This research proposes an Activity Pattern embedded Air Pollution Exposure Model (AP2EM), based on survey data of when, where, and how people spend their time and indoor/outdoor ratios for microenvironments. AP2EM integrates random forest and agent-based approaches to simulate the stochastic...

In this paper, we use the TVP-VAR model to examine volatility connectedness among four cryptocurrencies and four China’s financial assets in static and dynamic scenarios from January 1, 2014 to August 29, 2022. We find that the dynamic total connectedness of the system consisting of...

Natural disasters frequently occur in China, leading to substantial direct economic losses in various sectors and significant indirect losses that spread through the interregional supply chain network. The agricultural sector is particularly vulnerable to disaster response, emphasizing the...

The pyrite-based mixotrophic denitrification focused on the anaerobic environment. In this study, the oxygen limitation was broken and high-rate mixotrophic denitrification was realized under natural aerobic conditions via introducing PHBV and controlling the pyrite grain sizes compared with...

According to non-equilibrium thermodynamics in Li-ion batteries (LIBs), the complicated coupling relations exist among the electric flux, ion flux, heat flux and so on. In this paper, we propose a thermal-electrochemical-mechanical coupled model which could predict capacity loss, concentration...

A rich reserve, low-cost electrocatalyst with high-efficiency catalytic activity is supposed to be a promising substitute for Pt-based noble metal electrocatalysts. Herein, we produced a heterostructure MoS2-Ni3S2 nanosphere on 3D nano-porous Ni through a novel synthetic strategy. Benefiting...

Fermentative hydrogen production from cassava stillage was conducted to investigate the influences of temperature (37 °C, 60 °C, 70 °C) and initial pH (4-10) in batch experiments. Although the seed sludge was mesophilic anaerobic sludge, maximum hydrogen yield (53.8 ml...
