Creating sustainability through Smart City Projects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Smart Cities are a key mechanism for facilitating sustainability – be that in the use of resources (e.g. energy, water), the running of city infrastructure (e.g. transport) or in terms of social policy (e.g. politics).

Dual Aptamers‐Based SETDB1 PROTACs as Effective Anti‐Tumor Strategies for Breast Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study establishes dual‐aptamer PROTACs targeting SETDB1 using a SETDB1‐specific aptamer conjugated to AS1411. The designed PROTACs penetrate cells, recruit MDM2 to degrade SETDB1, and inhibit cancer cell proliferation and migration. Remarkably, they also overcome tamoxifen resistance and enhance CD8+ T cell cytotoxicity, suppressing tumor growth ...

Bay Area Smart Growth Scorecard [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The Bay Area Smart Growth Scorecard is a landmark assessment of the planning policies of all 110 cities and counties of the San Francisco Bay Area.Although a city's current development is apparent to anyone who visits it, the policies that guide a city's

Boosting Fast‐Charging Performance of Ni‐Rich NCM9055 Cathodes with Nb2O5 Dual Functional Modification

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A dual‐functional Nb2O5 modulation strategy is reported to overcome kinetic limitations in Ni‐rich cathodes. The formation of LiNbO3 phase at the grain boundary of the polycrystalline NCM9055 cathode preserves a radially aligned microstructure and establishes fast lithium‐ion pathways.

Smart Cities in a Smart World

open access: yes, 2015
Very often the concept of smart city is strongly related to the flourishing of mobile applications, stressing the technological aspects and a top-down approach of high-tech centralized control systems capable of resolving all the urban issues, completely forgetting the essence of a city with its connected problems.

Data‐Driven Design and Fabrication of Heat‐Resistant, Ultrastrong, Lightweight Aluminum‐Based Entropy Alloy by Additive Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A data‐driven strategy integrating quantum machine learning (QML) and high‐throughput computing overcomes hot‐cracking limitation to design a novel lightweight aluminum‐based entropy alloy for additive manufacturing. The fabrication transforms brittle intermetallics into deformable hierarchical nanostructures, yielding ultrastrong strength (>1 GPa) and

Challenges and opportunities to develop a smart city: A case study of Gold Coast, Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
With the rapid growth of information and communication technologies, there is a growing interest in developing smart cities with a focus on the knowledge economy, use of sensors and mobile technologies to plan and manage cities. The proponents argue that

Smart City Analytics: Ensemble-Learned Prediction of Citizen Home Care

open access: yes, 2017
We present an ensemble learning method that predicts large increases in the hours of home care received by citizens. The method is supervised, and uses different ensembles of either linear (logistic regression) or non-linear (random forests) classifiers.

In‐Wheel Piezoelectric DC Power Generator With Zero Resistive Torque

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this paper, we present a wheel‐shaped direct‐current piezoelectric generator (DC‐PG) that fundamentally overcomes these constraints by producing phase‐stable DC electricity directly from rolling motion. By embedding this system into suitcase wheels, we demonstrated a fully integrated real‐time location tracking system powered solely by mechanical ...

Quantitative Comparison and Effectiveness Evaluation of Striking and Sliding Excitation Methods in Acoustic Identification of Concrete Voids

open access: yesBuildings
The long-term safety and durability of concrete building structures depend largely on their internal quality. Wall voids, as typical hidden defects, directly affect the structural bearing capacity and service life.
