Patent Examination Decisions and Strategic Trade Behavior [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines whether strategic trade behavior can explain the fact that the US, Japanese and European Patent Offices – the USPTO, the JPO and the EPO – often make different decisions about whether to grant (or reject) a given patent application.

Two Problems for the Political Inclusion of Animals

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, Volume 43, Issue 2, Page 526-548, May 2026.
ABSTRACT In recent years, the field of animal ethics has taken a political turn, with scholars arguing that sentient nonhuman animals should be included in the political sphere. This article explores two key challenges arising from this turn towards the political inclusion of animals: the Conflict Problem and the Numbers Problem.

Stability Criteria of Reversible Pump Turbines

open access: yes, 2014
The objective in this Master's Thesis was to verify the stability criteria for a centrifugal pump. Operation of an unstable pump may lead to either exponential or oscillatory unstable behavior of both pressure and volume flow of the water in the conduit system. This is of course unwanted, and fulfilling the stability criteria is desirable.

Trading Strategies on Local Electricity Markets Using Agent‐Based Modelling and Reinforcement Learning: Vectors to Expand Energy Communities

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1188-1211, May/June 2026.
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.
