Influence of Temperature on the Reliability of Graphene‐Based Ozone Sensors
Small, EarlyView.The reliability and stability of inkjet‐printed graphene flake sensors are evaluated. Stress assessments take place in ozone‐rich environments and at elevated temperatures, with the observation of a change in resistance. Surface‐sensitive techniques serve to investigate the failure and degradation mechanisms of printed graphene.

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Energy communities (ECs) members have a high degree of heterogeneity. Agent‐based modelling (ABM) allows for the modelling of each entity as an agent with distinct characteristics and decision rules. This is particularly useful when the heterogeneity of agents affects outcomes.
