Integrating Remote Sensing and Machine Learning for Enhanced Surface Urban Heat Island Analysis and Its Impact on Building Energy Demand

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Satellite (MODIS) mapping links Urban Heat Island (UHI) intensity to city‐scale energy demand—higher daytime cooling demand and altered nighttime heating demand—supporting targeted mitigation and planning. ABSTRACT This study examines the surface urban heat island (SUHI) effect on building energy consumption in Tehran from 1998 to 2024, utilizing MODIS

Optimization of Energy Efficiency in Photovoltaic Water Pumping Systems Using Neural Networks

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates an optimal control strategy for a photovoltaic (PV) water pumping system aimed at improving efficiency and autonomy in off‐grid applications. The system uses an induction motor with direct torque control and compares three maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques: neural network–based MPPT, Incremental Conductance (IC ...

Renewable Energy Use, Agricultural Productivity, and Economic Expansion Impact on Environmental Sustainability in India

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research aims to explore the effects of agricultural productivity and the use of renewable energy sources on India's CO2 emissions while taking economic expansion into concern based on data during 1985–2022. This study applies the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) technique, dynamic‐ordinary least square (DOLS), fully‐modified ...

Physicochemical Properties and Antioxidant Activity of Apocynum Honey in Different Regions of Xinjiang

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, honey produced from Apocynum venetum L. was collected from BC (Bachu County), SY (Shaya County), and YL (Yuli County) in Xinjiang. The basic physical and chemical properties of the honey, and the contents of total phenols, total flavonoids, and amino acids were analyzed, and 16 types of polyphenols were quantified using triple ...
