'Energy cells' are essentially Renewable Energy Communities (ECs) in the European context. The system aims at maximizing the utilization of locally generated renewable energy through Electrical Storage (ES) as well as high-electric applications like e‑heating, Heat Pumps (HPs), and E‑Vehicles (EVs). The system is also designed to interact with other energy cells locally, thus, improving the utilization of locally generated energy. A variety of different adjacent energy cells in three countries, Austria (AT), Belgium (BE), and Norway (NO), are analyzed, and the results are used for the development of regional and renewable energy cell systems. This approach aims at developing tailor-made solutions that meet the different local and regional requirements and the electrical energy demand of the observed energy cells. A unique opportunity is created, as the three countries are at varying levels of regional development in the field of energy communities, and the regional requirements and conditions differ significantly. A comprehensive investigation of the technical and economic viability of the ECs in the three regions is conducted on a simulation level. The technical simulation results show an increased self-consumption of individual users and the overall cell in all of the observed testbeds, while the economic analysis shows economic benefits at varying levels in each of the observed testbeds. The implemented R2EC system ascertains both technical and economic viability in the observed testbeds.}, subject = {Energy Cells}, language = {en} } @misc{PalmeKovacevic, author = {Palme, Sebastian and Kovacevic, Selma}, title = {Creating spaces for collaborative learning in Moodle}, abstract = {The current shift in teaching and learning away from the physical classroom to blended and digital learning environments presents many challenges and opportunities for both teachers and learners. A somewhat overlooked aspect of this transition concerns the issue of student collaboration in blended learning situations. Students teaming up to improve their learning process, exchange ideas and achieve learning goals has been an integral part of the higher education experience for many, while also strengthening students social skills. With the physical distancing and accompanying shift to increased online learning settings of the past few years, establishing this collaboration between students has become more and more difficult. Well-conceived digital social learning spaces and opportunities might be a way to compensate for these missed out traditional learning situations with peers in or after class. Going beyond typical group work activities teachers often utilize in their classes, Moodle offers a wide variety of opportunities for teachers to design these digital learning spaces tailored to the specific needs and objectives of their classes and students. Following a student-centred learning paradigm and a conception of the teacher as a designer and enabler of learning opportunities, we want to present a few use cases of Moodle activities, plugins and integrated tools suitable for designing these social spaces online. Among others we would like to showcase possible scenarios for peer assessments, open video conferencing rooms for students with BigBlueButton, collaborative test preparation with StudentQuiz, and connecting learners through a creative usage of the database activity. Picking up these different resources, we hope to motivate and inspire educators to design and roll out collaborative online spaces for their students to enable better teamwork and achieve deeper learning.}, subject = {Moodle}, language = {en} } @article{DilerYanarOezdemiretal., author = {Diler, Abdulkerim and Yanar, Mete and {\"O}zdemir, Veysel Fatih and Aydin, Recep and Kaynar, {\"O}zg{\"u}r and Palangi, Valiollah and Lackner, Maximilian and Ko{\c{c}}yigit, R{\i}dvan}, title = {Effects of Slaughter Age of Holstein Friesian Bulls on Meat Quality: Chemical Composition, Textural Characteristics, Sensory Attributes and Fatty Acid Profile}, series = {Foods}, volume = {12}, journal = {Foods}, number = {1}, doi = {10.3390/foods12010158}, abstract = {This study aimed to investigate the effects of slaughter age (young vs. old), muscle type (Longissimus dorsi (LD), Gluteus medius (GM)) and fat deposits (kidney knob and channel fat, subcutaneous fat, intramuscular fat) on chemical, organoleptic, textural characteristics and fatty acid composition of Holstein Friesian bull meat. For this purpose, the carcasses of 26 Holstein Friesian bulls that had been fattened on the same private farm were assigned to two experimental groups based on their age at slaughter: a young group (YG) (average age: 17.0 ± 1.0 months old) and an old group (OG) (average age: 22.0 ± 1.0 months old). The percentage of crude protein, panel tenderness score, polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) and saturated fatty acid (SFA) content, the PUFA/SFA ratio and the hypocholesterolemic fatty acid (DFA)/hypercholesterolemic fatty acid (OFA) ratio of the bull carcasses decreased significantly with increasing slaughter age. By contrast, the OFA content of the carcasses significantly increased (p < 0.05) with increasing slaughter age. Advanced slaughter age resulted in lower panel tenderness scores. Additionally, the meat of the bulls in the OG was considered to be less healthy because of the less desirable fatty acid composition and nutritional indices, such as the PUFA/SFA and hypocholesterolemic/hypercholesterolemic ratios, compared to the meat from the bulls in the YG. Furthermore, the intramuscular fat and internal fat contained high percentages of PUFA and SFA and high PUFA/SFA and hypocholesterolemic/hypercholesterolemic ratios. Interestingly, the percentage of OFA content in the internal and intramuscular fat tissues decreased with increasing slaughter age. In conclusion, this study provided evidence that slaughter age and muscle and fat type are essential sources of variations in the textural characteristics, sensory panel attributes and fatty acid profile of meat from Holstein Friesian bulls.