Summary: This review summarizes recent research on the thermal characteristics of hydrogels and their applications in electronic devices. The thermal stability, thermoresponsiveness and thermal conductivity of hydrogels are discussed in detail. Methods such as introducing soluble ions and organic solvents, forming ionogels, modifying polymer chains and incorporating nanomaterials can improve the thermal stability of hydrogels under extreme environments. Moreover, the thermoresponsive capacity of hydrogels is influenced by the composition, concentration, crosslinking degree and hydrophilic/hydrophobic characteristics of copolymers. The thermal conductivity of hydrogels plays a vital role in electronics applications and can be enhanced by adding nanocomposites.

Summary: This study reports the synthesis of a new p-type cubic AgSnSbTe3 crystal, which exhibits an inherently ultra-low lattice thermal conductivity and high electrical conductivity. The softening of the lattice in AgSnSbTe3 is attributed to the generation of antibonding states due to the interaction between Sn(5s)/Ag(4d) and Te(5p) orbitals. Additionally, the compound shows metavalent bonding, which provides highly polarizable bonds with strong lattice anharmonicity while maintaining superior electrical conductivity. The electronic band structure with nearly degenerate valence-band maxima contributes to achieving a high Seebeck coefficient throughout the measured temperature range, leading to a maximum thermoelectric figure of merit of 1.2 at 661 K in the pristine single crystal of AgSnSbTe3.

Summary: Post-occupancy evaluation (POE) is necessary for formulation of future design development after building utilization. This study evaluates the indoor thermal performance, sound pressure level, and illuminance in a multipurpose auditorium by combining zoning and activity-based POE. Evaluation was conducted in three activities: student graduation, theater performance, and public lecture with different clothing preferences. Field measurements were taken for thermal performance, sound pressure level, and illuminance. User perceptions were collected from 171 respondents. The study concludes that chiller setting adjustment should be based on activity characteristics and that combined POE based on zoning and activity can indicate areas of improvement in the auditorium.

Summary: The continuously growing population and urban growth rates are responsible for the sharp rise in energy consumption, which leads to increased CO2 emissions and demand-supply imbalances. The power sector is switching to alternative energy sources, such as renewable energy resources (RES) and battery energy storage systems (BESS), due to an increase in the use of fossil fuels and their shortage. However, the uncertainty associated with the power generation of these resources and their integration into the power grid pose complex challenges, and thus, research on system uncertainties is receiving increasing attention.

Summary: In the past decade, there has been a growing interest in studying energy systems for the combined management of power vectors. Most of the published works focus on finding the optimal design and operations of Multi Energy Systems (MES). However, for newcomers to this field, understanding how to achieve the desired optimization details while controlling computational expenses can be challenging and time-consuming. This paper presents a novel approach to analyzing the existing literature on MES, with the aim of guiding practical development of MES optimization. Through the discussion of six case studies, the authors provide a mathematical formulation as a reference for building the model and emphasize the impact of different aspects on the problem nature and solver selection. In addition, the paper also discusses the different approaches used in the literature for incorporating thermal networks and storage in the optimization of multi-energy systems.
