Multifunctional electrocatalysts are desirable for overall water splitting in the energy conversion and storage fields. In this work, N, S-co-doped carbon nanotubes (CNT-NS) were obtained using a superior cost-effective method. The low-cost multi-walled CNTs were activated under a standard air...

In order to describe car following behavior in real world, this paper presents a non-lane-based car following model by incorporating the effects of the lane width in traffic. The stability condition of the model is obtained by using the linear stability theory. And numerical simulation is...

This paper examines how decentralization of administrative and fiscal authority affects the development of small cities by exploiting a unique reform of county-to-city upgrading (chexiansheshi) in China. Based on a comprehensive county-level dataset and difference-in-difference approach, I...

Considering the existence of strong policy intervention in China, this paper introduces policy uncertainty into standard Real Options framework, and provides a theoretical explanation for the land development decision in an emerging market. Based on survival analysis, we examine the determinants...
