Metrics and Energy Landscapes in Irreversible Thermodynamics [PDF]
Entropy, 2015 We describe how several metrics are possible in thermodynamic state space but that only one, Weinhold’s, has achieved widespread use. Lengths calculated based on this metric have been used to bound dissipation in finite-time (irreversible) processes be ...

Daylight metrics and energy savings [PDF]
Lighting Research & Technology, 2009 The drive towards sustainable, low-energy buildings has increased the need for simple, yet accurate methods to evaluate whether a ‘daylit’ building meets minimum standards for energy and human comfort performance. Current metrics do not account for the temporal and spatial aspects of daylight, nor of occupants comfort or interventions.

Submodularity of energy related controllability metrics [PDF]
53rd IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, 2014 The quantification of controllability and observability has recently received new interest in the context of large, complex networks of dynamical systems. A fundamental but computationally difficult problem is the placement or selection of actuators and sensors that optimize real-valued controllability and observability metrics of the network.
