Architectural representation ; spatial comprehension and assessment through visualization technique
… that attempts to visualize physical phenomena (energy behavior) as they act on physical models representative of architectural form. A statement is put forth postulating a design approach that addresses energy behavior in a 'qualitative' sense based on its comprehension through these established …

Design, development and evaluation on decision making algorithms, based on innovative smart energy networks
The use of renewable energy sources across Europe and many other parts of the world has been largely supported by government and economic incentives in recent years. Taking into account European Union climate change legislation requiring EU Member States to produce 20% of their electricity from …

La Citè (post) Industrielle. Efficienza energetica urbana
Main studies in energy saving in construction have demonstrated the restriction on benefits achievable with efforts mon buildings and the necessity of a “change of scale” moving from a single residential unit to the whole urban system. In fact, results attainable with energy saving policies applied …

Studies on Hydrogen-Pinch Analysis and Application of COSMO-SAC to Electrolytes
… to add an additional term to the exchange energy to account for ion-ion attractive and repulsive forces. We also look at the resulting exchange energy behavior. Although accurate numerical results are not achieved, we are able to produce results that match literature data by adding an …

Relativistic dynamics and Dirac particles in graphene
… machinery needed to model and understand the low energy behavior. We will see that graphene offers many very strange and unexpected phenomena. We will begin with monolayer in crossed electric and magnetic fields and use the Lorentz symmetry of the Dirac equation to solve for magnetoconductance. …

Terahertz spectroscopy of quantum spin liquids
… is proposed to exhibit Quantum Spin Liquid behavior, in which electron spins have strong antiferromagnetic interactions, but quantum fluctuations inhibit magnetic order even at 0 K, instead giving way to a Resonating Valence Bond state. Quantum Spin Liquids host exotic fractionalized …

High-Energy Amplitudes in Gauge Theories in the Next-to-Leading-Order
… into the fine structure of matter. The high-energy behavior of amplitudes in gauge theories can be reformulated in terms of the evolution of Wilson-line operators. In the leading order this evolution is governed by the non-linear Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation. In order to see if this …
