Abstract This paper presents a variation focused cluster analysis strategy to identify typical daily heating energy usage profiles of higher education buildings. Different from the existing cluster analysis studies which were primarily developed using Euclidean distance as the dissimilarity measure and tended to group the daily load profiles with ...

Stressful life events are associated with low secretion rates of immunoglobulin A in saliva in the middle aged and elderly [PDF]
Whether chronic stress experience is related to down-regulation of secretory immunoglobulin A (S-IgA) was tested in two substantial cohorts, one middle-aged (N = 640) and one elderly (N = 582), comprising similar numbers of men (N = 556) and women (N ...

Effects of daily variation of flow on the performance of submerged anaerobic/aerobic biofilm systems were investigated both by laboratory study using synthetic wastewater and by field study using gray water. In laboratory study, concentration of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in effluent from anaerobic filter fluctuated with daily variation of flow ...

Quantifying temporal and spatial variations in sediment, nitrogen and phosphorus transport in stream inflows to a large eutrophic lake [PDF]
High-frequency sampling of two major stream inflows to a large eutrophic lake (Lake Rotorua, New Zealand) was conducted to measure inputs of total suspended sediment (TSS), and fractions of nitrogen and phosphorus (P).

Energy Production Analysis and Optimization of Mini-Grid in Remote Areas: The Case Study of Habaswein, Kenya [PDF]
Rural electrification in remote areas of developing countries has several challenges which hinder energy access to the population. For instance, the extension of the national grid to provide electricity in these areas is largely not viable.

Dynamic Characteristics of Suspended Load and Bed Load Transport in Meltwater Runoff of Qiyi Glacier
[Objective] The transportation of sediment via glacial meltwater can not only reflect the glacial erosion and landform evolution, but also is one of the important sediment sources for the downstream river.
