Since David Chaum introduced the idea of mix nets 40 years ago, they have become widely used building blocks for privacy-preserving protocols. Several important applications, such as secure e-voting, require that the ...

Integrated opto-chemical sensors present great advantages in comparison to the current lab equipment. They bring portability, reduced costs, facilitate in-situ measurements, as well as largely reduced sample volumes. In ...

Simulations were done in Matlab to see how many days of data is needed to get accurate values of solar and lunar semidiurnal tides amplitudes and phases. For the component dominating the signal, 4 days can be sufficient, ...

I denne studien ble solens innflytelse på halvtidevannet undersøkt. Dette ble gjort gjennom undersøkelse av sammenhengen mellom halvtidevannsamplituden i mesosfæren-nedre termosfæren (MLT) og Y$_{10.7}$-indeksen. ...

Net-zero energy buildings oftentimes rely on solar-based building integrated technologies to offset energy use and achieve their goals. However, the value of a particular system is difficult to assess given that these ...

Within the framework Solar Heating and Cooling Programme of the International Energy Agency Task 51 “Solar Energy in Urban Planning”, case studies from Norway, Sweden, and Denmark were collected and analyzed through a ...

Solar power is important for many scenarios of the Internet of Things (IoT). Resource-constrained devices depend on limited energy budgets to operate without degrading performance. Predicting solar energy is necessary for ...

This article proposes a solar water heater system induced by natural convective flow using supercritical CO2 as a working fluid. The proposed solar water heater can produce thermal energy as hot water from solar thermal ...

This study explored how to increase the on-site energy production of row-houses in a new urban development area located in Trondheim (Norway) from the early design stages. The process consisted in an evolutionary algorithmic ...
