Demographic Changes and Their Spatial-Settlement Consequences: Lessons from East Germany and Hungary by Tibor Kovács

“…In this paper I would like to outline the settlement and spatial problems of demographic shrinkage and suggest certain theoretical solutions being aware of the fact that there is no universal solution for shrinkage; each and every settlement has to find and carry out their own solution – emphasising the mobilisation of the endogenous resources of the given region or settlement.…”

Study on the Effect of Blood Content on Diffuse Reflectance Spectra of Basal Cell Carcinoma Skin Tissue by Miaoqing Nan, Qingli He

“…After different blood contents were added to the optical model, the contribution of blood to diffuese reflectance spectra was investigated theoretically. The ratios of basal cell carcinoma skin and normal skin tissue were also calculated for both experimental result and rebuilt results to testify the theoretical reasonability of the model and methods.…”

Analysis of the influence of Doppler effect on Starlink downlink signals by Zhe LI, Weihong LIN, Wei DENG, Jianfeng YANG, Zhanyu ZHU

“…Understanding the influence of Doppler effect on the transmission performance of the Starlink system was an important prerequisite to decipher its unique physical layer structure.To this end, firstly a Doppler effect model considering relative motion between the satellites and the earth was established, and the maximum Doppler effect parameters of the Starlink was provided.Subsequently, a signal model under Doppler effect was constructed based on the Starlink downlink time-frequency structure and parameters.Finally, time-frequency domain theoretical characteristics under Doppler effect for the three main components of the downlink signal were established.The validity of the theoretical findings is corroborated through simulations, serving as a valuable reference for research on transmission reliability in existing and future low earth orbit satellite communication systems.…”
