TL;DR: The main focus is on the implications of dependencies on the structure of the optimal CBM policy, and a review of the advances made with respect to CBM is linked to practice by providing real-life examples, thereby stressing current gaps in the literature.

TL;DR: The newly developed fibril-reinforced poroviscoelastic swelling (FPVES) model for articular cartilage can simultaneously account for the reaction force during swelling, confined compression, indentation and unconfined compression as well as the lateral deformation during unconfining compression.

TL;DR: In this paper, the experimental introduction of biogas plants in Denmark since the 1970s is reviewed, and the authors argue that three factors have been important for the current status of Biogas Plants in Denmark: the Danish government applied a bottom-up strategy and stimulated interaction and learning between various social groups.
Abstract: With 20 centralised plants and over 35 farmscale plants, the digestion of manure and organic waste is a well established technological practice in Denmark. These plants did not emerge without a struggle. Moreover, no new centralised plants have been established since 1998 and the development of farmscale plants has slowed down. This article reviews the experimental introduction of biogas plants in Denmark since the 1970s. We argue that three factors have been important for the current status of biogas plants in Denmark. First, the Danish government applied a bottom-up strategy and stimulated interaction and learning between various social groups. Second, a dedicated social network and a long-term stimulation enabled a continuous development of biogas plants without interruptions until the late 1990s. Third, specific Danish circumstances have been beneficial, including policies for decentralised CHP, the existence of district heating systems, the implementation of energy taxes in the late 1980s and the preference of Danish farmers to cooperate in small communities. The current setback in biogas plants is mainly caused by a shift in energy and environmental policies and limited availability of organic waste.

TL;DR: It is shown that the spinodal liquid-liquid demixing that occurs during drying is responsible for the observed morphologies and the model predicts an increasing feature size and decreasing fullerene concentration in the polymer matrix with increasing drying time in accordance with experimental observations and device performance.
Abstract: The performance of solution processed polymer:fullerene thin film photovoltaic cells is largely determined by the nanoscopic and mesoscopic morphology of these blends that is formed during the drying of the layer. Although blend morphologies have been studied in detail using a variety of microscopic, spectroscopic, and scattering techniques and a large degree of control has been obtained, the current understanding of the processes involved is limited. Hence, predicting the optimized processing conditions and the corresponding device performance remains a challenge. We present an experimental and modeling study on blends of a small band gap diketopyrrolopyrrole- quinquethiophene alternating copolymer (PDPP5T) and [6,6]-phenyl-C 71-butyric acid methyl ester ([70]PCBM) cast from chloroform solution. The model uses the homogeneous Flory-Huggins free energy of the multicomponent blend and accounts for interfacial interactions between (locally) separated phases, based on physical properties of the polymer, fullerene, and solvent. We show that the spinodal liquid-liquid demixing that occurs during drying is responsible for the observed morphologies. The model predicts an increasing feature size and decreasing fullerene concentration in the polymer matrix with increasing drying time in accordance with experimental observations and device performance. The results represent a first step toward a predictive model for morphology formation. © 2013 American Chemical Society.
