Research on the Hierarchical Spatial Structure of the Urban Agglomeration of the Yellow River Ji-Shaped Bend by Fang Wang, Mengyao Guo, Xi Guo, Fangqu Niu

“…The following conclusions can be drawn. (1) The cities with the strongest regional comprehensive power are Ordos, Taiyuan, Hohhot, Yinchuan, and Yulin, which cause the UAYB to present a significant “center-periphery” spatial pattern. (2) The biggest population flows mostly occur between cities in the same province, while interprovincial population flows mainly exist between cities with the strongest comprehensive power. (3) The hierarchical spatial structure of the UAYB forms a multitree structure, with Ordos as the core. (4) The attractiveness of the UAYB is very weak, being only slightly attractive to individual surrounding provinces, while the population outflow index to economically developed areas is high. …”

Breaking down the relationship between disruption scores and citation counts. by Mingtang Li, Giacomo Livan, Simone Righi

“…Contrastingly, the opposite is not true, as we do not find highly cited papers to be particularly disruptive. Notably, these results qualitatively hold even within individual scientific careers, as we find that-on average-an author's most disruptive work tends to be well cited, whereas their most cited work does not tend to be disruptive. …”

Optimization of Low-Impact Development Scheme for Communities by HU Jinhui, PANG Aoxuan, SUN Yingna

“…The benefits of different low-impact development (LID) combinations are compared and quantified from the perspective of sponge cities to alleviate the problem of urban waterlogging.For a residential project in Beijing,the stormwater management model (SWMM) and the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) are used to analyze three different schemes with different layout scales of bioretention facilities,grassland,sunken green space,permeable pavements,and reservoirs.Among them,Scheme 3 improves the rainwater utilization capacity of the study area and the landscape effect under the condition that the total annual runoff is reduced by 75%.The research achieves the optimization of the ratio of different LID facilities and the optimization of comprehensive benefits,which is of referential significance for promoting the development of sponge cities.…”
