Traffic Demand Management Tools in Small and Medium-Sized Cities

JTTTP - JOURNAL OF TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT THEORY AND PRACTICE, 2020
The function of the public urban and suburban passenger transport (PUPT) system as a transport activity is to provide transportation services in a certain urban area. By using new solutions in traffic demand management in small and medium-sized cities, which do not have an efficient PUPT system, in combination with paratransit systems, we can ...

Clinical, Histologic, and Serological Predictors of Renal Function Loss in Lupus Nephritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Kidney survival is the ultimate goal in lupus nephritis (LN) management, but long‐term predictors remain inadequately studied, requiring long‐term follow‐up. This study aimed to identify baseline and early longitudinal predictors of kidney survival in the Accelerating Medicines Partnership LN longitudinal cohort.

Why Small and Medium-Sized Cities Matters?

In a rapidly urbanizing and warming world, natural hazard resilience is a pressing challenge. This is particularly true in Small and Medium Sized Cities (SMSC) where significant urban growth is projected through the mid-century, where there may be limited capacity to increase resilience and less adaptive capacity to respond to cascading and complex ...

Semiconducting Polymers Post‐Functionalized With Ureido‐Pyrimidinone for Robust Stretchable Transistors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The design of intrinsically robust stretchable semiconducting polymers was achieved through OTBS‐mediated post‐functionalization of PDPP2T side chains with UPy units, generating dual hydrogen‐bonding motifs comprising weaker urethane linkages and strong quadruple UPy interactions along the long alkyl side chain, which is crucial for achieving desirable
