Roll‐to‐Roll Processable EC/TC Hybrid Smart Windows Driven by a Bidirectional Dual‐Chromic Polymer Electrolyte

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We present a scalable EC/TC hybrid smart window using a DCPE that enables tunable solar modulation (ΔTsol:15–43%), fast electrochromic switching (<90 s), and strong thermal blocking (10–14°C reduction). HPMC improves thermal stability, while an optimized ISL enhances EC performance.

Local climate zone mapping: a case study in Belgium [PDF]

GEOBIA 2016: Solutions and synergies, 2016
Classifying a city according to the local climate zone (LCZ) scheme can provide insights into the thermal issue of urban planning. The different zones of the LCZ scheme feature particular morphological properties in terms of terrain roughness class, aspect ratio, sky view factor, surface admittance, etc.

Negotiating in a Foreign Land: Understanding the Curious Interactions Between Intracellular Mitochondria and Internalized Nanoparticles

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Therapeutic nano‐drug delivery systems interact with cellular mitochondria in a multitude of ways. While the complexity of such interactions disrupts the mitochondrial electron transport chain and increases reactive oxygen species production, thereby contributing to nanoparticle toxicity, they also present unique theranostic opportunities in diseases ...

Integrating satellite and street-level images for local climate zone mapping

International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, 2023
Timely and accurate local climate zone (LCZ) classification maps are valuable for urban climate studies. The integration of remote sensing and street-level images is promising to produce high-quality LCZ maps, since the former can efficiently capture the information of landscapes on a large-scale while the latter include ground-level details.
