Alternative Urban Planning for Poor Cities in Africa

Jean-Claude Bolay

The efforts made to plan cities in emerging and developing countries are confronted to multiple issues, especially in small and middle-sized cities, which can be considered as poor through several criteria: socio-economic level of majority of population; l ...

Insiders and Outsiders: Comparing Urban Impressions between Population Groups

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Darshan Santani

There is a growing interest in social and urban computing to employ crowdsourcing as means to gather impressions of urban perception for indoor and outdoor environments. Previous studies have established that reliable estimates of urban perception can be o ...

Mobile Health Applications to Promote Active and Healthy Ageing

Kamiar Aminian

The European population is ageing, and there is a need for health solutions that keep older adults independent longer. With increasing access to mobile technology, such as smartphones and smartwatches, the development and use of mobile health applications ...

Numerical characterization of bump formation in the runaway electron tail

Joan Decker

Runaway electrons are generated in a magnetized plasma when the parallel electric field exceeds a critical value. For such electrons with energies typically reaching tens of MeV, the AbrahamâLorentzâDirac (ALD) radiation force, in reaction to the synch ...

In vivo evaluation of a novel 'diastole-patching' algorithm for the estimation of pulse transit time: advancing the precision in pulse wave velocity measurement

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Orestis Vardoulis

Carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) is the gold standard for the assessment of aortic stiffness. It is calculated by the ratio of pulse transit time (PTT) between two arterial sites and the distance between them. The precision of PTT estimation de ...

Consider a set of probes, called “agents”, who sample, based on opportunistic contacts, a population moving between a set of discrete locations. An example of such agents are Bluetooth probes that sample the visible Bluetooth devices in a population. Based ...

The role of fluctuations in ecological patterns and processes

Andrea Giometto

Fluctuations are ubiquitous in nature and are relevant for nearly every ecological process. The main sources of fluctuations in population abundances are demographic and environmental stochasticity, whose effect on local population dynamics, metapopulation ...

Pervasive Data Analytics for Sustainable Energy Systems

Tri Kurniawan Wijaya

With an ever growing population, global energy demand is predicted to keep increasing. Furthermore, the integration of renewable energy sources into the electricity grid (to reduce carbon emission and humanity's dependency on fossil fuels), complicates eff ...

How green are British cities? Scaling relations and CO2 emissions

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni

How green or environmentally friendly urban areas are in comparison with rural areas is a topic that has received much attention in recent years. This is understandable because urban areas already emit around 70% of the global greenhouse gases. This percen ...

Sample and population exponents of generalized Taylor's law

Andrea Rinaldo, Andrea Giometto, Amos Maritan

Taylor's law (TL) states that the variance V of a nonnegative random variable is a power function of its mean M; i.e., V = aM(b). TL has been verified extensively in ecology, where it applies to population abundance, physics, and other natural sciences. It ...
