Performance assessment of a potential underground thermal storage facility: Case study of the closed mine Prosper‐Haniel in the Ruhr coal mining area in Germany

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).

Changing Minds in Times of War: An Intervention Tournament to Increase Public Support for Ending the Israel–Gaza War

European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Public opinion plays a central role in shaping conflict dynamics and influencing wartime policy. In this work, we examined which psychological intergroup interventions could increase public opposition to war. Building on research showing that instrumental reasoning and social identification are central, though not exhaustive, predictors of war‐

Investigation of Spent Nuclear Fuel Pool Coolability

, 2011
The natural catastrophe at Fukushima Dai-ichi 2011 enlightened the nuclear community. This master thesis reveals the non-negligible risks regarding the short term storage of spent nuclear fuel. The thesis has also investigated the possibility of using natural circulation of air in a passive safety system to cool the spent nuclear fuel pools.

Techno‐Economic Analysis and Multi‐Objective Optimization of a Novel Combined Cooling and Power System Driven by Geothermal Source and Waste Heat From Data Center

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A novel combined cooling and power generation system is proposed by integrating organic Rankine cycle (ORC) with an absorption heat transformer, which is driven by combining geothermal energy and data center's waste heat. The system using R601a yielded the best overall performance, achieving an exergy efficiency of 40.34% and an annual cost of 130.29 k$

Regulatory Effects of Ammonium Chloride in an In Vitro Model of Hepatic Encephalopathy: Mechanisms Involving ACTA2‐Mediated Cytoskeletal Remodeling

iLABMED, EarlyView.
Hyperammonemic stress suppresses ACTA2 expression and induces F‐actin cytoskeletal remodeling in astrocytes. The resulting inhibition of FAK/c‐Src signaling contributes to apoptosis, G2/M arrest, AQP4‐mediated swelling and junction‐associated proteins dysregulation, revealing a central role for ACTA2‐dependent cytoskeletal dysfunction in hepatic ...
