Missing process detail of sectors in Input-Output (I-O) tables has been pointed out as a limitation of I-O analysis in environmental-economic life cycle assessment. Aggregation of resource-intensive sectors decreases the accuracy of the results. Often, economic sectors are compiled in a more...

This article provides an overview of how generalised multi-regional input-output models can be used for carbon footprint applications. We focus on the relevance and suitability of such evidence to inform decision making. Such an overview is currently missing. Drawing on UK results, we cover...

Human heart rate, controlled by complex feedback mechanisms, is a vital index of systematic circulation. However, it has been shown that beat-to-beat values of heart rate fluctuate continually over a wide range of time scales. Herein we use the relative dispersion, the ratio of the standard...

Kinetic representation of fluid dynamics is essential for describing flows far beyond the Navier–Stokes regime. Existing lattice Boltzmann models suffer from discrete rotation artifacts at high Knudsen number (Kn). In this paper, we present a new approach that directly addresses this issue and...

We discuss the hypothesis that, in addition to the known critical point in water (below which two fluid phases — a lower-density gas and a higher-density liquid — coexist), there exists a “second” critical point at low temperatures (below which two liquid phases — a higher-density...
