Headquarter Office Tower @ Kunming, China Nvuca-19414 Project Information HEADQUARTER OFFICE TOWER @ KUNMING, CHINA NVUCA-19414 PROJECT INFORMATION Project Name: OCT(Overseas Chinese Town) Headquarter Office Tower @ Kunming, China NVUCA-19414 Project Identification Number: The Intersection of Lianda St.& Chunrong E Rd, Chenggong District, Kunming City,Yunnan Province, China Project Location: Unbuilt Architecture Project Category: Commercial Type of the Project: 1,032,259 SF (95,900 sqm) Gross Building Area: About $400 Million Estimated Cost: Office Space: 269,000 SF Programming Requirement: Hotel: 269,000 SF Apartment: 420,000 SF Commercial: 74,259 SF Underground Parking: 575 parking stalls OCT (Overseas Chinese Town) Group Co.,Ltd. is a large-scale enterprise in China, with leading business sectors in real-estate, tourism, Project Intention and Concept: urban complex development, theme hotel development, cultural and creative industries, and so on. This project served as a competition entry, submitted to the International Consultation on Concept Design of the OCT Group Headquarter in Kunming, Yunnan, China. OCT Headquarter Office Tower @ Kunming is a proposed mixed-use skyscraper-a new landmark, providing a soaring new addition to Kunming rising skyline and displaying the images of OCT Group all around. The intention of the design is not only grounded in its form. It is influenced from the deep thinking of OCT’s corporate culture - ‘Quality Life Creators’. The project takes inspirations from the local landscape in Yunnan. While lamenting the excitement of Yunnan tourism, from Dianchi Lake to Stone Forest and from terraces to camellia, the design team is also experiencing OCT’s philosophy of ‘Relying on nature and people-oriented’. The design pushes this ideology with the cooperation of the interior and exterior, both interactively and fluently. These design strategies provide a rich experience of nature for the people in many ways. The design is rooted in the functional aspects and put four major programs separately within the twin-towers. The towers are displaced and tilted in order to provide maximum natural sunlight and views. In each tower, sky lobbies has been added, with elevated landscape to enrich how one experience the facade. At its core, the design is inspired by the experience of people, with landscape elements at the fore front, likening moving through the building to how one moves through nature. OCT GROUP KUNMING HEADQUARTER OFFICE TOWER SUSTAINABLE DESIGN INTENT A multitude of sustainable elements are designed into this one million+ square foot building to maximize energy efficiency and provide ample natural light and open spaces on the interior. Building Integrated Photovoltaics Sustainable Strategies: • SOLAR SHADING • SOLAR ORIENTATION • LOW-E GLAZING Roof • RAINWATER HARVESTING GARDEN Garden • ZERO VOC Sun • PHOTOVOLTAICS Shading • DAYLIGHTING • NATURAL VENTILATION • VERTICAL GREENING SYSTEM Natural • ROOF GARDEN Ventilation Sky Lobby Callout • GEOTHERMAL HEAT PUMP SYSTEM • CHILLED BEAMS AND CEILINGS • SITE SOURCED MATERIAL Utilizing Landscape as Air Filter Geothermal Heat Pump System OCT GROUP KUNMING HEADQUARTER OFFICE TOWER MATERIAL SELECTION Key Materials (Exterior) - Granite, Folded Metal Panel and Glazing (with varying levels of opacity) Yunnan is situated in a mountainous area with vast resources of stone material. The granite in the tower podium blends with the design of the space and form, providing rich experience of nature when paired with the water feature and plant elements. The glazing panels make up the skin of the tower, and form a faceted pattern, reflecting the landmark of Stone Forest in Yunnan. Key Materials (Interior) - Carpet, Dry Wall and Succulent Wall The patterns of the capet, dry wall, succulent wall and other elements are all designed with the inspiration of the local landscape of Yunnan, intended to further complement the “Terrace”, “ Camilla” and “Stone Forest” concept. The hanging elements, such as lighting fixtures, bring the cloud expression to people visiting this tower.

