Electronic, magnetic properties and magneto-caloric effects of NdSi Monte Carlo study

Clean Energy Science and Technology
The increasing focus on rare-earth-based intermetallic materials has intensified the search for compounds capable of delivering superior performance in low-temperature magnetic refrigeration systems. In the present work, we theoretically examine the electronic, magnetic, and magnetocaloric characteristics of the NdSi intermetallic compound by employing

A new method for ecoacoustics? Toward the extraction and evaluation of ecologically-meaningful soundscape components using sparse coding methods [PDF]

, 2016
Passive acoustic monitoring is emerging as a promising non-invasive proxy for ecological complexity with potential as a tool for remote assessment and monitoring (Sueur and Farina, 2015). Rather than attempting to recognise species-specific calls, either
