text: The key to achieving energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions in transportation
lies in the effectiveness of vehicles and their associated mechatronic systems.
A notable example of a mechatronic system is the headlamp at the front of a vehicle,
which emits adaptive headlights, such as the well-known adaptive cornering lights
or glare-free high beam. The rise of these and other Advanced Driver Assistance
Systems (ADAS) has led to a proliferation of sensor data. However, the full potential
of ADAS sensor data for increasing energy efficiency has not yet been exploited
in the past. This study demonstrates that utilizing the data to dynamically adapt
headlights to the upcoming driving scenario leads to a substantial reduction in
power consumption. This objective is pursued by focusing on the predominant carbon
footprint driver, namely the low beam.

text: "Many industrialized countries have recognized the need to mitigate energy
cost increases faced by low-income households by fostering the adoption of energy-efficient
technologies. How to meet this need is an open question, but “behavioral insights”
are likely components of future policy designs. Applying well-established behavioral
insights to low-income house- holds raises questions of transportability as they
are typically underrepresented in the existing evidence base. We illustrate this
problem by conducting a randomized field experiment on scalable, low-cost design
elements to improve program take-up in one of the world’s largest en- ergy efficiency
assistance programs. Observing investment decisions of over 1,800 low-income households
in Germany’s “Refrigerator Replacement Program”, we find that the transportabil-
ity problem is real and consequential: First, the most effective policy design
would not have been chosen based on existing behavioral insights. Second, design
elements favored by these insights either prove ineffective or even backfire,
violating ‘do no harm’ principles of policy advice. Systematic testing remains
crucial for addressing the transportability problem, partic- ularly for policies
targeting vulnerable groups.\r\n"

text: Abstract. In order to reduce global energy consumption in production
and industry along with the associated CO2 emissions, existing resources must
be used more efficiently. This includes the energy-efficient and comprehensive
recycling of a wide range of metals. Especially for the production of aluminium,
there is a large potential for saving energy using efficient recycling processes.
With regard to the recycling of aluminium studies have shown that solid-state
recycling processes are significantly more efficient considering the used energy
and resources compared to the conventional, smelting-metallurgical recycling process.
In this paper, the direct and energy-efficient friction-induced recycling process
(FIRP) based on the conform process is further described and analysed in terms
of the temperature-property relationships. For this purpose, the influence of
the processing temperature on the microstructure and properties of the recycled
semi-finished products is investigated using the toll system that enables an ECAP
forming. Specific sections of the (in theory) infinite, recycled semi-finished
product are taken and analysed at different process temperatures of the solid
state recycling process. Based on these sections, the properties in terms of mechanical
hardness, strength, ductility and grain size are analysed and a degressive relationship
between process temperature and mechanical hardness up to a temperature of 270
°C can be shown. Applying the Hall-Petch relationship, it is analysed whether
there is a correlation between the strength and the microstructure in the form
of the grain size.

text: In a world, where more and more businesses seem to trade in an online market,
the supply of online services to supply the ever-growing demand could quickly
reach its capacity limits. Online service providers may find themselves maxed
out at peak operation levels during high-traffic timeslots but too little demand
during low-traffic timeslots, although the latter is becoming less frequent. At
this point not only deciding which user is allocated what level of service becomes
essential, but also the magnitude of the service provided, can be controlled by
pricing. Pricing is an important factor when efficient and acceptable allocation
of resources between individuals must be reached. Without prices, transferring
or sharing goods would be impossible. In sharing information, pricing a product
however is not as simple as relatively pricing an apple or a pear. Often the costs,
and hence the prices are simply unknown. Backed by this scenario, the online services
market could be combined with the market design mechanism of diamonds. For this
we propose an ultimatum pricing strategy which effectively allows for valuations
to be accounted for, but no longer a necessity when pricing in grid, cloud or
other online computing environments.
