A unified probabilistic model for predicting occupancy, domestic hot water use and electricity use in residential buildings

A novel strategy that combines separate probabilistic models developed by other researchers into a unified model for generating schedules of active occupancy, domestic hot water (DHW) use, and non-HVAC electricity use in...

Hydrophobicity of Hemp Shiv treated with Sol-gel Coatings
This is the first time sol-gel technology is used in the treatment of hemp shiv to develop sustainable thermal insulation building materials. The impact on the hydrophobicity of hemp shiv by depositing functionalised sol-gel...
Development of novel building composites based on hemp and multi-functional silica matrix

This study focuses on the development of novel bio-composites using a silica matrix that provides dual functionality: as a hydrophobic surface treatment and as a binder for hemp-shiv. The hydrophilic nature of hemp shiv, a...

Characterizing optimal sampling of binary contingency tables via the configuration model
Jose Blanchet, A Stauffer
Mar 01, 2013
A binary contingency table is an m × n array of binary entries with row sums r = (r1,..., rm) and column sums c = (c1,..., cn). The configuration model generates a contingency table by considering ri tokens of type 1 for each...

A mapping variable ring polymer molecular dynamics study of condensed phase proton-coupled electron transfer.
We investigate the mechanisms of condensed phase proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) using Mapping-Variable Ring Polymer Molecular Dynamics (MV-RPMD), a recently developed method that employs an ensemble of classical...

‘Quel funeste poison? Racine, Nicole and theatrical crisis’
Nicholas Hammond
Oct 27, 2015
The querelle du théâtre during the seventeenth century is a subject that has received sustained critical attention. My starting point will be one small corner of the ongoing debate, namely the response by Jean Racine to Pierre...
Life history, climate and biogeography interactively affect worldwide genetic diversity of plant and animal populations.
Understanding how biological and environmental factors interactively shape the global distribution of plant and animal genetic diversity is fundamental to biodiversity conservation. Genetic diversity measured in local...
Respiratory Inductance Plethysmography for Automated Swallowing Detection
In the context of remote medical monitoring of swallowing, the authors investigate the potential of non-invasive respiratory inductance plethysmography (RIP) technique to automatically detect swallow events in a wide context of...
Seven remarks on the seventh angel
M Foucault, D Duncan
Sep 20, 2018
Michel Foucault’s essay, “7 Propos sur le 7e ange” [“Seven Remarks on the Seventh Angel”], first appeared as the preface to a bizarre work of folk etymology by Jean-Pierre Brisset (1837-1919), a stationmaster and autodidact from...
Identifying Archaeological Bone via Non-Destructive ZooMS and the Materiality of Symbolic Expression
Today, practical, functional and symbolic choices inform the selection of raw materials for worked objects. In cases where we can discern the origin of worked bone, tooth, ivory and antler objects in the past, we assume that...
2004 LEWIS THOMAS PRIZE
Jean-Pierre Changeux, recipient of the 2004 Lewis Thomas Prize: The Physiology of Truth: Toward a Neuroscience of Human Knowledge The Lewis Thomas Prize for Writing about Science is an international award that honors the...
The relationship between cultural capital and the students’ perception of feedback across 75 countries
This paper employs Pierre Bourdieu's cultural capital theory to examine the extent to which students' cultural capital is related to teacher-student interaction in the context of feedback. The study uses PISA (2018) data to...
