The use of a simulation and modeling tool, supported by various methodological references, formed the basis of our approach. Adopting a systemic perspective, we described the structural and functional aspects of the systems making up built spaces, as well as the associated energy flows. Our approach was also based on a typology, taking into account typical days, structural and functional configurations at different scales and angles of observation. The analysis tool we developed in Java was applied to the built space system of the Patte d’Oie university campus in Ouagadougou. Annual electricity consumption was measured at 124387.34 kWh, closely aligned with the average annual electricity bill (125224.31 kWh), with a maximum relative deviation of 1%, followed by a carbon emission balance of 58337.66 kg eq CO<sub>2</sub> per year. This validation confirmed the effectiveness of our tool. In addition, following the analysis of electricity consumption using our tool, the university campus was classified in energy class B and environmental class C. These results will be based on the emission factors of the energy mix of the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) territory, with particular emphasis on Burkina Faso.展开更多

We define the reproducing kernel Hilbert space with the spherical harmonics associated with an inner product defined on both the unit ball and the unit sphere, construct the kernel-regularized learning algorithm from the view of semi-supervised learning and bound the upper bounds for the learning rates. The theory analysis shows that the learning algorithm has better uniform convergence according to the number of samples. The research can be regarded as an application of kernel-regularized semi-supervised learning.展开更多

The important roles played by green spaces are social, economic, cultural and environmental aspects of sustainable development. Urban green spaces can be a comprehensive tool for long term protection of environmental sustainability through improving the quality of life and air quality, increasing property value due to their amenity and aesthetic characteristics, and reducing the energy costs of cooling buildings. Urban green spaces also can provide ecosystem services in which the recreation and relaxation facilities are especially available to urban dwellers and tourists too. To confirm the multiple roles played by green spaces, certain level of qualitative improvements and distribution of green spaces within the urban area should be considered and incorporated effectively into the environmental sustainability agenda. To do this, an integrated approach regarding the planning, monitoring, designing and maintaining of urban green spaces is required for improving the environmental sustainability in cities in different countries.展开更多

Methods: A total of 92 patients with thoracolumbar fractures who were treated in Baoji Central Hospital between May 2015 and January 2017 were selected and randomly divided into paravertebral group and minimally invasive percutaneous group who accepted pedicle screw fixation under different approaches. Before operation as well as 1 d and 3 d after operation, serum was collected to determine the contents of creatase, inflammatory reaction molecules and bone metabolism indexes. Results: Serum Myo, CK, LDH, TNF-α, MCP-1, HMGB-1, CRP, IL-1β, OC, OPG, PICP and PINP levels of both groups 1 d and 3 d after operation were significantly higher than those before operation while TRACP5b, RANKL, CTX and NTX levels were significantly lower than those before operation, and serum Myo, CK, LDH, TNF-α, MCP-1, HMGB-1, CRP, IL-1β, TRACP5b, RANKL, CTX and NTX levels of paravertebral group 1 d and 3 d after operation were significantly lower than those of minimally invasive percutaneous group while OC, OPG, PICP and PINP levels were significantly higher than those of minimally invasive percutaneous group. Conclusion:Paravertebral muscle space surgery for thoracolumbar fracture is more effective than minimally invasive percutaneous surgery in reducing muscle injury and inflammatory response, and improving bone metabolism.展开更多

Methods All the 15 cases of ICCAAns underwent the direct microsurgery via the carotid artery-cavernous sinus space approach. Results Immediate carotid arteriography after the surgery showed that the aneurysms disappeared and the carotid artery could be showed clearly and normall. In a follow up period ranged frcm 1 months to 9 years,it was showed that,among 5 cases with 333,IV,V a,VI nerve paralysis before the surgery, three completely recovered,one recovered incompletely. All patients regained the capability of undertaking mormal cativities. None experienced rebleeding or neuroparalysis. Conclusion Direct microsurgery via this is approach is an ideal treatment of ICCAAns. 6 refs.展开更多
