Analysis of the Effect of Skin Pigmentation and Oxygen Saturation on Monte Carlo-Simulated Reflectance Photoplethysmography Signals by Raghda Al-Halawani, Meha Qassem, Panicos A. Kyriacou

“…It was also shown that the impact at 940 nm is minimal (<0.2%), indicating that the increased absorption of red light by melanin has a greater effect on the ratio of ratios calculations. These results suggest that in-built adjustments may be required for data collected from red-light sources in pulse oximeters that do not currently have the necessary post-processing algorithms to account for this difference between diverse skin populations.…”

Coordinated Development of Urban Transportation Structure Optimization and Energy Conservation, and Emission Reduction Under the Low-Carbon Background in Lanzhou, China by Zheming Shi, Yongsheng Qian, Junwei Zeng, Xu Wei, Minan Yang

“…Accordingly, this study constructs a multi-objective optimization model to optimize the transportation structure of Lanzhou City and quantitatively verifies the optimization effects through carbon emission calculations and coordination evaluations. The results indicate that (1) optimizing urban transportation structures can reduce energy consumption and emission levels but cannot achieve the “carbon peaking” goal; (2) developing urban rail transit has a significant positive impact on energy saving and emission reduction; (3) the development of green transportation is closely integrated with and mutually influenced by slow-moving transportation, showing both synergy and constraints; and (4) under the comprehensive restriction scenario, despite higher energy consumption and emission values, better coordination is achieved, making it the most suitable optimization plan aligned with the green transportation development concept.…”
