Automation acceptance for sustainable digital daily life by Vrain, E, Wilson, C

“…This empirical research addresses the gap of understanding factors influencing automation acceptance in different daily life activities and the possible impacts on acceptance this may have for other activities. Utilising a mixed methods experimental research design within a UK household living lab, we conducted two one-month trials, automating the planning and execution of distinct daily activities (grocery shopping and floor cleaning). …”

A stochastic model for the turbulent ocean heat flux under Arctic sea ice by Toppaladoddi, S, Wells, AJ

“…Here, we develop a model of the turbulent ice-ocean heat flux using coupled ordinary stochastic differential equations to model fluctuations in the vertical velocity and temperature in the Arctic mixed layer. All the parameters in the model are determined from observational data. …”

Cationic distribution, exchange interactions, and relaxation dynamics in Zn-diluted MnCo2O4 nanostructures by Tiwari, Nidhi, Pramanik, P., Joshi, D. C., Sarkar, T., Pittala, S., Salman, O. O., Manga, M.-M., Thota, S.

“…The amplitude and peak position in χac(T) decreases with an increase in the DC bias field, which indicates that the spin-glass phase can survive in the presence of low fields forming a critical line with an exponent 2/3. This behavior is similar to the de Almeida-Thouless (AT-line) analysis in the T-H phase diagram which supports the existence of spin-glass like behavior below TF in these Zn diluted spinels.…”
