Classical dynamics on graphs
We consider the classical evolution of a particle on a graph by using a
time-continuous Frobenius-Perron operator which generalizes previous
propositions. In this way, the relaxation rates as well as the chaotic
properties can be defined for the time-continuous classical dynamics on graphs.
These properties are given as the zeros of some periodic-orbit zeta functions.
We consider in detail the case of infinite periodic graphs where the particle
undergoes a diffusion process. The infinite spatial extension is taken into
account by Fourier transforms which decompose the observables and probability
densities into sectors corresponding to different values of the wave number.
The hydrodynamic modes of diffusion are studied by an eigenvalue problem of a
Frobenius-Perron operator corresponding to a given sector. The diffusion
coefficient is obtained from the hydrodynamic modes of diffusion and has the
Green-Kubo form. Moreover, we study finite but large open graphs which converge
to the infinite periodic graph when their size goes to infinity. The lifetime
of the particle on the open graph is shown to correspond to the lifetime of a
system which undergoes a diffusion process before it escapes.Comment: 42 pages and 8 figure
Combined analysis of data from two granddaughter designs: A simple strategy for QTL confirmation and increasing experimental power in dairy cattle
A joint analysis of five paternal half-sib Holstein families that were part of two different granddaughter designs (ADR- or Inra-design) was carried out for five milk production traits and somatic cell score in order to conduct a QTL confirmation study and to increase the experimental power. Data were exchanged in a coded and standardised form. The combined data set (JOINT-design) consisted of on average 231 sires per grandsire. Genetic maps were calculated for 133 markers distributed over nine chromosomes. QTL analyses were performed separately for each design and each trait. The results revealed QTL for milk production on chromosome 14, for milk yield on chromosome 5, and for fat content on chromosome 19 in both the ADR- and the Inra-design (confirmed within this study). Some QTL could only be mapped in either the ADR- or in the Inra-design (not confirmed within this study). Additional QTL previously undetected in the single designs were mapped in the JOINT-design for fat yield (chromosome 19 and 26), protein yield (chromosome 26), protein content (chromosome 5), and somatic cell score (chromosome 2 and 19) with genomewide significance. This study demonstrated the potential benefits of a combined analysis of data from different granddaughter designs

Energy plus standard in buildings constructed by housing associations?
6th Dubrovnik Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy Water and Environmental Systems, SDEWES 2011In order to achieve national, European and international energy goals, energy efficiency strategies in the building sector have to be implemented. The passive house standard and low energy standards are already successfully established in single dwelling houses. These high performance standards are starting to penetrate into the sector of housing associations. A case study about an apartment building constructed by a housing association is presented here. It describes the monitoring concept and the results of the 1st year of monitoring. Depending on the definition of the zero energy building standard (extent of loads included in the balancing), the building could be classified as an energy plus building or as a building, which uses more energy, than is supplied by on-site generation. If the building's total energy use (including user specific loads) is defined as load, only 34.5% of these loads were provided by the net energy output of the PV system. If only the heating energy demand is defined as load, the PV system even yielded a surplus of 45.6% of the energy load.Energie-Umweltmanagemen
