In addition to their educational purposes, public schools and their surrounding properties are essential to community liveability, as they enrich the daily lives of children, parents, and nearby residents.Yet, decisions are being made to close schools in Ontario, Canada based on declining enrolments, without due consideration of these benefits.Sinc

We present a carbon-cycle–climate modelling framework using model emulation, designed for integrated assessment modelling, which introduces a new emulator kids beanie of the carbon cycle (GENIEem).We demonstrate that GENIEem successfully reproduces the CO2 concentrations of the Representative Concentration Pathways when forced with the corres

In this paper we present a case study of a record low ozone event observed over the UK in January 2006.We focus on the dynamical processes that cause this event.This is done by examining the observations, meteorological analyses and back trajectories calculated by the NAME III atmospheric dispersion model.We show that this model, hitherto only used

The behavioral analysis of cyber-physical systems in safety-critical scenarios is a challenging task.In this paper, the endogenous and exogenous aspects of resilience are of cornerstone importance in system design and verification.Endogenous resilience is the inherent ability of the system to detect and process internal faults and malicious attacks

This study focuses on the design and improvement of railway turnouts, which are critical yet complex parts of the railway infrastructure.As they are responsible for track discontinuity and potential derailments, turnouts pose significant challenges in terms of slack, misalignment and rail breakage.A new concept related to the design of turnouts, in
