Abstract:
With the continuous development of China's transportation infrastructure strategies and urbanization, urban road networks have seen ongoing improvement. Yet noise pollution along expressways is gradually becoming a prominent issue within the broader challenge of urban noise. Noise control has recently emerged as a bottleneck for building livable cities, while well-designed landscapes can improve the quality of psychological perception. By precisely quantifying the multi-sensory composite perception characteristics of urban green space landscapes, this research explores the mechanism through wh

Abstract:
The mapping of thermokarst landscapes and the assessment of their conditions are becoming increasingly important in light of a rising global temperature. Land cover maps provide a basis for quantifying changes in landscapes and identifying areas that are vulnerable to permafrost degradation. The study is devoted to assessing the current state of thermokarst terrain on Arga Island. We applied a random forests algorithm using the capabilities of the Google Earth Engine cloud platform for the supervised classification of the composite image.

Abstract:
This work deals with the dichotomy between integration and fragmentation caused by artificial elements in the cultural landscapes, especially minor rural roads. In Europe, the rural matrix dominates the configuration of landscapes, and the agents of fragmentation can be analysed from different perspectives. For this purpose, the Land Parcel Information System, designed for the Common Agriculture Policy (CAP) is used as a data source to feed the indicators, allowing a high detail analysis, down to the parcel unit. It is applied to a case-study in Spain: the province of Ciudad Real. Here we find

When the leading mid-nineteenth-century landscape artist in Victoria, Eugene von Guérard, was criticised for failing to illustrate nature sublimely, he replied that his “greatest desire” was to “imitate nature” as far as it was “compatible with the effect of the picture.” Later, he asserted that his aim was “to be true to nature as far as possible” in his art. This empirical, science-informed thesis explores what being “true to nature” meant in Guérard’s practice by examining natural features typically illustrated with fidelity, scrutinising features freely transformed for artistic effect, and

Despite their wide use and their development, no attention has generally been paid to the spatial dimension of their input data and of their final score. Data are treated as

Ritual landscapes were integral to Inca imperial expansion, both as a medium for and as a product of the interaction between the Inca state and regional and local polities. The incorporation of peoples and lands into the Inca Empire entailed complex dealings with local and regional huacas, together with the co-optation and modification of local elite lineages, corporate origins, and histories. Late Horizon ritual landscapes were thus emergent phenomena, constructed over time through processes of negotiation and reconfiguration between the Inca and other peoples.

Abstract:
Due to the anisotropic nature of fibre-reinforced laminates, thermally-induced internal stresses can remain in the material after manufacture. Mismatches between coefficients of thermal expansion are especially prominent in thin shells with fewer plies or large angle variations. Such stresses cause out-of-plane warping and are therefore often deliberately avoided. Utilising their effects on structural behaviour however, can enable stiffness-tailored composite compliant mechanisms. Work detailed in this paper aims to exploit thermal prestress to reduce the torsional stiffness of cross-ply tape

Abstract:
The article analyzes the current state of the issue of eco-design. Using the example of landscape architecture, the use of modern composite materials obtained by processing production waste into secondary raw materials is proposed and examples of the use of new materials in the “environmental policy” of park design are presented.

Abstract The landscape of medical technology, particularly in prosthetics and orthopedic supports, is on the cusp of a transformation driven by integrating advanced composite materials such as carbon fiber. This paper presents a novel approach to the assembly of these materials, focusing on the development and optimization of smooth inserts tailored to medical applications. To overcome the limitations of conventional assembly methods, this study investigates the geometric optimization of inserts to improve the mechanical performance and durability of composite medical devices.

This is due to the development of rechargeable electrical energy storage system (battery pack), which is the main power source for EVs. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) pack is predominantly used across all major vehicle categories such as 2-wheelers, 3-wheelers and light commercial vehicle. LIB is one of the high energy-dense sources of volume. However, LIBs have a challenge to pose a risk of short circuits and b

Abstract:
This paper introduces the Global Index of Digital Entrepreneurship Systems (GIDES), a composite indicator that assesses these ecosystems at the national level. GIDES considers the general, structural, and digital framework conditions that support digital entrepreneurship, and identifies system bottlenecks. GIDES profiles 113 countries, focusing on 21 in developing Asia, and the paper suggests how it can support policymaking

Abstract:
A near-global framework for automated training data generation and land cover classification using shallow machine learning with low-density time series imagery does not exist. This study presents a methodology to map nine-class, six-class, and five-class land cover using two dates of a Sentinel-2 granule across seven international sites. The approach uses a series of spectral, textural, and distance decision functions combined with modified ancillary layers to create binary masks from which to generate a balanced set of training data applied to a random forest classifier.

Abstract:
Active sand dunes in Kobuk Valley National Park are a regionally rare and ecologically distinct landscape feature occurring within the northern boreal biome. The sand dunes harbor a rich diversity of plants, including several rare and disjunct species and the endemic Kobuk locoweed (Oxytropis kobukensis). Pollinators associated with these dune plants have not been studied in Kobuk Valley, despite their essential role in transporting pollen which many plants rely on for successful reproduction. In order to gain a better understanding of pollinator diversity and plant-pollinator associations in

Abstract:
Homestead National Historical Park (HOME), southeast Nebraska, commemorates the 1862 Homestead Act with series of exhibits, including outdoor ecosystems that represent how the landscape may have appeared historically. The historical, scenic views of HOME have high aesthetic value but are threatened by land use changes, especially construction of tall structures visible over long distances. The impacts of development on scenic views depends on the location and height of constructed objects, topographical variability of the landscape, and the degree of visual obstruction from existing abovegroun

Amid the evolving US-China tariff realignment and the broader restructuring of global value chains, this paper evaluates the vulnerability and strategic positioning of the Philippines alongside four other ASEAN economies—Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. For the ASEAN-5, the key challenge lies in minimizing exposure to import flooding from displaced Chinese goods and potential exclusion from global value chains if competitiveness falters, while also capitalizing on trade and investment diversion opportunities.
