Advanced integrated supervisory and wind turbine control for optimal operation of large wind power plants

Cost of energy (COE) is the most important single factor in deployment of renewables in the energy system. Reduction of COE is, among other things, directly related to operational control of Wind Power Plants (WPP) as a whole and the individual wind turbines (WT) within them. In the Total Control project the COE reduction will be pursued by developing and validating advanced integrated WPP/WT control schemes, where all essential interactions between the WPP WT’s are accounted for including both production and load aspects.
Optimal WPP control is traditionally formulated as a one-parameter optimization problem focusing on the WPP production only. However, ultimately the optimal WPP performance should result from a multi objective optimization problem, where the optimal economic performance of a WPP is pursued over the WPP life time, conditioned on external grid demands. This is what Total Control is about.
The suggested integrated WPP/WT control approach seeks the optimal economical WPP revenue – i.e. the optimal economic balance between WPP power production and WPP operational costs. This is done by developing hierarchically coupled WPP and WT control schemes conditioned on a set of superior grid operator demands. 
In the WPP control design phase information is only fed from the WPP controller to the individual WT controllers, whereas in on-line operational control available WT and WPP flow field information will be assimilated into the WPP control for optimal system performance. Furthermore, the WPP controller will also make use of current market information (e.g. energy price, demand for ancillary services etc.) as well as information about the state of individual turbines (e.g. current operational state, maintenance requirements and component lifetime consumption) to allow COE objectives to be optimised dynamically.
TOwards a Goal of Efficiency THrough Energy Reduction

The economic situation is forcing public authorities to limit Energy Efficiency (EE) investments in buildings and, as in Central Europe (CE) there is a lack of uniformity in approaches & capacities to adopt EE solutions, our goal is to encourage Public Administrations (PAs) to improve EE in their buildings also by involving users in energy management. TOGETHER changes the existing atomistic vision into a holistic vision of the buildings as a whole of functions and relationships between physical space, technological devices and users’ needs-behaviour. TOGETHER goes beyond isolated technical interventions by integrating them with financial/contracting and Demand Side Management (DSM) tools such as the EPIC model (Energy Performance integrated Contract), which is based on technological devices & a behaviour-based component and a Building Alliance concept among buildings managers, owners and users.  Outputs are: a Interdisciplinary Transnational Training Model; a Training of Trainers and 8 local Interdisciplinary Trainings, targeting about 150 owners/managers/decision makers; an Integrated Transnational Toolkit combining technical, financial & DSM tools; pilot actions involving 85 buildings audited and equipped with smart metering systems for a total of 8 pilot investments; a Transnational Strategy on how to increase EE in buildings through integrated tools, which is translated at partners’ level into a Policy Package that includes a Reinvestment Action Plan, aimed at triggering further investments. 8 PPs and 29 APs will benefit directly from these outputs in different ways and CE citizens will take advantage of savings generated by more skilled PAs able to secure funds and low cost measures for EE.TOGETHER offers a transnational capacity building platform, where partners with different levels of knowledge can strengthen their competences together, reducing their disparities, and promote actions on both the supply and demand side when planning EE in public buildings.
From microns to reefs: mechanistic insights into coral biomineralisation and the fate of coral reefs

Coral Reefs are under threat from climate change, pollution and other local and global anthropogenic disturbances. Microns2Reefs will go beyond the state of the art by providing the mechanistic understanding needed to accurately predict their fate given the multifaceted and multifactorial anthropogenic threats they face. Coral reefs provide many ecosystem functions, from coastal defence to sustaining fisheries. These, and many others, critically depend on the 3D framework of the reef made from the skeletons of Scleractinian corals. The coral biomineralisation tool kit is known but key questions remain: what biomineralisation tools are most important? what and how do environmental and biological factors limit and influence biomineralisation? how does the environmental sensitivity of coral biomineralisation determine the diversity, resilience, and survivability of individual colonies and the entire reef? The answers to these questions are key to inform the strategies needed to effectively manage these diversity hotspots and are placed into sharp focus by recent coral mass mortality events and the rapidity of anthropogenic climate change.

