Mapping Time-Varying Accessibility and Territorial Cohesion With Time-Distorted Maps by Balsa-Barreiro, José, Ambuühl, Lukas, Menéndez, Mónica, Pentland, Alex

“…Territorial cohesion and accessibility within a region could be roughly evaluated through the existing level of connectivity between urban nodes. This can be easily done by estimating travel times between different points in the territory, which would show relevant differences based on both the territory itself and the existing infrastructure. …”

Dimensionally reduced expression for the QCD fermion determinant at finite temperature and chemical potential by Adams, David H.

“…A dimensionally reduced expression for the QCD fermion determinant at finite temperature and chemical potential is derived which sheds light on the determinant’s dependence on these quantities. This is done via a partial zeta regularization, formally applying a general formula for the zeta determinant of a differential operator in one variable with operator-valued coefficients. …”

Performance evaluation of low-pressure turbine, turbo-compounding and air-Brayton cycle as engine waste heat recovery method by Teo, Aaron Edward Sheng Jye, Chiong, Meng Soon, Yang, Mingyang, Romagnoli, Alessandro, Martinez-Botas, Ricardo F., Rajoo, Srithar

“…It is found that all three methods cannot work effectively without at least reducing the turbocharger turbine size to amplify the compressor surplus power. It is done by using a commercially available turbocharger turbine with smaller area over radius (A/R) volute, hence ensuring the least possible engine hardware change. …”
