Total heavy prefabrication: Santo António dos Cavaleiros (SAC) and Quinta do Morgado (QM) by Alberto Reaes Pinto

“…Prefabrication is one of the two great methods of industrialized construction that became cost-effective after World War II. The development of such industrialized building techniques was prompted by the great shortage of buildings resulting from the massive destruction of cities, the big demographic explosion and the industrial concentration after World War II (Blachère, 1975).Traditional construction, which was diffused and disorganized, short of skilled labour, materials and energy, came out ineffective. …”

Analysis of Collaborative Governance of Network Public Opinion in Social Circles Based on Blockchain Traceability Strategy: An Evolutionary Game Theory Approach by Zeguo Qiu, Yunhao Chen, Hao Han, Yuchen Yin

“…The findings suggest: (1) Although the rising cost of building blockchain platforms may undermine the government’s incentive to regulate, the government will still prioritise support for their construction if they can significantly enhance social welfare. (2) The government could boost SNPs’ willingness to adopt blockchain technology through subsidy measures, but increased privacy risks could undermine this willingness. (3) Blockchain technology realizes the traceability of public opinion and improves the rational guidance tendency of SCMs. …”

An Improved LEACH Protocol for Optimizing Cluster Head Selection and In-cluster Selection by SHIBing, GAOZelin, SUNYueping, HUANJuan, SUNTao

“…Furthermore, in selecting nodes for cluster inclusion, three criteria are considered: the communication radius of each node, the energy available for allocation by the nodes within the cluster, and the distance between the cluster head and the base station. A cost function is subsequently established, allowing for the assignment of nodes to the appropriate cluster based on the calculated optimal value. …”

Public transport strategy: Minimal service vs. competitor to the car by Cecília Silva, Catarina Cadima, Nayanne Castro, Aud Tennoy

“…With regard to public policy for public transport services, two dominant approaches are found: the provision of minimal services to the car-less population, or the provision of a service that competes directly with the car (in terms of time, cost, convenience, etc.). Increased acknowledgement of the need to mitigate traffic growth and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions has led to a growing need to shift from the former to the latter, encouraging the use of public transport. …”
