Progress toward the sustainable development of world cultural heritage sites facing land-cover changes

The quantification of the extent and dynamics of land-use changes is a key metric employed to assess the progress toward several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that form part of the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda. In terms of anthropogenic factors threatening the conservation of heritage properties, such a metric...

The competition and equilibrium in power markets under decarbonization and decentralization

Equilibrium analysis has been widely studied as an effective tool to model gaming interactions and predict market results. However, as competition modes are fundamentally changed by the decarbonization and decentralization of power systems, analysis techniques must evolve. This article comprehensively reviews recent developments in modelling...

Equilibrium running principle analysis on an adaptive cycle engine

As an evolutional concept of variable cycle engine, the adaptive cycle engine draws widely attention with high expectations. It combines a variable geometry schedule and component matching principles to demonstrate its advantages such as avoiding severe inlet spillage drag and the wide variable cycle characteristics. Thus, this paper aims at...
