Spatial Integration in China's Pork Markets, 1999-2009
… The change has been led by increases in vertical integration, increases in domestic and foreign investments, and government subsidies. Despite these changes, small backyard operations still constitute a large share of production, and concerns exist as to whether the Chinese marketing system with …

Eine hybride Methode zur Berechnung von Liapunow-Exponenten
… QR method with more recent methods that use spatial integration with respect to an invariant ergodic measure. We also investigate error expansions for the approximation of the exponents given by hybrid method.

Road Infrastructure and Rural Poverty in Ethiopia
… Towards achieving these objectives, the role of spatial integration of markets and the efficiency with which these markets operate are considerably important, as these factors shape the structure of incentives and the level of opportunities open to the rural poor. As a result, factors that hinder …

An analysis of spatial development paradigm for enhancing regional integration within national and it’s supporting spatial systems in Africa
The global aim of this research is to postulate a spatial development paradigm for regional integration in developing countries - more specifically, the research prospects to conceptualize form-based spatial planning theory for Africa. This was considered necessary on two grounds: first, the need …

Analysis of metal matrix composite structures using a micromechanical constitutive theory
… of the numerical solution, such as the temporal integration of the inelastic strains and the spatial integration of bending moments are addressed. Numerical results are presented which illustrate the nonlinear response of metal matrix composites subjected to extensional and bending loads. …

Of airports and architecture : exercises in public form
… and urban typology typically lack physical and spatial integration with their urban context. Contrary to the city, airports have evolved into semi-autonomous spaces and products of political and economic conflicts between local and global constituencies, generating physical and spatial barriers, …

Temporal encoding in the visual system
A new model for temporal and spatial encoding in the visual system is developed and presented. The model indicates that spatial information is encoded in a manner similar to the encoding of temporal information. Experimental evidence related to this model is presented and analyzed. The temporal …

Integrating Spatial Transcriptomics Data for Cross-Species Molecular Region Comparison
… of different biological processes and functions. Spatially resolved transcriptomics (SRT) technologies present the ability to measure gene expression of single cells within tissues, enabling the detection of unique spatial molecular patterns in the brain. Several computational methods that rely on …

Error analysis of higher order time-domain finite element methods for the one-dimensional Maxwell's equations
… one-dimensional case is considered. The temporal integration methods utilized are the first two backward differentiation formula (BDF), second through fourth order modified extended backward differentiation formula (MEBDF), and second through fourth order explicit first stage singly diagonally …

Measuring Empowerment and Social Inclusion in Favela Upgrading Belo Horizonte, Brazil
… for social inclusion and empowerment; 1) spatial integration, 2) decision making power and 3) the creation of empowered, organized citizen groups. By outlining the steps of empowerment and social inclusion, this thesis provides a framework of measurement specific to the OP process and its …

Advancing Architecture through Shape Memory Alloy Actuators
This thesis explores the integration of Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuators into architectural design, proposing a comprehensive knowledge framework that bridges material science, responsive technologies, and architectural theory. Motivated by the ontological and experiential implications of kinetic …

Sei'ichi Shirai and subjective method of synthesis
… since Shirai did not deal with systematic spatial integration. Shirai's architecture emerged like an inevitable creation that was destined to exist. As a result, proponents of modernism who think of architecture in the context of the environment and who create space analytically in terms of …

INFLOW: Spatially Integrating Local Water Capture into Gugulethu and Surrounds, Cape Town
… water capture strategy however, needs to be spatially integrated into settlement, as argued by Dewar (2017). Stormwater infrastructure systems have however, generally been considered as purely utilitarian public works services, designed to drain water as rapidly as possible from impermeable …

IT’S THE JOURNEY, NOT THE DESTINATION: ARRAY STABILITY SUPPORTS FLEXIBLE SPATIAL MEMORY
The ability to recall a spatial layout from multiple orientations – spatial flexibility – is a challenging cognitive process, especially when the global configuration cannot be viewed from a single vantage point, as spatial information must first be integrated before it can be flexibly recalled. …

Evaluating Relationships between Mercury Concentrations in Air and in Spanish Moss (<em>Tillandsia Usneoides</em> L.)
… include high cost and lack of temporal or spatial integration. Bioindicators, however, may serve as an integrative tool to add to conventional mercury measurement techniques. Spanish moss (Tillandsia usneoides L.) is a potential bioindicator of atmospheric mercury concentration in the …

Development of a discrete numerical approach to the Fredholm Integral Method for evaluating microwave scattering by irregular hydrometeors
… departure from earlier work where the numerical integration is no longer based on expansion in a set of polynomials but based on direct spatial integration. The strength of our approach is that the computations are performed in the spatial frequency domain. As a result, the angular scattering …

CPUT & District Six - Bridging the Gap
… potential opportunities for both social and spatial integration of the educational institute to the district such that a mutually beneficial relationship is formed between the two. As a means of providing necessary historical context to the document, the first section focuses on the …

Principles governing the large-scale organization of object selectivity in ventral visual cortex
… that computational demands for acuity or spatial integration cannot account for location biases in category-selective regions, and instead suggest that experience with objects at specific retinal locations may serve as an organizing dimension. Moreover, these studies reveal systematic …
