Smart Charging With Hourly Pricing as Policy Intervention: Reducing Costs and Grid Congestion for Promoting Electric Vehicles in Developing Countries

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Smart charging with hourly pricing optimizes electric vehicle (EV) charging in developing countries, reducing EV owner costs by 30% and easing grid congestion. Using an agent‐based energy management system, the study shows dynamic pricing effectively shifts charging to off‐peak hours, enhancing grid stability and supporting sustainable EV adoption in ...

A Closed‐Loop Human Resource Management Framework for Energy Efficiency: Integrating Predictive Optimization With Behavioral Implementation

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The proposed framework operates as a continuous cycle: organizational data streams feed into predictive optimization, which generates energy efficiency targets. These targets are translated into behavioral directives through human resource management mechanisms.

Evaluating the effect of two different training interventions on improving vaginal twin birth rates and provider confidence and knowledge levels: A pre‐ and post‐intervention study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Despite the increasing trend in cesarean section rates in multiple pregnancies, vaginal delivery in twin pregnancies appears both possible and safe. Methods This retrospective multicenter study compared outcomes before and after the implementation of a vaginal twin intervention in two Italian hospitals. In January 2021 in Pescara and

Machine Learning‐Based Estimation of Reference Evapotranspiration and Crop Coefficients for Wheat Under Diverse Climatic Conditions

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate estimation of reference evapotranspiration (ET0) and crop coefficients (Kc) is critical for irrigation planning, particularly in data‐limited regions where agriculture dominates freshwater consumption. Although machine learning (ML) methods have been widely applied to ET0 and Kc estimation, most studies address these parameters ...

Optimizing Daylight Simulation for Speed and Accuracy

, 2003
A study by Reinhart and Herkel showed that long-term predictions of daylight availability in architectural spaces should take the daylight conditions of all individual time steps into account. However, most contemporary simulation tools and algorithms require such long computation times that it is impractical or even unrealistic to perform a simulation

Variability of the Climate in Athens‐Greece Over the Last 165 Years of the Period 1858–2023: An Assessment Based on Thornthwaite's Climate Classification and Relevant Indices

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Athens' climate according to Thorthwaite is stable despite warming trends. Athens' climate remains semi‐arid and mesothermal over 165 years. Strong increases in evapotranspiration and stable precipitation were found. Soil water storage capacity affects water deficits but not aridity type.
