A Review of Urban Resilience Frameworks: Transferring Knowledge to Enhance Pandemic Resilience [PDF]
Urbanization is rapidly increasing, with urban populations expected to grow significantly by 2050, particularly in developing regions. This expansion brings challenges related to chronic stresses and acute shocks, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which has underscored the critical role of urban form in a city's capacity to manage public health crises ...

Lumpy Countries, Urbanization, and Trade [PDF]
Lumpiness of production factors within a country might overturn the predictions for the structure of trade by the factor-abundance (HO) model. Trade patterns, as predicted by this model, can both be magnified or reversed by uneven concentration of ...

Parametric Study on the Performance of Gas Springs in FPSE With Pneumatic Supporting System
ABSTRACT The introduction of a pneumatic supporting system composed of gas springs and hydrostatic bearings in the free‐piston Stirling generator (FPSG) can effectively increase the power density of the nuclear space power plant. In this paper, a 1 kW FPSG with pneumatic supporting system was developed, and the working characteristics of dual gas ...

Towards Autonomous Micromobility through Scalable Urban Simulation [PDF]
Micromobility, which utilizes lightweight mobile machines moving in urban public spaces, such as delivery robots and mobility scooters, emerges as a promising alternative to vehicular mobility. Current micromobility depends mostly on human manual operation (in-person or remote control), which raises safety and efficiency concerns when navigating busy ...
