Evaluation of the vapor hydrolysis of lithium aluminum hydride for mobile fuel cell applications by Elizabeth Ashton, William Oakley, Paul Brack, Sandie Dann

“…Carrying out the vapor hydrolysis reaction in a glove box in the absence of CO2 indicated that the hydroxide derivative of the LDH, [LiAl2(OH)6]OH·2H2O, could be formed instead, but the water content was even more significant, equating to 17 % of the carried weight. …”

Forecasting summer-time overheating in UK homes using time series models by Matej Gustin

“…This research led to five main findings: (i) linear AutoRegressive forecasting models with eXogenous inputs (ARX), i.e. weather forecasts, can provide satisfactory accuracies during heatwaves for time horizons up to 72 h ahead; (ii) more complex semi-parametric Generalized Additive Models (GAMs) were not capable of significantly improving the forecasting accuracy at forecasting horizons over 6 h (iii) logistic GAMs can predict the window opening state with adequate discrimination, however, integration of the window state into forecasting models did not improve their accuracy; (iv) forecasting models could be usefully incorporated within an iHHWS, however, the warning lead-time should be constrained to less than 24 h in order to guarantee high confidence in such a system; (v) a weighted metric such as the Cumulative Heat Index (CHI) could further reduce the risks of false or missed warnings, increasing the dependability of the iHHWS.…”
