Development of a Measure of Permeability between Private and Public Space

Urban Science, 2018
This article focuses on the development of a measure for frontage permeability, which we argue is needed to complement existing metrics used to describe urban environments and assess, amongst others, social performativity.

Decoding Viral Transmission Dynamics in Structured Populations Using a Microfluidic Herd‐Immunity‐on‐a‐Chip Platform

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A microfluidic Herd‐Immunity‐on‐a‐Chip experimentally recreates structured contact networks to quantify viral transmission dynamics. By controlling susceptible, infected, and non‐susceptible populations, the platform reveals how contact topology governs the reproduction number, outbreak propagation, herd‐immunity–like behavior, and intervention ...

Urban Form and Sustainable development [PDF]

, 2011
The links between urban development and the environment are numerous and complex. If natural and agriculture lands may attract households, the very process of urban development impacts on the environment in multiple ways : water and air pollution, biodiversity loss, greenhouse gaz emission by the transport of people and commodities, etc.

Bridging Horizontal to Vertical Radiative Cooling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Radiative cooling materials are mature but only work facing the sky, confining them to rooftops. Instead of developing new ones, this system bridges existing horizontal coolers to vertical windows using blades outside the glass. On an occupied urban building, windows stay up to 1.4°C below air temperature while preserving daylight, outward views, and ...

Synthesis‐Dependent Grain Boundary Density Governs Low‐Temperature Lithium Diffusion in Single‐Crystal NCM Cathodes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The relationship between synthesis‐dependent crystallization behavior, internal grain‐boundary density, and intrinsic lithium diffusion kinetics in single‐crystal mid‐Ni NCM cathodes is elucidated, providing practical design insights for advanced cathode materials.

Autonomous Solar Metallurgy for High‐Purity Gold Recovery from Electronic Waste

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by microbial strategies for metal uptake and biomineralization, defect‐rich copper sulfide (Cu31S16) functions as a solar metallurgical platform that unifies Au(III) capture, reduction, and self‐separation. The bioinspired design enables ultrafast gold recovery from electronic‐waste leachates and the spontaneous formation of millimeter‐scale ...
