Computing the Electric and Magnetic Matrix Green’s Functions in a Rectangular Parallelepiped with a Perfect Conducting Boundary by V. G. Yakhno, Ş. Ersoy

“…A method for the approximate computation of frequency-dependent magnetic and electric matrix Green’s functions in a rectangular parallelepiped with a perfect conducting boundary is suggested in the paper. This method is based on approximation (regularization) of the Dirac delta function and its derivatives, which appear in the differential equations for magnetic and electric Green’s functions, and the Fourier series expansion meta-approach for solving the elliptic boundary value problems. …”

Assessment and Optimization of Ecological Networks in Trans-Provincial Metropolitan Areas—A Case Study of the Xuzhou Metropolitan Area by Yijia Zhao, Peiyuan Zhang, Hao Xu, Wei Liu

“…In this study, we optimized the identification of ecological sources at the metropolitan area scale by constructing the ‘MIE’ model combined with the threshold analysis method, identified the core ecological sources in the Xuzhou Metropolitan Area, a typical cross-provincial metropolitan area in China, and then extracted the ecological corridors by using the Linkage Mapper tool based on this method. The spatiotemporal patterns and components of the ecological network of the Xuzhou metropolitan area from 1990 to 2020 were assessed, and an optimization analysis was performed based on the current ecological network. …”
