The unprecedented 2017-2018 stratospheric smoke event : Decay phase and aerosol properties observed with the EARLINET
(2019-12-13)
Six months of stratospheric aerosol observations with the European Aerosol Research Lidar Network (EARLINET) from August 2017 to January 2018 are presented. The decay phase of an unprecedented, record-breaking stratospheric ...
A Safety-Case Approach to the Ethics of Autonomous Vehicles
(2019-12-13)
Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) have significant ethical and safety implications. Questions of informed consent and risk acceptance are of primary importance, as is an explicit identification of the ethical principles underlying ...
The Universal Cloud and Aerosol Sounding System (UCASS): a low-cost miniature optical particle counter for use in dropsonde or balloon-borne sounding systems
(2019-12-13)
A low-cost miniaturized particle counter has been developed by The University of Hertfordshire (UH) for the measurement of aerosol and droplet concentrations and size distributions. The Universal Cloud and Aerosol Sounding ...
Addressing Obesity in Stevenage, Hertfordshire: A Consultation with Young People
(University of Hertfordshire, 2019-12-13)
Public Health England have identified that almost a quarter of children are overweight when they start primary school, which increases to a third when they leave in year 6 aged 10-11 years. This has implications for young ...
Headspace Oxygen Concentration Measurement for Pharmaceutical Glass Bottles in Open-path Optical Environment Using TDLAS/WMS
(2019-12-10)
Accurate measurement of oxygen concentration for pharmaceutical glass bottles is of great significance to ensure the asepsis of medicine and stability of ingredients. With merits of high sensitivity, low cost, non-contact, ...
[C I](1–0) and [C I](2–1) in Resolved Local Galaxies
(2019-12-10)
We present resolved [C I] line intensities of 18 nearby galaxies observed with the SPIRE FTS spectrometer on the Herschel Space Observatory. We use these data along with resolved CO line intensities from J_up = 1 to 7 to ...
The Hassle of Housework: : Digitalisation and the Commodification of Domestic Labour
(2019-12-10)
This article revisits materialist second wave feminist debates about domestic labour in the context of digitalisation. Using a differentiated typology of labour it looks at how the tasks involved in housework have undergone ...
Design Patterns to Build Large Resilient and Predictable Systems
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-12-09)
Building large resilient and computer systems can be challenging, especially when temporal predictability is also required. Large resilient systems are typically composed of different networking technologies, for example, ...
Work in Progress – Establishing a Master Program in Cyber Physical Systems: Basic Findings and Future Perspectives
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-12-09)
This paper reports on the basic findings and future perspectives of a capacity building project funded by the European Union. The International Master of Science on Cyber Physical Systems (MS@CPS) is a collaborative project ...
Intercomparison of Multiple UV-LIF Spectrometers using the Aerosol Challenge Simulator
(2019-12-09)
Measurements of primary biological aerosol particles (PBAPs) have been conducted worldwide using ultraviolet light-induced fluorescence (UV-LIF) spectrometers. However, how these instruments detect and respond to known ...