Microns2Reefs will produce a step change by integrating a raft of new and innovative scientific techniques to provide a mechanistic understanding of coral biomineralisation and hence coral reef resilience. Microns2Reefs has four objectives: 1) to develop a novel multimodal imaging technique to reconstruct the nature of the calcifying fluid and the biomineralisation process in 3D; 2) use this to build a detailed model of coral biomineralisation; 3) develop a mechanistic understanding of the relationship between environment and skeleton construction; 4) quantify the future resilience of corals and coral reefs in the face of multiple anthropogenic stressors. Microns2Reefs is only now feasible due to recent analytical developments, exchange of knowledge and ideas from biomedical sciences, and advances in geochemistry and coral genomics.
Connecting reflective practice, dialogic protocols, and professional learning

In recent years, elements of reflective practice have been popularized in state school professional development. As reflective practice has moved into the mainstream, dialogic protocols have been developed by numerous organizations to structure discourse for deep understanding, enhance professional practice and advance organizational learning. This case study reports on the use of a dialogic protocol as a tool to advance educator reflective practice. It finds that the protocol significantly alters prevailing discussion patterns to promote the construction of new knowledge. It recommends further exploration of dialogic protocols by practitioners and researchers as a potentially powerful tool to enhance professional learning.

Rainbow music. Tartini-Vivaldi music meetings between Italy and Slovenia

A series of concerts will be held by young Venetian and Slovenian musicians, and a workshop will be organized to study and interpret the eighteenth century opera, in order to produce the Giuseppe Gazzaniga/Giovanni Bertati’s “Don Giovanni”. The famous librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte drew on this original version of “Don Giovanni” to write the libretto of Mozart’s more famous and luckier “Don Giovanni”. The workshop will be directed by qualified musicians, chosen in cooperation with the university of Venice. An admission test will be required to take part in the workshop. Following upon the success of the last series of music meetings between Italy and Slovenia, four performances of Bertati/Gazzaniga’s “Don Giovanni” will take place in Martellago, Mirano, S. Maria di Sala and Koper - Capodistria. Eleven concerts will be held by Venetian and Slovenian musical ensembles. The artistic programme will be defined in cooperation with the musical institutes. The organization of the project will be agreed upon with the musical association “Barocco e dintorni di Mirano”, which has worked successfully in this field for several years. Meetings and conferences will also be organized to deal with wine-and-food tasting, to highlight the continuation between past and present both in the Venetian area and in Slovenia. A conference will also be held in Mirano, and a meeting on cuisine culture will take place in Mirano and Koper - Capodistria.
Elementary Ratiocination: Anticipating Sherlock Holmes in a Slovene Setting

The paper reevaluates an obscure, German-language crime novel from the nineteenth century and its better-known English translation: Carl Adolf Streckfuss’s Das einsame Haus: nach den Tagebüchern des Herrn Professor Döllnitz: Roman (1888), translated as The Lonely House (1907). Although written in German by an author from Berlin, the novel is set on the territory of Slovenia. The paper situates the novel geographically and historically, while considering its place in the developing genres of crime and later detective fiction. Moreover, the novel’s depiction of intraethnic tension in the Slovenian village where the crime occurs will be shown to reflect the ethnic tensions on the frontiers of Austro-Hungarian territory, and to align with later trends in English detective fiction towards the use of ethnic taxonomies in constructing and solving crime.
Separation of terbutaline enantiomers in capillary electrophoresis with cyclodextrin-type chiral selectors and investigation of structure of selector-selectand complexes

