Assessing Water Solubility of Ester‐Based Oils and Unravelling Their Mechanisms by a Quantitative Model

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Moisture is a sensitive issue for transformer oils, as it adversely affects the stability of insulation papers and dielectric strength of the oils. However, the lack of a quantitative model makes it challenging to evaluate the water solubility of ester‐based oils, which is an undesirable restriction for developing novel ester‐based oils ...

Quantitative Structure–Property Relationship for High Flash Point of Ester Oil Molecules and Its Experimental Verification

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the increasing voltage of ester oil‐filled transformers and their application in offshore wind power, developing high‐performance, fire‐resistant esters is crucial for enhancing transformer safety. Flash point, a key indicator of fire‐resistant performance for esters, is directly related to the molecular structures.

Comprehensive Design and Experimental Validation of 30 kV Ultra‐Fast Flexible Controllable Arresters for HVDC Systems

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To effectively suppress transient overvoltages in HVDC systems, the design and experimental validation of a multi‐module series controllable arrester are presented. The voltage‐limiting performance, series voltage equalisation capability, and robustness under fault conditions in high‐voltage scenarios require further research.

Vog: Using Volcanic Eruptions to Estimate the Health Costs of Particulates

open access: yesThe Economic Journal, EarlyView., 2018
The negative consequences of long‐term exposure to particulate pollution are well established but a number of studies find no effect of short‐term exposure on health outcomes. The high correlation of industrial pollutants complicates the estimation of the impact of individual pollutants on health.

Offshore wind farm avoidance by a discard‐feeding seabird is independent of local fishing activity

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Fishing is not allowed within wind farms; therefore, discard‐feeding seabirds may appear to avoid wind farm areas. We found that most Lesser Black‐backed Gulls avoided the wind farm area, but not each individual in each period. Avoidance of the wind farm was not driven by fishing exclusion within its perimeter.

The Gender of Fossil Fuels: Oil and Domestic Perils in Mandate Palestine

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article explores the gender dynamics behind the rise of kerosene – an oil derivative – as the main domestic fuel in Mandate Palestine. It argues that these dynamics were constitutive in determining who began to use oil, where and for what purposes, in turn demonstrating that women in Palestine were the promoters and targets of a campaign ...

300 Years of Degradation in Wales Estuaries and Coasts

open access: yesNatural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The world's oceans are in a severe state of degradation, yet our understanding of that degradation is often based on changes observed only in the past 20–50 years. This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.

Hurricane‐induced risk contagion in commercial real estate: Evidence from Hurricane Sandy

open access: yesReal Estate Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines how hurricane‐induced destruction affects the prices of nearby undamaged commercial real estate properties, using Hurricane Sandy as a natural experiment. Using Real Capital Analytics transaction records spatially merged with Federal Emergency Management Agency building‐level damage data, we empirically employ a difference ...
