Energy Efficiency Metrics of University Data Centers

open access: yesKnowledge 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

open access: yesBuildings & 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

An Overview of Heart Rate Variability Metrics and Norms

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2017
Healthy biological systems exhibit complex patterns of variability that can be described by mathematical chaos. Heart rate variability (HRV) consists of changes in the time intervals between consecutive heartbeats called interbeat intervals (IBIs).

Adsorption energy as a metric for wettability at the nanoscale [PDF]

open access: yesScientific 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]

open access: yesPhilosophical 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]

open access: yesMathematika, 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 $1$.

A matter of metrics? How analysing per capita energy use changes the face of energy efficient housing in Sweden and reveals injustices in the energy transition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Improving energy performance of the housing stock continues to be an important undertaking in the energy transition of many EU member states. However, tendencies of low-income households generally living in buildings with low energy performance pose a ...

Evaluating equity and justice in low-carbon energy transitions

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
A low-carbon energy transition is essential for mitigating climate change, but can also cause energy justice and equity impacts on Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), low-income, and other frontline communities.

Performance Metrics Research Project - Final Report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
NREL began work for DOE on this project to standardize the measurement and characterization of building energy performance. NREL's primary research objectives were to determine which performance metrics have greatest value for determining energy ...