The affinity pattern of terbutaline enantiomers towards various cyclodextrins was studied using capillary electrophoresis. The affinity pattern of terbutaline enantiomers was the same towards all studied cyclodextrins except heptakis(2-O-methyl-3,6-di-O-sulfo)-β-CD. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used for understanding of fine structural mechanisms of interactions of β-cyclodextrin and its two sulfated derivatives with the enantiomers of terbutaline. The structure of terbutaline complexes with all 3 cyclodextrins studied was different from each other. In confirmation with our earlier studies it was shown again that capillary electrophoresis represents very sensitive technique for studies of affinity patterns in cyclodextrin complexes with chiral guests. Other instrumental (e.g. NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis) and theoretical techniques, although very useful for obtaining the information regarding the stoichiometry, binding constants and structure of intermolecular complexes, as well as about the forces involved in selector-selectand binding and chiral recognition, may sometimes fail to properly sense those fine differences in the affinity patterns. Therefore, it is recommended to use capillary electrophoresis in order to examine correctness of affinity pattern determined for intermolecular complexes of cyclodextrins with guest molecules by other instrumental or computation techniques.
I tratti storici e culturali del mediterraneo nel fumetto Favola di Venezia di Hugo Pratt

Il fumetto Favola di Venezia è una storia apparentemente semplice sull' avventura di Corto Maltese alla ricerca di uno smeraldo perduto da qualche parte in questa bellissima città. Tuttavia, da un' analisi dei simboli e delle personalità sia nei disegni che nella parte testuale del fumetto si può dedurre che si tratta, di fatto, della storia del Mediterraneo come uno spazio in cui diverse culture, non solo geograficamente ma anche culturalmente, sono state legate da secoli. Essendo sempre in contatto, si mescolano e cambiano, si influenzano a vicenda, ma riescono comunque a mantenere la loro autenticità. Sebbene facciano parte del patrimonio culturale dell' intero Mediterraneo, i simboli, le leggende e le persone citati in questo fumetto sono associati principalmente a Venezia, in modo che, con una sola passeggiata per la città, il lettore possa facilmente immaginare la storia dell' intero territorio del Mediterraneo. Nell`articolo si cerca di provare che la lettura di questa opera non può essere passiva perché Pratt chiede dal lettore di esplorare attivamente simboli, personaggi ed eventi menzionati in Favola. Parole chiave: civiltà; Favola di Venezia; Hugo Pratt; leggende; Mediterraneo; simboli
Computation of pharmacophore models for the prediction of mitogen-activated protein kinase activated protein kinase-2 inhibitory activity of pyrrolopyridines

This article is an attempt to formulate the three-dimensional pharmacophore modelling of pyrrolopyridine derivatives inhibiting mitogen-activated protein kinase activated protein kinase-2 (MK2). To understand the essential structural features for MK2 inhibitors, pharmacophore hypothesis were built on the basis of a set of known MK2 inhibitors selected from literature using PHASE program. Three pharmacophore models with one hydrogen-bond acceptor (A), two hydrogen-bond donors (D), one hydrophobic group (H) and one aromatic ring (R) as pharmacophoric features were developed. Amongst them the pharmacophore hypothesis ADDHR1 yielded a statistically significant 3D-QSAR model with 0.926 as R2 value and was considered to be the best pharmacophore hypothesis. The developed pharmacophore model was externally validated by predicting the activity of test set molecules. The squared predictive correlation coefficient of 0.882 was observed between experimental and predicted activity values of test set molecules. The geometry and features of pharmacophore was expected to be useful for the design of selective MK2 inhibitors.

Fully air-processable and air-stable perovskite solar cells based on inorganic metal halide perovskite nanocrystals