Lakes, snowy mountains, Terrace - a landscape created by rice farming in mountainous terrain, Stone Forest - eroded vertical pinnacles of limestone, and exotic flowers are famous tourist attractions of Yunnan. In addition to being geographically diverse, Yunnan is also celebrated for being a cultural melting pot. The project takes inspiration from the local landscape in Yunnan. While lamenting the DIANCHI LAKE excitement of Yunnan tourism from Dianchi Lake to Stone Forest and from terraces to camellia, the design team seeks to embody philosophy of ‘Relying on nature and people-oriented’.

    GLOBAL METRO PROJECTS REPORT 2012 Metropolitan railways (metros) are high capacity electric transport systems that operate on dedicated routes, and can thereby achieve high service speed and frequency. Over the last few years, metros (also known as subway, underground or tube) have evolved as an efficient and effective urban mobility solution in addressing the growing concerns of urbanisation and climate change. This is supported by the fact that despite high capital requirements the sector witnessed a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7 per cent between 2005 and 2010. In high density urban areas, metros form the backbone of integrated public transport systems and offer proven economic, social and environmental benefits. Given the huge investment requirement and long life span, metro systems have always been a driving force for technological and financial innovations. Government and metro operators are constantly seeking solutions to improve reliability and customer service, lower fuel and maintenance costs, as well as increase efficiency and safety levels in operations. The Global Metro Projects Report provides updated information on the world's top 101 metro projects that present significant capital investment opportunities. These projects have a total existing network length of about 8,900 km and a proposed length of over 8,000 km. The report covers 51 countries representing about 80 per cent of the world’s gross domestic product. It presents the key information required to assess investment opportunities in the development of new lines, extension and upgrade of existing lines, rolling stock procurement and refurbishment, power and communication systems upgrades, fare collection, as well as station construction and refurbishment.

  • Delineation of the Urban-Rural Boundary Through Data Fusion: Applications to Improve Urban and Rural Environments and Promote Intensive and Healthy Urban Development
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article Delineation of the Urban-Rural Boundary through Data Fusion: Applications to Improve Urban and Rural Environments and Promote Intensive and Healthy Urban Development Jun Zhang * , Xiaodie Yuan, Xueping Tan and Xue Zhang School of Architecture and Planning, Yunnan University, Kunming 650500, China; [email protected] (X.Y.); [email protected] (X.T.); [email protected] (X.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: As one of the most important methods for limiting urban sprawl, the accurate delineation of the urban–rural boundary not only promotes the intensive use of urban resources, but also helps to alleviate the urban issues caused by urban sprawl, realizing the intensive and healthy development of urban cities. Previous studies on delineating urban–rural boundaries were only based on the level of urban and rural development reflected by night-time light (NTL) data, ignoring the differences in the spatial development between urban and rural areas; so, the comprehensive consideration of NTL and point of interest (POI) data can help improve the accuracy of urban–rural boundary delineation. In this study, the NTL and POI data were fused using wavelet transform, and then the urban–rural boundary before and after data fusion was delineated by multiresolution segmentation. Finally, the delineation results were verified. The verification result shows that the accuracy of Citation: Zhang, J.; Yuan, X.; Tan, X.; delineating the urban–rural boundary using only NTL data is 84.20%, and the Kappa value is Zhang, X. Delineation of the 0.6549; the accuracy using the fusion of NTL and POI data on the basis of wavelet transform is Urban-Rural Boundary through Data 93.2%, and the Kappa value is 0.8132.

This paper involved the distribution of Paragonimus in Jinping country and Baoshan city, Yunnan province. In this experiment, the metacercariae, excysted metacercariae, eggs, adult worms were obtained from different hosts were observed and measured. Cats have been described as the appropriate denitive host of paragonimus sp., which are closed to P. cheni according to morphology. Especially the ovaries of adult worms are few and has no third branches. With SEM observation, their spines in the surface are single, a sharp-pointed knife or half-moon in shape and the end of a few of spines are bifurcate. While the clustered sequences strains of this study in the ITS2 tree clustered of Yunan is out sider of P. skirjabini complex and have the genetically greater distances than other isolates of the P. skrjabini complex. Therefore, the Paragonimus sp. of this study from Jinping County and Baoshan city are the same subspecies of P.
