Pattern Formation on Networks
Networks of interactions between competing species are used to model many complex systems, such as in genetics, evolutionary biology or sociology and knowledge of the patterns of activity they can exhibit is important for...

Understanding the anomalous frequency responses of composite materials using very large random resistor-capacitor networks
Mustapha Aouaichia, Nicholas McCullen, Christopher Bowen, Darryl Almond, Christopher Budd, R Bouamrane
Mar 08, 2017
In this paper large resistor-capacitor (RC) networks that consist of randomly distributed conductive and capacitive elements which are much larger than those previously explored are studied using an efficient algorithm. We...

Non-invasive technical investigation of english portrait miniatures attributed to Nicholas Hilliard and Isaac Oliver
This study presents the results of the technical investigation carried out on several English portrait miniatures painted in the 16th and 17th century by Nicholas Hilliard and Isaac Oliver, two of the most famous limners...
Integrating the energy costs of urban transport and buildings
We cannot effectively reduce the carbon-related urban energy use without first having a good method for measuring it at an effective scale. Most prior research has usually considered the energy consumption of buildings and...

A dynamical model of decision-making behavior in a network of consumers with applications to energy choices
A consumer behavior model is considered in the context of a network of interacting individuals in an energy market. We propose and analyze a simple dynamical model of an ensemble of coupled active elements mimicking consumers'...
Optimising peak energy reduction in networks of buildings
Buildings are amongst the world’s largest energy consumers and simultaneous peaks in demand from networks of buildings can decrease electricity system stability. Current mitigation measures either entail wasteful supply-side...

A comparative assessment of SARIMA, LSTM RNN and Fb Prophet models to forecast total and peak monthly energy demand for India
Selecting a suitable energy demand forecasting method is challenging due to the complex interplay of long-term trends, short-term seasonalities, and uncertainties. This paper compares four time-series models performance to...
Review of the Book "Understanding Liberal Democracy: Essays in Political Philosophy"
Kelly Sorensen
Jan 01, 0001
[Excerpt] Nicholas Wolterstorff argues that public reason liberalism is a dead end, and defends instead what he takes to be a more defensible form of liberalism ("equal political voice liberalism"). His book is fresh and...

Understanding the relationship between energy consumption and urban form
A large proportion of energy demand comes from urban areas, mostly from buildings and transport, the use of which has impacts on climate and air quality through the emissions of greenhouse gases and other pollutants. The...

Modeling diffusion of energy innovations on a heterogeneous social network and approaches to integration of real-world data
Recent developments in complexity science enable the study of the effect of social influences on the diffusion of new innovations, along with the spread of information through the overlapping communities to which people belong....
Lightweight aggregates as carriers for phase change materials
This paper initially reports on development of lightweight aggregates impregnated with phase change material (LWA-PCM), for application in mortars, plasters and other building materials. This is followed by a study into the...

The origin of power-law emergent scaling in large binary networks
We study the macroscopic conduction properties of large but finite binary networks with conducting bonds. By taking a combination of a spectral and an averaging based approach we derive asymptotic formulae for the conduction in...
