Urban logistics & environment

open access: yes, 2018
Η βιωσιμότητα της αστικής εφοδιαστικής είναι ένα σημαντικό ζήτημα για τις ταχέως αναπτυσσόμενες πόλεις σε όλο τον κόσμο. Παρόλο που πολλές πόλεις έχουν αναπτύξει στρατηγικές για την αποτελεσματικότερη και ασφαλέστερη μετακίνηση των ανθρώπων στο αστικό περιβάλλον, έχει δοθεί πολύ λιγότερη προσοχή στη σημασία της παράδοσης αγαθών στους ανθρώπους στην ...

High Light Utilization and Color Rendering in Vacuum‐Deposited Semitransparent Perovskite Solar Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, low bandgap (≈1.55 eV) semitransparent perovskite solar cells (ST‐PSCs) having thin (thickness < ≈100 nm) perovskite layers and transparent conductive oxide‐based rear electrodes are fabricated using vacuum‐deposition methods. Two different ST‐PSCs demonstrated a high light utilization efficiency value of 4.2 (PCE: 9.26% and AVT: 45.3 ...

Elephant‐Skin‐Inspired Porous Cementitious Tiles with Programmable Crack Networks for Passive Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Elephant‐skin‐inspired crack networks are programmed in porous diatomaceous earth (DE)‐cement composites using substrate‐guided, stress‐concentration induced fracture. The resulting crack lattices act as capillary conduits that redistribute water, while the porous matrix stores moisture.
