Networks and Fragments: An Integrative Approach for Planning Urban Green Infrastructures in Dense Urban Areas

open access: yesLand
The reintroduction of natural components into the urban environment has several benefits for the adaptation of urban environments. The urban green infrastructure (UGI) approach makes it possible to develop greening programs on a sound scientific basis ...

Leveraging VGI Integrated with 3D Spatial Technology to Support Urban Intensification in Melbourne, Australia

open access: yesUrban Planning, 2016
High density residential development in metropolitan Melbourne, where contradictory imperatives of neighbourhood character and urban intensification play important roles, remains an uncertain practice. One key issue for plan implementation is the lack of

The compactness of spatial structure in Chinese cities: measurement, clustering patterns and influencing factors

open access: yesEcosystem Health and Sustainability, 2020
Rapid urbanization in China has led to an excessive urban expansion of built-up areas, which makes quantitative research on compact city important. We adopted density and the degree of mixed land use to measure the compactness of 160 Chinese cities ...

Atomic‐Scale Insights into Yttrium‐Induced Grain Boundary Structure Modification in Al2O3

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Using advanced STEM characterization combined with NNP‐based MCMD calculations, it is revealed that Y segregation at ∑13 Al2O3 GB involves not only simple substitution of Y for Al atoms but also structural adaptation with a change in GB atomic density, leading to minimized excess volume and lowest GB energy.

TP53BP2 Promotes Placental Autophagy and Preeclampsia via G9a and DNMT1 Cooperatively Modulating E2F1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
G9a, and DNA Methyltransferase1 (DNMT1) cooperatively modulates E2F1 on the promoter of tumor suppressor p53‐binding protein 2 (TP53BP2) increased autophagy in preeclampsia. TP53BP2 promotes autophagy in trophoblasts through DNA methylation and H3K9me2‐mediated transcriptional regulation.

The breathability of compact cities

open access: yesUrban Climate, 2015
Abstract Breathability in dense building arrays with packing densities similar to those of typical European cities is investigated using laboratory measurements and numerical simulations. We focus on arrays made up by regularly spaced square buildings forming a network of streets with right-angle intersections.

Measurement and Spatial Distribution of Urban Land Use Compactness in Chaoyang District of Beijing, China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
China is in the process of rapid urbanization, and wise land use is critical to the long-term sustainbility of Chinese cities. Promotion of a compact city is typically believed to be a helpful for sustainable land use management.
