Comparing energy and comfort metrics for building benchmarking [PDF]
Benchmarking energy use is increasingly mandated and tied to consequences such as fines for underperforming buildings. Yet, standard benchmarking methods and metrics may not adequately align with policymakers’ or building owners’ goals.

Submodularity of energy related controllability metrics [PDF]
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.

Human well‐being and per capita energy use
Increased wealth and per capita energy use have transformed lives and shaped societies, but energy poverty remains a global challenge. Previous research has shown positive relationships among metrics of health and happiness and economic indices such as ...

Thresholds of energy security metrics: their purpose and assessment techniques [PDF]
The study discusses the issue of enhancing the validity of projections of energy sector development by properly accounting for the effect of available options on energy security. To this end, it is possible to use a single overall index that measures the

THE ENERGY OF THE GAMMA METRIC IN THE MØLLER PRESCRIPTION [PDF]
We obtain the energy distribution of the gamma metric using the energy–momentum complex of Møller. The result is the same as that obtained by Virbhadra in the Weinberg prescription.
