Practicing Local Data Journalism
Andreas Veglis
Jul 01, 2024
The use of local data journalism has the power to fundamentally change local news. Local journalists can find vital insights, spot trends, and shed light on significant issues that have an impact on their communities by...
A Template for Defining Enterprise Modelling Constructs
The paper explains the need for a standard way of defining modelling constructs from different enterprise modelling languages and proposes a template for defining enterprise modelling constructs in a way that facilitates...
Estimating White-Tailed Deer Abundance in Urban Freshwater Tidal Marsh Habitat
Ian Johnson
Jan 01, 0001
In the past century deer populations have responded extremely well to human development. Today deer populations are the highest that they have been for centuries. These animals thrive in anthropogenic landscapes and in many...

Combined Assessment of Software Safety and Security Requirements
Safety is a fundamental concern in modern society, and security is a precondition for safety. Ensuring safety and security of complex integrated systems requires a coordinated approach that involve different stakeholder groups...
Which Democratic Way to Go?
There are concerns amongst researchers and the general public that social media platforms threaten democratic values. Social media corporations and their engineers have responded to these concerns with various design solutions....
A Participatory Design and Formal Study Investigation into Mobile Text Entry for Older Adults
Text entry remains key to many tasks on touchscreen smartphones and is an important factor in the usability of such devices. The known problems of text entry can be particularly acute for older adults due to physical and...
Experimental Investigation of Ion Formation for Auto-Ignition Combustion in a High-Temperature and High-Pressure Combustion Vessel

One of the main challenges in internal combustion engine design is the simultaneous reduction of all engine pollutants like carbon monoxide (CO), total unburned hydrocarbons (THC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and soot....

Experimental-Based Laminar Flame Speed Approximation Formulas of Efficiency-Optimized Biofuels for SI-Engine Modeling

The transition towards sustainable mobility encourages research into biofuels for use in internal combustion engines. For these alternative energy carriers, high-fidelity experimental data of flame speeds influenced by...

3D-CFD RANS Methodology to Predict Engine-Out Emissions with Gasoline-Like Fuel and Methanol for a DISI Engine

Renewable fuels, such as bio- and e-fuels, are of great interest for the defossilization of the transport sector. Among these fuels, methanol represents a promising candidate for emission reduction and efficiency increase due...

Experimental comparison of combustion and emission characteristics between a market gasoline and its surrogate

Mixtures of few representative hydrocarbon species are often used in computational studies as surrogates of market petroleum fuels, which contain hundreds of components. While this simplification is imperative for...

Applying the Computational Intelligence Paradigm to Nuclear Power Plant Operation
In the guise of artificial neural networks (ANNs), genetic/evolutionary computation algorithms (GAs/ECAs), fuzzy logic (FL) inference systems (FLIS) and their variants as well as combinations, the computational intelligence (CI)...
Addressing Sustainability of Sanitation Systems
Recently, a technical draft of the international standard ISO/DIS 30500 for non-sewered sanitation systems has been developed (publication expected for 2018). Its innovative feature is the inclusion of sustainable aspects. This...
Development of Phenomenological Models for Engine-Out Hydrocarbon Emissions from an SI di Engine within a 0D Two-Zone Combustion Chamber Description

The increasingly stringent limits on pollutant emissions from internal combustion engine-powered vehicles require the optimization of advanced combustion systems by means of virtual development and simulation tools. Among the...

Experimental Investigation of Ion Formation for Auto-Ignition Combustion in a High-Temperature and High-Pressure Combustion Vessel

One of the main challenges in internal combustion engine design is the simultaneous reduction of all engine pollutants like carbon monoxide (CO), total unburned hydrocarbons (THC), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and soot....

Constraints on lateral gene transfer in promoting fimbrial usher protein diversity and function.
Fimbriae are long, adhesive structures widespread throughout members of the family Enterobacteriaceae. They are multimeric extrusions, which are moved out of the bacterial cell through an integral outer membrane protein called...
