متن کاملEnergy-efficient envelope design for high-rise apartments
The energy required to create a comfortable living environment in high-density cities in hot and humid climates usually demands a substantial electricity usage with an associated environmental burden. This paper describes an integrated passive design approach to reduce the cooling requirement for high-rise apartments through an improved building envelope design. The results show that a saving o...
متن کاملBenchmarking Hong Kong and China energy codes for residential buildings
Mandatory energy codes to curb energy use of residential buildings have been formally launched in China for more than two decades but little has been publicized in literature. Similar codes are not available for residential buildings in Hong Kong, but most residential buildings in Hong Kong, especially public housing estates, are HK-BEAM certified to demonstrate their compliance with regulatory...
متن کاملStrategic Service Network Design for DHL Hong Kong
We developed a two-phase network planning methodology to design a service network for DHL(HK) based on two measures of service performance: service coverage and service reliability. The methodology consists of first using an optimization model to determine a least-cost distribution network, which forms the basis of a simulation model for analyzing the network's operational characteristics. It t...
متن کاملHong Kong.
We develop an equilibrium model to analyze the role of the media in electoral competition. When policy payoffs are state-dependent, party policies do not converge to the median voter’s ideal policy if the media report only party policies. News analysis about the state, though possibly biased, can discipline off-equilibrium deviations and make the parties adopt more centrist policies. Since vote...
