Shipwreck Architecture by Simon Weir, Sara Rich

“…This trajectory of ideas is then projected into a creative project: a speculative history of shipwreck architecture where the cutting edge of biological research is projected into a technological future when the distant aims of today’s technology are ancient history: when the first generations of grown buildings are preserved as ruins, when giant decommissioned carbon-capture factories drift like ghost ships across lakes of their inky waste, when people remember when shipwrecks caused by the hazards of rising sea levels were later exposed by sinking sea levels and converted into hotels and theatres, and finally, when these theatrical memories provoke such nostalgia that shipwreck architecture would be replicated and fabricated. …”

Network energy saving technologies for green 5G by Lei GUAN, Yang DING, Ruijie LI, Tong SU, Lijie HU, Yi WANG, Nan HU

“…Based on the background of low carbon consumption and the network energy saving topic, deep investigation for the network energy occupancy ratio was performed, and finally the target was set on the energy reduction for the antenna unit of base station.In addition, based on the base station power consumption model and the evaluation methodology considering the tradeoff between energy efficiency and system performance, a set of technical directions for network energy saving were introduced and analyzed, including time domain shutdown, spatial channel shutdown, frequency domain extension and power back off.Evaluation results were provided to show the space for the above energy saving techniques.Furthermore, other dimensions were also considered, including multi-site networking based energy saving, assistance information based energy saving and PA efficiency enhancements.…”

The Separate Removal of Trace CO and Moist NO from Off-Gases by Adsorption on H-Type Mordenite by Z.-M. Wang, T. Arai, M. Kumagai

“…Such properties, together with the lower adsorption temperature and the thermal stability of the adsorbent, suggest a promising process involving H-type mordenites whereby NO x can be selectively captured and returned to the dissolving solution while trace amounts of 14 CO 2 -containing carbon oxides pass through the system allowing their subsequent complete removal by entrapment in a solid matrix.…”
