Fast emulator of changes in crop yields at different levels of global warming
No full textThis is the Online Supplement to the following publication: Ostberg, S., Schewe, J., Childers, K.,
and Frieler, K.: Changes in crop yields and their variability at different levels of global warming, Earth System
Dynamics, 9, 2018. The Supplement contains a number of additional figures as well as the emulator coefficients
needed to apply the emulators presented in the paper to derive yield changes for any given pair of global mean
temperature change (GMT) and atmospheric CO2 concentration (pCO2). See readme.pdf for details.</p

Human displacements, fatalities, and economic damages linked to remotely observed floods (FLODIS)
No full textFLODIS links estimates of flood-induced human displacements, fatalities, and economic damages to flooded areas observed through remote sensing. The repository contains the two final FLODIS datasets for displacement, fatalities and damages. Additionally, geocoded IDMC data on displacement between 2008 and 2021 is provided, which can be linked with other hazard inventories.

What Constitutes a Service on the Web?
No full textThere are many approaches to modelling and development of service-oriented systems, but there is still no convincing answer to what a (software) service is. In this chapter, we discuss the various attempts to develop a theory of services, identify aspects that have already been addressed and extract gaps. This leads us to propose the BDCM2 framework capturing behaviour, description, contracting, monitoring and mediation. For the behavioural model, we refer to the two-layer model of Abstract State Services (AS2s) capturing functional aspects of data-intensive Web services. The model of service mediators permits building complex applications, in which parts are realised by services. Furthermore, we highlight the decisive role of service ontologies for supporting the location of services as well as the capture of contractual aspects by means of service-level agreements (SLAs). Finally, we conclude that a contract is only as good as the means to monitor the agreements. While part of the research has already reached a promising level of maturity, some aspects are still in an infant state
A novel 3D parametrization approach for topology optimization of rollbonded cooling plates
No full textElectric mobility depends on batteries, which typically require a thermal management system. Those systems are often realized as sheet metal plates with integrated channel structures. Rollbonding technology is one of the most promising technologies to produce such cooling plates due to the competitive cost structure in combination with its unmatched design freedom. However, the design of a cooling plate manufactured using rollbonding is challenging. Such a design requires thermal and hydraulic targets to be considered while manufacturing constraints must be satisfied. Due to the given design freedom and the conflicting targets manual design of cooling plates is challenging and requires significant development time and effort. Topology optimization is a popular method for automated and optimal design of components.In this paper, the authors present a strategy to design rollbonded cooling plates by topology optimization, taking thermal, hydraulic, and manufacturing requirements into account. State-of-the-art methods usually consider channel shapes with rectangular cross-sections, ignoring the effects of realistically curved channel cross-sections as they result from the manufacturing technology. The authors present a novel parametrization strategy, considering the 3D channel shape in a realistic manner. The mathematical formulation of the novel modelling approach is shown and validated based on a small, simplified test case. The methodology is implemented into a custom, solver-agnostic framework and coupled with commercial Finite Element software
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
