Nexus security: governance, innovation and the resilient city

Michael Bruce BECK, Rodrigo VILLARROEL WALKER

Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering 2013, Volume 7, Issue 5,   Pages 640-657 doi: 10.1007/s11783-013-0549-5

Abstract: Nexus security is a compound mix of ideas: reconciling human needs and wants with access to multiple resources; diversity of access to those resources and services; resilience in the face of weather- and climate-related variability; resilience likewise in the face of infrastructure failure; and the personal, individual sense of belonging. At the level of Systems Thinking there is a very close relationship between resilience in the behavior of natural (ecological) systems and resilience in the social dynamics of governance within communities, where such resilience establishes the viability of these communities over centuries, which in turn entails successful stewardship of the man-environment relationship. We use insights from this cross-system mapping — across natural, built, and human systems — to assess, first, the role of city governance in achieving nexus security (or not) and, second, the role of technological innovations in serving the same purpose. More specifically, eight principles, covering resilience and diversity of access to resources and services, are used to gauge security-enhancing features of city buildings and infrastructure. Case studies include new designs of resilient office blocks, nutrient (nitrogen and phosphorus) recovery systems for sanitation and wastewater treatment, and the reconstruction of urban parks for the provision of ecosystem services. Throughout the paper, matters of risk in the face of meteorological variability are prominent. We do not conclude, however, that the presence of risk implies nexus security.

Large eddy simulation of turbulent buffet forces in flow induced vibration

XI Zhide, CHENG Bingde, LI Pengzhou

Frontiers in Energy 2008, Volume 2, Issue 4,   Pages 524-527 doi: 10.1007/s11708-008-0099-x

Abstract: The pressure pulse filter and Smagorinsky sub-grid stress model of the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) are introduced. The fluid field in the annular plenum between the pressure vessel and the core barrel of the1:5 model in the second phase of Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant is simulated, and the distribution of the total pressure in the space and time domains is obtained. The results show that the Power Spectrum Density (PSD) of LES from the calculation and the test are in the same quantity order. Thus, the pressure of LES can be a load to stimulate the barrel vibration.

Analysis of driving forces behind diversified carbon dioxide emission patterns in regions of the mainland

Xin TIAN, Hidefumi IMURA, Miao CHANG, Feng SHI, Hiroki TANIKAWA

Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering 2011, Volume 5, Issue 3,   Pages 445-458 doi: 10.1007/s11783-011-0330-6

Abstract: China has large regional disparities in carbon dioxide CO emissions with economic development among its 31 provincial mainland regions. This paper investigates these disparities in CO emission patterns and identifies the factors underlying the differences. Results show that the 30 study China's mainland provinces (Tibet not included) can be divided into seven groups with three typical CO emission patterns. Index decomposition results indicate that changes in economic development, the industrial sector, and technology contribute far more to increased CO emissions than do population, energy structure, and other sectors. Close inspection reveals that different industry structures and technology contribute greatly to the differences observed in CO emissions between provinces with similar economic output. This study highlights the importance of region-specific industrial structure adjustment policies, especially for regions transitioning to heavy industry and for those still in the primary stages of industrialization. The potential application of a domestic carbon emissions trading system, to encourage regional investment in updated technology, is also discussed.

Keywords： carbon dioxide emission patterns     China     economic development     index decomposition analysis     industrialization
