Towards an evolutionary model of city sustainability

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Darren Robinson, Adil Rasheed, Nataliya Filchakova

In part stimulated by the computer game industry, reasonable progress has been made in the dynamic modelling of urban growth and land use change. However, sustainability considerations in this work remain to be addressed. Yet the environmental impact of ci ...

Urban District Energy Futures: A Dynamic Material Flow Analysis (MFA) Model

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Darren Robinson, Nataliya Filchakova

With more than half the world population now urbanised, urban metabolism – defined as the throughput and transformation of material and energy flows to sustain human life in urban settlements – is responsible for consuming the majority of global resources ...

a-plane GaN grown on r-plane sapphire substrates by hydride vapor phase epitaxy

Nicolas Grandjean, Raphaël Butté, Denis Martin, Tiankai Zhu

Thin a-plane (1 1 2 0) GaN layers have been grown on r-plane (1 1 0 2) sapphire substrates by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE), using either a single-step high-temperature (HT) growth or a two-step growth method similar to that of metal organic vapor pha ...

Conditions to be met for the implementation of urban monitoring systems in western Africa

Alexandre Repetti, Marc Soutter, Amadou Sall

Rapid population growth and city expansion, along with scarce resources for planning and management, are widely shared characteristics of southern cities. The System for Monitoring Urban Functionalities (SMURF) has been designed and developed for the city ...

Diffusion-Time Distribution Analysis Reveals Characteristic Ligand-Dependent Interaction Patterns of Nuclear Receptors in Living Cells

Horst Vogel, Horst Pick, Paulina Izewska, Hanna Jankevics

Nuclear receptors initiate transcription, interact with regulatory proteins, and are influenced by hormones, drugs, and pollutants. Herein, we discover ligand-specific mobility patterns of human estrogen receptor-a (ER) in living cells using diffusion-time ...

Development of a real-time PCR method for quantification of the three genera Dehalobacter, Dehalococcoides, and Desulfitobacterium in microbial communities

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Katia Szynalski

We developed standard curves based on plasmids containing a 16S rRNA gene of a member of one of the three genera Dehalobacter, Desulfitobacterium, and Dehalococcoides. A large difference in amplification efficiency between the standard curves was observed ...

Picosecond studies of the intramolecular relaxation processes in isolated C60 and C70 molecules

Majed Chergui, Benoît Marie Joseph Deveaud, Jean-Daniel Ganière, Victoria Ciulin

Time-resolved fluorescence spectra for C60 mols. embedded in Ne and Ar matrixes and C70 in Ne matrixes were recorded using a synchroscan streak camera. In the case of C60, the decay times of the S1 state are identical for all fluorescence bands confirming ...
