ALL POSSIBLE PASTS: Heritage, Simulacra, and Gentrification in Seoul
International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract Urban heritage scholars have often criticized simulacra as ‘bad’ copies that degrade the ‘good’ model of the past through commercialization and gentrification. This article challenges such Platonic dichotomies of good/bad and model/copy, arguing that the binary of good heritage and bad simulacra is flawed because heritage is itself actualized ...

Adhesion forces in asphalt mixtures at nanoscale
CT&F - Ciencia, Tecnología y Futuro, 2017 ABSTRACT The adhesion forces between bitumen and minerals were measured, using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The AFM enables the study of the interactions between two molecules in a same surface or at interfaces and their behavior. In this case, bitumen samples with different properties were placed in contact with AFM modified tips.

Deep Spatially Varying Coefficient Model for Interpolation of Non‐Stationary Meteorological Data
Environmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 6, September 2026.ABSTRACT In spatial statistics, the spatially varying coefficient model (SVCM) is widely applied in the analysis and interpolation of non‐stationary spatial data. By incorporating spatially varying coefficients, the model can capture spatial heterogeneity and provide an attractive interpretation of response‐covariate associations.
