Bio‐Inspired Molecular Events in Poly(Ionic Liquids)

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Originating from dipolar and polar inter‐ and intra‐chain interactions of the building blocks, the topologies and morphologies of poly(ionic liquids) (PIL) govern their nano‐ and micro‐processibility. Modulating the interactions of cation‐anion pairs with aliphatic dipolar components enables the tunability of properties, facilitated by “bottom‐up ...

Using phase change materials to alleviate overheating phenomenon of residential buildings in severe cold and cold regions of China

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2023
Due to global warming, the overheating risk of residential buildings (especially with no air conditioning) in severe cold and cold regions of China is attracting increasing attention. This phenomenon will seriously affect people’s comfort and even health.

Modeling urban regions

open access: yes, 2021
Cellular automat​on (CA) are important tools that provide insight into urbanization dynamics and possible future patterns. The calibration process is the core theme of these models. This study compares the performance of two common machine-learning classifiers, random forest (RF), and support vector machines (SVM), to calibrate CA.
