Exceeding the Shockley-Queisser limit within the detailed balance framework

open access: yes, 2017
The Shockley-Queisser limit is one of the most fundamental results in the field of photovoltaics. Based on the principle of detailed balance, it defines an upper limit for a single junction solar cell that uses an absorber material with a specific band ...

Exploring forms of the moist shallow‐water equations using a new compatible finite‐element discretisation

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We present a compatible finite‐element discretisation of a general formulation of moist shallow‐water equations, with the aim of providing a simple model to advance understanding of physics–dynamics coupling. We detail set‐ups and show three moist shallow‐water test cases in four different model formulations. The results demonstrate differences between

Proposed standardized definitions for vertical resolution and uncertainty in the NDACC lidar ozone and temperature algorithms – Part 1: Vertical resolution [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2016
A standardized approach for the definition and reporting of vertical resolution of the ozone and temperature lidar profiles contributing to the Network for the Detection for Atmospheric Composition Change (NDACC) database is proposed.

Towards Accurate One-Stage Object Detection with AP-Loss

open access: yes, 2019
One-stage object detectors are trained by optimizing classification-loss and localization-loss simultaneously, with the former suffering much from extreme foreground-background class imbalance issue due to the large number of anchors.

Scale interactions of deep convection in the Sahel: Exploring ring patterns in lagged cross‐correlations of rainfall

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Spatio‐temporal patterns in rainfall are evidence of scale interactions in convection in the West African Sahel. Radial normalization of two‐dimensional conditional probability maps reveals a ring‐like structure in rainfall probabilities surrounding previous rainfall.

APPROXIMATING MATHEMATICAL MODEL DEVELOPMENT ACCORDING TO POINT EXPERIMENTAL DATA THROUGH “CUT-GLUE” METHOD

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Research, 2014
A solution to the problem on describing experimentally obtained dependences is considered. The autho r’s method is based upon getting some local approximations of fragments of these relations, and their additive reduction to a single analytical ...

Ensemble Kalman filter in latent space using a variational autoencoder pair

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The use of the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) in strongly nonlinear or constrained atmospheric, oceanographic, or sea‐ice models can be challenging. Applying the EnKF in the latent space of a variational autoencoder (VAE) ensures that the ensemble members satisfy the balances and constraints present in the model.

Recovering Latent Signals from a Mixture of Measurements using a Gaussian Process Prior

open access: yes, 2017
In sensing applications, sensors cannot always measure the latent quantity of interest at the required resolution, sometimes they can only acquire a blurred version of it due the sensor's transfer function. To recover latent signals when only noisy mixed

Determining Diffusion Coefficients in Polymer Electrolyte Membranes With Lab Based Micro X‐Ray Fluorescence Analysis: A Proof of Concept

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The diffusion of metal ions in polymer electrolyte membranes is an important parameter for aging and capacity loss in electrochemical cells. Here, the diffusion coefficients of vanadium ions in Nafion membranes are studied. These are important to describe transportation of the ions through the membrane separator in vanadium redox flow ...
