Urban living labs for sustainability and low carbon cities in Europe: Towards a research agenda

Urban living labs (ULLs) are emerging as a form of collective urban governance and experimentation to address sustainability challenges and opportunities created by urbanisation. ULLs have different goals, they are initiated by various actors, and they form different types of partnerships. There is no uniform ULL definition. However, many projects studying and testing living lab methodologies are

Patient-specific Glucose Metabolism Models for Model Predictive Control of T1DM Glycemia

The development of a predictive control algorithm for glycaemia regulation in diabetic subjects requires patient-specific models of the glucose metabolism which are physiologically relevant, parsimonious, yet able to accurately forecast blood glucose. Given the measured data: total plasma insulin [mIU/L]; plasma glucose [mg/dL]; plasma glucose rate of appearance after intestinal absorption [mg/kg

Star product and the general Leigh-Strassler deformation

We extend the definition of the star product introduced by Lunin and Maldacena to study marginal deformations of N=4 SYM. The essential difference from the latter is that instead of considering U(1)xU(1) non-R-symmetry, with charges in a corresponding diagonal matrix, we consider two Z_3-symmetries followed by an SU(3) transformation, with resulting off-diagonal elements. From this procedure we ob

Search for heavy Majorana neutrinos with the ATLAS detector in pp collisions at root s=8 TeV

A search for heavy Majorana neutrinos in events containing a pair of high-p(T) leptons of the same charge and high-p(T) jets is presented. The search uses 20.3 fb(-1) of pp collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider with a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 8TeV. The data are found to be consistent with the background-only hypothesis based on the Standard Mod

The release of terpenes during storage of biomass

During outdoor storage of large quantities of wood fuels, hydrocarbons are emitted into air in gas phase and leached out into the ground by precipitation. To investigate to what extent these emissions have environmental or health effects, sampling has been done on wood chip piles in an existing terminal storage situated in the south of Sweden, north east of Växjö. Sampling was done by solid phase
