we derive error estimates in the appropriate norms, for the streamlinediffusion (sd) finite element methods for steady state, energy dependent,fermi equation in three space dimensions. these estimates yield optimal convergencerates due to the maximal available regularity of the exact solution.high order sd method together with implicit integration are used. the formulationis strongly consistent...

in this work the general aspect and the behavior of a simplified theoretical model for studying mass isolated systems are investigated. the model is in the form of a dual mass model in a single storey arrangement. to find damping ratio and natural frequency of the system, non-classical eigen analysis has been performed on the model. later, time integration analyses subjected to different earthq...

The paper highlights shortcomings in the contribution of qualitative social sciences and humanities (SSH) research to tackling challenges connected with energy climate change. These are illustrated based on analysis data gathered relation EU (e.g. Horizon 2020; FP7) European national funding policy. finds that a techno-economic imaginary continues dominate systems governs expectations its condu...

This paper considers the development of ‘green’ jobs in Scotland where the government has sought to develop renewable and sustainable energy industries and associated employment. It analyses the government employment forecasts/projections and compares them to the actual results, considering the reasons for the lower actual job creation. While there are some specific skills development initiativ...
