Many factors influence the energy consumption of buildings, particularly those related to their design and use. Other factors, such as orientation and the nature of the surroundings, also have an influence, but these are often ignored. In this paper, we consider the influence of trees planted as...

Banded spherulite patterns are simulated in two dimensions by means of a coupled logistic map lattice model. Both target pattern and spiral pattern which have been proved to be existent experimentally in banded spherulite are obtained by choosing suitable parameters in the model. The simulation...
