Factors Associated with Medical and Health Talent Agglomeration at the City Level in China: Economic, Social, and Ecological Perspectives.

Economic Geography and Public Policy

Research on the spatial aspects of economic activity has flourished over the past decade due to the emergence of new theory, new data, and an intense interest on the part of policymakers, especially in Europe but increasingly in North Ameri...

Economic Geography

Economic Geography is the most complete, up-to-date textbook available on the important new field of spatial economics. This book fills a gap by providing advanced undergraduate and graduate students with the latest research and methodologi...

China's CO2 emissions reduction potential: A novel inverse DEA model with frontier changes and comparable value

In order to make China's carbon emission policies effectively, it is necessary to estimate the CO2 emissions reduction reasonably of each province in China. This study aims to establish a new measurement method by employing an Inverse Data ...

Investigation of Microstructure and Mechanical Behavior of Nanomodified Cement-Based Materials

Recent advances in nanotechnology have highlighted the transformative potential of carbon-based nanomaterials, such as carbon nanofibers, carbon nanotubes, and graphene, in cementitious systems. These materials have shown a remarkable abili...

tRNA sequences can assemble into a replicator

Can replication and translation emerge in a single mechanism via self-assembly? The key molecule, transfer RNA (tRNA), is one of the most ancient molecules and contains the genetic code. Our experiments show how a pool of oligonucleotides, ...

The Impact Of Shopping Centers In Rural Areas And Small Towns In The Outer Metropolitan Zone (The Example Of The Silesian Voivodeship)

Shopping centers in the Silesian Voivodeship have a significant impact on smaller settlement units located in outer areas of agglomerations. It consists mainly in changes related to social, economic, as well as functional and spatial sphere...

URBAN PUBLIC TRANSPORT WITH THE USE OF ELECTRIC BUSES – DEVELOPMENT TENDENCIES

The programing documents of the European Union determine the direction of transport systems development, including large cities and agglomerations. The context of these actions which aim to transform into ecologically clean and sustainable ...

Modelling Urban Tourism in Historic Southeast Asian Cities

Older cities with significant physical historic resources have become increasingly important centers for urban tourism, though contemporary attractions and events are often important in their own right. It is acknowledged that urban areas a...

Will the Construction of Smart Cities Increase the Urban-Rural Income Gap? An Analysis Based on the Perspective of Economic Agglomeration

As smart city development deepens, its impact on the urban-rural income gap has become a key concern for both the government and society. This article uses panel data from Chinese prefecture-level cities between 2010 and 2022, treating the ...

Manufacturing of Hierarchical (Nano-)Composite Structures: Numerical and Experimental Perspectives

Thermoset polymer nanocomposites have considerable potential to improve the functionality and optimise the performance of composite structures. Such a nanocomposite generally consists of a modified polymer matrix (continuous phase) containi...

MP-VHPPI: Meta predictor for viral host protein-protein interaction prediction in multiple hosts and viruses

Viral-host protein-protein interaction (VHPPI) prediction is essential to decoding molecular mechanisms of viral pathogens and host immunity processes that eventually help to control the propagation of viral diseases and to design optimized...