}, subject = {fatty acid profile}, language = {en} } @article{BağcıkKocErtenetal., author = {Bağc{\i}k, Caner and Ko{\c{c}}, Fisun and Erten, Kadir and Esen, Selim and Palangi, Valiollah and Lackner, Maximilian}, title = {Lentilactobacillus buchneri Preactivation Affects the Mitigation of Methane Emission in Corn Silage Treated with or without Urea}, series = {Fermentation}, volume = {8}, journal = {Fermentation}, number = {12}, doi = {10.3390/fermentation8120747}, abstract = {The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different forms of Lentilactobacillus buchneri on the in vitro methane production, fermentation characteristics, nutritional quality, and aerobic stability of corn silage treated with or without urea. The following treatments were applied prior to ensiling: (1) no urea treatment and LB; (2) no urea treatment+freeze dried LB; (3) no urea treatment+preactivated LB; (4) with urea treatment+no LB; (5) with urea treatment+freeze dried LB; (6) with urea treatment+preactivated. LB was applied at a rate of 3 × 108 cfu/kg on a fresh basis, while urea was applied at a rate of 1\% on the basis of dry matter. Data measured at different time points were analyzed according to a completely randomized design, with a 2 × 3 × 5 factorial arrangement of treatments, while the others were analyzed with a 2 × 3 factorial arrangement. Preactivated LB was more effective than freeze-dried LB in reducing silage pH, ammonia nitrogen, cell-wall components, yeast count, and carbon dioxide production, as well as increasing lactic acid and residual water-soluble carbohydrate and aerobic stability (p < 0.0001). A significant reduction in the methane ratio was observed after 24 h and 48 h incubation with preactivated forms of LB (p < 0.001). The results indicated that preactivated LB combined with urea improved fermentation characteristics, nutritional quality, and aerobic stability and reduced the methane ratio of corn silages.}, subject = {gas production}, language = {en} } @article{CoşkuntunaLacknerErtenetal., author = {Co{\c{s}}kuntuna, Levend and Lackner, Maximilian and Erten, Kadir and G{\"u}l, Sevilay and Palangi, Valiollah and Ko{\c{c}}, Fisun and Esen, Selim}, title = {Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Potential of Lavender Meal and Essential Oil for Dairy Cows}, series = {Fermentation}, volume = {9}, journal = {Fermentation}, number = {3}, doi = {10.3390/fermentation9030253}, abstract = {This research aims to evaluate the potential of lavender meal (LM) and lavender essential oil (LEO) to mitigate methane emissions by dairy cows. Locally grown lavender was collected fresh for this purpose, and its oil was extracted using the cold-press method. The resultant LEO and LM and whole lavender (WL) were added to dairy cow concentrate feed at 0\%, 0.05\%, and 0.10\%, and their effects on vitro gas production values and gas concentrations were subsequently assessed. Out of the 30 bioactive compounds isolated from LEO, linalool and linalyl acetate were the most common—accounting for 70.4\% of the total. The lavender dose had a significant influence on gas production for up to 12 h. No significant variations were found across the lavender forms when gas kinetics, in vitro degradability, and predicted energy values were compared. The addition of WL to the concentrate feed of dairy cows produced the greatest quantities of methane, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide, whereas LEO resulted in the lowest values. In contrast, no significant difference in ammonia content was found across the various lavender forms added into dairy cow concentrate feed. The results of this research suggest that adding 0.05-0.10\% LM and LEO to concentrate feed may decrease greenhouse gas emissions from dairy cows.}, subject = {lavender}, language = {en} } @article{BesharatiPalangiNiazifaretal., author = {Besharati, Maghsoud and Palangi, Valiollah and Niazifar, Masoumeh and Esen, Selim and Lackner, Maximilian}, title = {A Comprehensive Analysis of Cinnamon, Flaxseed, and Lemon Seed Essential Oils' Effects on In Vitro Gas Formation and Nutrient Degradability in Diets}, series = {Fermentation}, volume = {9}, journal = {Fermentation}, number = {6}, doi = {10.3390/fermentation9060504}, abstract = {This study aimed to assess the impact of essential oils (EOs) on in vitro gas formation and the degradability of dairy and beef cattle diets. This study also aimed to investigate the effects of different types of EOs on nutrient utilization and rumen microbial activity. The current study was conducted using a fully randomized design consisting of eight experimental treatments, including two control treatments without any additives, and treatments with cinnamon essential oil (CEO), flaxseed essential oil (FEO), and lemon seed essential oil (LEO) at a concentration of 60 mg/kg fresh mass. Two control treatments were used, one with alfalfa silage and dairy concentrate (DC, CON-DC) and the other with alfalfa silage and fattening concentrate (FC, CON-FC). Gas formation, dry matter (DM) digestibility, crude protein (CP) digestibility, effective degradability (ED), and soluble fractions of DM and organic matter (OM) were evaluated. CEO had a substantial effect on gas formation (p < 0.05). When EOs were added to the diets, they increased dry matter digestibility after 24 h of incubation as compared to control treatments. After 24 h of incubation, FCCEO and FCFEO had the highest CP digestibility among the diets. FCLEO considerably enhanced ED, as well as the soluble fraction of DM (a) at a passage rate of 2\% per hour. Treatment with FCCEO resulted in a significant increase in soluble fractions compared to the control diets. At a passage rate of 2\% h, DCCEO had the maximum ED value. When EOs were introduced to the diet, they dramatically decreased the insoluble portion of CP (b). Compared to the control treatments, gas production was significantly lower in the presence of LEO (FCLEO; p < 0.05). The addition of EOs to cattle diets may increase nutrient utilization and enhance rumen microbial activity. EOs extracted from lemon seeds (at a dose of 60 mg/kg of diet) lowered gas production in both dairy cattle and fattening diets.}, subject = {Digestibility}, language = {en} }
