Net-zero buildings: when carbon and energy metrics diverge
Buildings & Cities, 2020 Many climate change-related building frameworks are designed to improve environmental performance by requiring reduced net energy demand, as it is widely assumed that energy demand ('e.g.' delivered/final, primary, primary non-renewable) is a good proxy ...

TELEPARALLEL GRAVITATIONAL ENERGY IN THE GAMMA METRIC [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics D, 2006 The Møller energy (due to matter and fields including gravity) distribution of the gamma metric is studied in teleparallel gravity. The result is the same as those obtained in general relativity by Virbhadra in the Weinberg complex and Yang–Radincshi in the Møller definition.

Energy functionals and canonical Kähler metrics [PDF]
Duke Mathematical Journal, 2007 Yau conjectured that a Fano manifold admits a Kahler-Einstein metric if and only if it is stable in the sense of geometric invariant theory. There has been much progress on this conjecture by Tian, Donaldson and others. The Mabuchi energy functional plays a central role in these ideas. We study the E_k functionals introduced by X.X. Chen and G.

Energy Efficiency Metrics of University Data Centers
Knowledge Engineering and Data Science, 2018 The data centers are fundamental pieces in the network and computing infrastructure, and evidently today more than ever they are relevant. Since they support the processing, analysis, assurance of the data generated in the network and by the applications

Residential retrofit in the climate emergency: the role of metrics
Buildings & Cities, 2020 This paper examines whether current residential retrofit metrics are fit for purpose and if they can help deliver swift and significant cuts in carbon emissions. Information is presented on metrics used for a variety of UK and European Union building and

Adsorption energy as a metric for wettability at the nanoscale [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractWettability is the affinity of a liquid for a solid surface. For energetic reasons, macroscopic drops of liquid form nearly spherical caps. The degree of wettability is then captured by the contact angle where the liquid-vapor interface meets the solid-liquid interface.

A universal metric for ferroic energy materials [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2016 After almost 20 years of intensive research on magnetocaloric effects near room temperature, magnetic refrigeration with first-order magnetocaloric materials has come close to real-life applications. Many materials have been discussed as potential candidates to be used in multicaloric devices.

ADDITIVE ENERGY AND THE METRIC POISSONIAN PROPERTY [PDF]
Mathematika, 2018 Let $A$ be a set of natural numbers. Recent work has suggested a strong link between the additive energy of $A$ (the number of solutions to $a_1 + a_2 = a_3 + a_4$ with $a_i \in A$) and the metric Poissonian property, which is a fine-scale equidistribution property for dilates of $A$ modulo $1$.
