High Temperature Water Electrolysis Using Metal Supported Solid Oxide Electrolyser Cells (SOEC)
No full textMetal supported cells as developed according to the DLR SOFC concept by applying plasma deposition technologies were investigated for use as solid oxide electrolyser cells (SOEC) for high temperature steam electrolysis. Cells consisting of a porous ferritic steel support, a diffusion barrier layer, a Ni/YSZ hydrogen electrode, a YSZ electrolyte and a LSCF oxygen electrode were electrochemically characterised by means of i-V characteristics and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements including a long-term test over 2000 hours. The cell voltage during electrolysis operation at a current density of -1.0 A cm-2 was 1.28 V at an operating temperature of 850 °C and 1.4 V at 800 °C. A long-term test run over 2000 hours with a steam content of 43% at 800 °C and a current density of -0.3 A cm-2 showed a degradation rate of 3.2% per 1000 hours. The impedance spectra revealed a significantly enhanced polarisation resistance during electrolysis operation compared to fuel cell operation which was mainly attributed to the hydrogen electrode

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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

Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Quantifying Functional Links between Brain and Heartbeat Dynamics in the Multifractal Domain: A Preliminary Analysis
Full text linkQuantification of brain-heart interplay (BHI) has mainly been performed in the time and frequency domains. However, such functional interactions are likely to involve nonlinear dynamics associated with the two systems. To this extent, in this preliminary study we investigate the functional coupling between multifractal properties of Electroencephalography (EEG) and Heart Rate Variability (HRV) series using a channel- and time scale-wise maximal information coefficient analysis. Experimental results were gathered from 24 healthy volunteers undergoing a resting state and a cold-pressure test, and suggest that significant changes between the two experimental conditions might be associated with nonlinear quantifiers of the multifractal spectrum. Particularly, major brain-heart functional coupling was associated with the secondorder cumulant of the multifractal spectrum. We conclude that a functional nonlinear relationship between brain- and heartbeat-related multifractal sprectra exist, with higher values associated with the resting state

No full textAppropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
