Cool Kitchen: Processing Starch and Eggshell Powder into Sustainable Coatings for Passive Daytime Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A food‐grade cooling composite made from starch and recycled eggshell powder offers a scalable, ultra‐low‐cost solution for passive daytime radiative cooling. Easily prepared using basic kitchen tools, this material empowers communities, even in areas with limited infrastructure, to stay cooler during worsening summer heat waves.

DYNAMICS OF SPATIAL STRUCTURE IN FRENCH URBAN AGGLOMERATIONS [PDF]

open access: yesPapers in Regional Science, 1984
P. Allen's intra-urban model applies the bifurcation theory to simulate the evolution of urban spatial structure. Until now, this model has only been tested to simulate plausible fictitious urban structures but its ability to reproduce observed evolutions has still to be tested.

Urban Spatial Structure, Transport-Related Emissions and Welfare [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2017
In this paper, we study the effects of urban design on pollution and welfare. We build a theoretical model of residential choices with pollution externalities arising from commuting, where the size of the central business district (CBD) and the demand for housing are endogenous.

Plot-based urbanism and urban morphometrics : measuring the evolution of blocks, street fronts and plots in cities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Generative urban design has been always conceived as a creation-centered process, i.e. a process mainly concerned with the creation phase of a spatial transformation. We argue that, though the way we create a space is important, how that space evolves in

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 ...
