Journal ArticleDOI
Reciprocity of weighted networks
TL;DR: This work introduces a general approach to the reciprocity of weighted networks, and defines quantities and null models that consistently capture empirical reciprocity patterns at different structural levels and shows that, counter-intuitively, previous reciprocity measures are uninformative.
Journal ArticleDOI
The rebound effect: An evolutionary perspective
TL;DR: In this paper, a thermodynamic-evolutionary theoretical framework was proposed to explain the rebound effect in energy conservation policies that aim to reduce energy consumption through energy efficiency development, and the authors showed that higher complexity, due to a greater energy density rate, counteracts the positive effects of energy efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the energy efficiency evolution in the European road freight transport sector
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate energy efficiency in the European freight transport sector over three decades, according to a variety of indicators, methodologies and databases, and show that energy efficiency evaluation is generally subject to misinterpretation and distortion with regard to the methods and data source adopted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the environmental sustainability of a micro CHP system fueled by low-temperature geothermal and solar energy
Franco Ruzzenenti,Mirko Bravi,Duccio Tempesti,Enrica Salvatici,Giampaolo Manfrida,Riccardo Basosi +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the environmental sustainability of a small combined heat and power (CHP) plant operating through an organic Rankine Cycle (ORC), where the heat sources of the system are from geothermal energy at low temperature (90-95°C) and solar energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complex Networks and Symmetry I: A Review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors established various connections between complex networks and symmetry and proposed a definition of stochastic symmetry based on graph ensembles and use it to review the main results of network theory from an unusual perspective.
