The most recent heatwave in Brussels (from 30 June to 2 July) led to a 15% increase in electricity consumption, according to the region's DSO.
Assuming that 🍦 production is only a marginal component of this, demineralisation and building insulation measures should be at the forefront of action.

Prototyping an AI-powered Tool for Energy Efficiency in New Zealand Homes
Residential buildings contribute significantly to energy use, health outcomes, and carbon emissions. In New Zealand, housing quality has historically been poor, with inadequate insulation and inefficient heating contributing to widespread energy hardship. Recent reforms, including the Warmer Kiwi Homes program, Healthy Homes Standards, and H1 Building Code upgrades, have delivered health and comfort improvements, yet challenges persist. Many retrofits remain partial, data on household performan…

De trias energetica leidt niet alleen in Nederland tot tegenvallende resultaten... Tijd voor een nieuwe versie: fossiel (aardolie, aardgas en kolen) vervangen door electrificatie en warmte. Isoleren: tot het Pareto optimale niveau. Daar zou KGG/EZK met z'n economische achtergrond toch heel erg warm voor moeten lopen...

The "Fabric First" Trap: Decades Of Studies Show Electrification Wins Every Time - CleanTechnica
Over-insulating buildings through “fabric first” wastes money and delays decarbonization; electrification with moderate insulation gets much bigger results.

Interesting day ahead, discussing the societal costs of various forms of zero-emission heating for homes, including insulation, installations, and energy infrastructure. With heat pump suppliers, and gas and electricity grid operators.
It's a massive operation, so well-founded decisions are important.

Hot-Ion Modes in Globus-M2 and Saturation of Energy Confinement Time Scaling in Spherical Tokamaks with Toroidal Magnetic Field of 1 T and Above
In a small spherical tokamak with minor radius of 0.22 m and toroidal magnetic field of 1 T, it is possible to heat ions of a sufficiently dense plasma to an extremely high temperature up to 50 million Kelvin. To do this, it is necessary to transfer a sufficiently large torque to stabilize ion-scale turbulence and achieve ion heat transport at neoclassical level reaching extremely low values of plasma collisionality. It is also necessary to ensure good thermal insulation of electrons, which is …

Experimental and numerical study on current distribution in parallel co-wound no-insulation coils
No-insulation (NI) coils are known for their high thermal stability and self-protection features due to turn-to-turn contacts. Parallel co-winding is a promising method to reduce the charging delay of NI coils while maintaining thermal stability, demonstrating significant potential for applications in fusion and other large-scale or high-field magnets. The non-uniform current distribution among parallel superconducting tapes in parallel co-wound NI coils may lead to thermal and mechanical stabi…

The Sex-Dependent Effects of Psychedelics on Myelination in APOE4 Mice
Several studies have linked myelin abnormalities with neuropsychiatric disorders; others have implicated psychedelics as a potential therapeutic for such conditions. One risk factor for these demyelinating disorders is a mutation in the Apolipoprotein E gene known as APOE4. This variant impedes the cholesterol regulation of oligodendrocytes responsible for the myelination, or insulation, of neurons when compared to the wild-type phenotype. In this work, I advance knowledge of cellular pathways …

Mott Criticality as the Confinement Transition of a Pseudogap-Mott Metal
The phenomenon of Mott insulation involves the localization of itinerant electrons due to strong local repulsion. Upon doping, a pseudogap (PG) phase emerges - marked by selective gapping of the Fermi surface without conventional symmetry breaking in spin or charge channels. A key challenge is understanding how quasiparticle breakdown in the Fermi liquid gives rise to this enigmatic state, and how it connects to both the Mott insulating and superconducting phases. Here, we develop a renormaliza…

Extreme Thermal Insulation in Nano-Bubble Wrap Materials
Achieving ultra-low thermal conductivity under ambient conditions is a fundamental challenge constrained by classical heat transport limits and material design trade-offs. Here, we introduce a new class of nano-bubble wrap architectures that achieve exceptionally low thermal conductivity by integrating nanoscale gas confinement with atomically thin, weakly coupled van der Waals solids. Using scalable patterning of 2D monolayers into periodic nano-bubbles and nano-wrinkles, we construct material…

Ultra-thin normal-shear-coupled metabarrier for low-frequency underwater sound insulation
Underwater noise pollution caused by anthropogenic activities, such as offshore wind farms, significantly affects marine life, hindering the intra- and inter-specific interactions of many aquatic species. A common strategy to mitigate these effects is to enclose the noise source within a physical barrier to achieve acceptable noise levels in the surrounding region. Underwater barriers typically achieve noise reduction through sound absorption based on locally resonant systems (e.g., foam and bu…

Ultra-lightweight multi-functional gyroid-based metamaterial for simultaneous sound insulation, vibration suppression, and impact mitigation in all directions

Ultra-lightweight multi-functional gyroid-based metamaterial for simultaneous sound insulation, vibration suppression, and impact mitigation in all directions
Multi-functional materials are increasingly essential in many applications due to their ability to serve multiple purposes, simultaneously. Metamaterials can offer tailored functionality based on carefully designed tessellating basic building blocks, or unit cells, in space. These unit cells are most commonly designed for a single objective, for example, to mitigate an impact, insulate sound, or dampen vibrations. However, a metamaterial that can mitigate impact, attenuate elastic vibrations, i…

Discovering correlations between metal foam thermal characteristics and non-Fourier behavior
Due to their low density and large specific surface area, metal foams are increasingly used as cellular materials that combine excellent structural and thermal properties. Their cellular structure makes them particularly suitable for use in heat exchangers, insulation, and fire protection layers. The heat transport that takes place within them is a complex phenomenon characterized by the simultaneous presence of heat conduction, heat transfer, and heat radiation, making their modeling a signifi…
