Beyond the 'Bottom-Up' and 'Top-Down' Controversy
Following the fast growth of the hydrogen economy, properly modelling the Hydrogen Supply Chain (HSC) becomes pivotal for a successful take-off. While recent review papers focus on the Bottom-Up hydrogen literature, this paper is the first to our knowledge to include Top-down approaches into a complete assessment of the models and mathematical formulations used to answer a variety of hydrogen-related research questions. Based on a thorough analysis of modeling choices and tools found in the HSC literature, we provide a refined classification of research papers through clustering and discriminant analysis. Using original measurement methods, we quantify the difficulty of associating existing modelling choices within a single methodology and identify opportunities and methodological blind spots for the hybridization of HSC-related research approaches.

Bouquets
* The second 'how to' volume from the former Chief of Floral Design at the White House* Illustrated throughout in lavish color, and simple step-by-step instructions Laura Dowling's Bouquets is the second title in the inspiring how-to series and builds on the premise of her successful first book Floral Diplomacy at the White House (2016): the notion that flowers have the potential to change the way people think and feel, creating powerful emotional connections - to nature, to others, to our past and to our dreams. Her collection of bouquets focuses on the positive emotions that bouquets - the most personal and evocative form of floristry - can express. Organized by types of emotions and feelings (e.g, tranquility, charm, nostalgia, romance, drama, sophisticated chic, celebrations and dreams), each chapter presents an array of bouquets and the special stories that inspired them. These bouquets highlight a whole range of styles, techniques and (seasonal) flowers for all settings and occasions. As always, Laura provides expert insights and detailed guidelines to replicate her fabulous bouquets at home.

The Solar Constant
"Seth Muller has made something new. His voice is unique. His imperfections break open to reveal the heart of a geode, a galaxy, a dandelion going to seed on the Southwest wind. Shimmer. Mystery.

But none are untouched by the cosmos, both within and beyond.
