Muller, J.R.M. (author), Chen, Yong ping (author), Aarninkhof, S.G.J. (author), Chan, Ying chi (author), Piersma, Theunis (author), van Maren, D.S. (author), Tao, Jian feng (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author), Gong, Zheng (author)China's continuous and rapid economic growth has led to the reclamation of large sections of the intertidal mud coast in combination with port construction, such as that of the proposed Tongzhou Bay port on the Jiangsu coast. These reclamations threaten the local ecosystem services. An ecotope distribution map was created and a hydrodynamic...journal article 2020

(author), Tao, Jian Feng (author), Gong, Zheng (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author), van Maren, D.S. (author)The fast economic development of the People's Republic of China has created an increasing demand for usable land, resulting in large-scale land reclamations along the coastal zone. One of these regions is Tongzhou Bay (Jiangsu coast), a region characterized by large intertidal mudflats and deep tidal channels with potential for the...journal article 2020

Yang, Jinxin (author), Wong, Man Sing (author), Ho, Hung Chak (author), Krayenhoff, E. Scott (author), Chan, P. W. (author), Abbas, Sawaid (author), Menenti, M. (author)The complete surface temperature (T<sub>c</sub>) in urban areas, defined as the mean temperature of the total active surface area, is an important variable in urban micro-climate research, specifically for assessment of the urban surface energy balance.

Mulholland, Cara (author), Chan, P.W.C. (author), Canning, Kate (author), Ejohwomu, Obuks (author)Studies of project success have generally recognised the role that stakeholder management plays in shaping a collective understanding of value. While these studies have typically focused on new builds, few studies have examined stakeholder management at the end of the life of a built asset. This paper draws on a single megaproject case study...journal article 2020

Abualqumboz, Moheeb (author), Chan, P.W.C. (author), Bamford, David (author), Reid, Iain (author)Purpose: This study aims to examine reciprocal exchanges in knowledge networks using temporal differentiation of knowledge exchanges. To date, research on horizontal knowledge networks rather overlooks the temporal perspective, which could explain the dynamics of exchange in those networks. Design/methodology/approach: The paper reports on a...journal article 2020

van der Reep, T.H.A. (author), Looman, B.A. (author), Chan, H.W. (author), Hagen, C.W. (author), van der Graaf, H. (author)We measure the transmission secondary electron yield of nanometer-thick Al2O3/TiN/Al2O3 films using a prototype version of a Timed Photon Counter (TiPC). We discuss the method to measure the yield extensively. The yield is then measured as a function of landing energy between 1.2 and 1.8 keV and found to be in the range of 0.1 (1.2 keV) to 0.9 ...journal article 2020

Lee, Pan (author), Chan, Edwin H.W. (author), Qian, QK (author), Lam, Patrick T.I. (author)Purpose: Design teams have difficulties in assessing building carbon emissions at an early stage, as most building energy simulation tools require a detailed input of building design for estimation. The purpose of this paper is to develop a user-friendly regression model to estimate carbon emissions of the preliminary design of office...journal article 2019

Meng, M. (author), Dabrowski, M.M. (author), Tai, Y. (author), Stead, D. (author), Chan, Faith (author)Integration of flood risk in spatial planning is increasingly seen as a way to enhance cities’ resilience to the growing flood hazards, albeit its operationalisation remains challenging. This study aims to explain the reasons for this difficulty through the case study of Guangzhou, a Chinese delta city that is highly vulnerable to coastal,...journal article 2019

Mulholland, Cara (author), Ejohwomu, Obuks (author), Chan, P.W.C. (author)Recently, the concept of social value in construction has seen increasing policy, practice and research interest. In part, this interest stems from growing recognition that construction projects, and especially megaprojects, can create huge social impacts. Although many studies have focussed on defining and developing measures for quantifying...journal article 2019

(author), Sahasrabudhe, Harshad (author), Klimeck, Gerhard (author), Morello, Andrea (author), Dzurak, Andrew S. (author), Rahman, Rajib (author)We identify the presence of monatomic steps at the Si/SiGe or Si/SiO2 interface as a dominant source of variations in the dephasing time of silicon (Si) quantum dot (QD) spin qubits. First, using atomistic tight-binding calculations we show that the g-factors and their Stark shifts undergo variations due to these steps. We compare our...journal article 2018

(author), Itoh, K. M. (author)Silicon quantum dot spin qubits provide a promising platform for large-scale quantum computation because of their compatibility with conventional CMOS manufacturing and the long coherence times accessible using 28Si enriched material. A scalable error-corrected quantum processor, however, will require control of many qubits in parallel, while...journal article 2018

Fan, Ke (author), Chan, Edwin H.W. (author), Qian, QK (author)It is claimed that transaction costs (TCs) affect the effectiveness of any green building (GB) policy. However, few studies have empirically applied TC analysis to GB incentives, which normally should have analyzed the TCs borne by different stakeholders. These include TC typology and determinants during the implementation process, especially...journal article 2018

Fan, Ke (author), Wei, Gu (author), Qian, QK (author), Chan, Edwin (author)Green building (GB) policies have been implemented to promote GB and address climate change. Most of the existing literatures have studied the costs and benefits of developing GB, without considerations of GB policies’ impacts. This paper aims to study costs and benefits of implementing GB policy from developers’ perspective. It takes the Gross...conference paper 2017