Hybrid perovskites represent a new paradigm for photovoltaics, showing the potential of cost-effective fabrication, viable integration for a multi-junction device, and flexible device applications. However, the viability of perovskite solar cells is still far behind commercialization due to difficulties arising from little air-stability and inconsistent power output. The FASTEST project aims to synthesize air-stable inorganic perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) for their application in high-performance photovoltaics. Inorganic perovskite NCs exhibited outstanding optical properties, with photoluminescence quantum yield above 80%, i.e. low charge recombination losses. However, current nanoparticle synthesis methods use bulky, high-boiling point ligands which hamper the formation of high quality optoelectronic thin films, i.e. films with high charge transport and limited recombination, which severely limits possibilities of applications. This project will overcome these hurdles by engineering perovskite NCs by introducing short ligands for room temperature (RT) synthesis and compositional substitution with second metallic ions to stabilize perovskite NCs with an optimal bandgap. Furthermore, to attain air-durability as well as a good dispersion in solution states, novel polymeric passivating materials which protect perovskite NCs from degradation will be incorporated. These will develop effective strategies for enhancing the durability of metal halide perovskite nanoparticles from synthesis scheme to device operations. The technological advancement will be supported by fundamental studies on the photophysical properties of perovskite NCs related with physics of defect and perovskite degradation under controlled conditions of humidity, light, and temperature. This will lead to an understanding of the degradation mechanisms in the perovskite NCs, finally a demonstration of the solution-processable perovskite NCs for flexible large-area PV applications.
Relationship between breast-feeding and bone mineral density among Korean women in the 2010 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey

Breast-feeding has the deleterious effect of hypoestrogenemia coupled with loss of calcium in the maternal bone mass. It is not clear whether changes in bone metabolism in lactating women lead to changes in maternal bone mineral density (BMD) over a longer period. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between the duration of breast-feeding and BMD in healthy South Korean women. We analyzed data from the 2010 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, a cross-sectional survey of Korean citizens. A total of 1342 women older than 19 years were selected for analysis. In postmenopausal women, the duration of breast-feeding per child was associated with low lumbar spine BMD after adjustment for age, body mass index, smoking, alcohol intake, physical activity, serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level, and daily intake of calcium and calories (P < 0.05, P trend < 0.005). Prolonged breast-feeding for more than 1 year per child was associated with a deleterious effect on lumbar spine BMD compared with never breast-feeding or a shorter duration of breast-feeding (P < 0.05). These effects were not shown in premenopausal women or in femur BMD. In conclusion, the duration of breast-feeding per child is negatively correlated with lumbar spine BMD in postmenopausal women, but not in premenopausal women. Although the cause of the different results between postmenopausal and premenopausal women is not clear, our findings suggest that proper protective strategies should be recommended during prolonged breast-feeding to maintain bone health later in life.

Hot to cold : an odyssey of architectural adaptation

After the global success of Yes is More, one of the best-selling architecture books of its generation, BIG - Bjarke Ingels Group presents Hot to Cold, an Odyssey of Architectural Adaptation. The book coincides with the Hot to Cold show at the National Building Museum in Washington DC and presents 60 case studies in harsh climate conditions in order to examine where and how we live on our planet. As we travel from one end of the spectrum to its opposite we will see that the more harsh the climate gets, the more intense its impact on the architecture. The central challenge is to mitigate the climatic extremes for hospitable human life, while finding solutions that can be both economically and environmentally profitable. Architecture is the art and science of accommodating the lives we want to live. Our cities and buildings aren't givens; they are the way they are because that is as far as we have gotten to date. They are the best efforts of our ancestors and fellow planetizens, and if they have shortcomings, it is up to us to continue that effort, pick up where they left off. Hot to Cold stays true to BIG - Bjarke Ingels Group's grand mission to find a pragmatic utopia, shaping not only a particular structural entity, but the kind of world we wish to inhabit. The book features: Design from award-winning artists Sagmeister & Walsh Previously unpublished essays by Bjarke Ingels. A convertible dust jacket-poster.
Boom zwischen Krise und Globalisierung

Abstract The 1970s are often interpreted as a period of socio-economic crises caused in part by structural economic changes and globalization. This article suggests a different perspective on the synergies of crises and globalization, which also led to a new boom in many fields. This is exemplified for three fields, where crises are often discussed: everyday life and consumer culture, film and media in general and the role of churches and religion. Generally, the discrepancy between the discourse on crisis and the practices of the majority of the population is stressed here. We should reconsider the construction of new knowledge about the global “limits of growth” in the 1970s in light of the fact that this knowledge only had a marginal impact in many respects.
