition energies and single-particle energy levels involving defect states with built-in ionic polarization in supercell calculations. The method accounts on an equal footing for the screening ...

Data assimilation of in situ and satellite remote sensing data to 3D hydrodynamic lake models: a case study using Delft3D-FLOW v4.03 and OpenDA v2.4

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Theo Baracchini

The understanding of physical dynamics is crucial to provide scientifically credible information on lake ecosystem management. We show how the combination of in situ observations, remote sensing data, and three-dimensional hydrodynamic (3D) numerical simul ...

Restoration of ancient Chinese opera spiral wooden domes, accounts of field practice

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jingxian Ye

The zaojing is a wooden construction system that covers opera stages for rain protection and sound control. Zaojings in China display a diverse range of geometric expressions, delicate manufacturing, structural behaviours, and acoustic qualities. Despite t ...

Quantifying the Benefits of Labor Mobility in a Currency Union

Unemployment differentials are bigger in Europe than in the United States. Migration responds to unemployment differentials, though the response is smaller in Europe. Mundell (1961) argued that factor mobility is a precondition for a successful currency un ...

Structure of a dense release produced by varying initial conditions

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Jessica Zordan

Buoyancy driven flows such as gravity currents, present in nature and human made applications, are conveyors of particles or dissolved substances for long distances with clear implications for the environment. This transport depends on the triggering condi ...

An assessment of how well we account for intangibles

Gaétan Jean A de Rassenfosse

Estimates of intangible capital stock are of prime importance for accurate measurement of productivity growth. Aggregate intangible capital stock is usually estimated using the so-called Corrado-Hulten-Sichel (CHS) new growth accounting framework. Yet this ...

Phase Bifurcation and Zero Reflection in Planar Plasmonic Metasurfaces

Olivier Martin, Chen Yan

We introduce a general formalism combining the coupled oscillator model with the transfer matrix method to analyze and engineer the phase of the light reflected from a Fano-resonant metasurface. This method accounts for periodicity and the presence of subs ...

Signal-Adapted Tight Frames on Graphs

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Hamid Behjat

The analysis of signals on complex topologies modeled by graphs is a topic of increasing importance. Decompositions play a crucial role in the representation and processing of such information. Here, we propose a new tight frame design that is adapted to a ...
