  1. This talk focuses on the principles of 4D-STEM based electron nanodiffraction techniques for defect, strain and short-range ordering analysis using electron diffuse scattering [8, 9]. We review recent progress made in scanning electron nanodiffraction (SEND) data collection, new algorithms based on cepstral analysis, and machine learning based electron DP analysis. These progresses will be highlighted using defect detection, and short-range ordering analysis as application examples. The materials of the study are the medium entropy alloy, CrCoNi, which has exceptional low-temperature mechanical strength and ductility. We will show how SEND helps our understanding of non-random chemical mixing in a CrCoNi alloy, resulting from short-range ordering, behind the mechanical strength in CrCoNi and how these developments provide general opportunities for an atomistic-structure study in advanced alloys.

  2. Urban greenery is a natural solution to cool cities and provide comfort, clean air and significant social, health and economic benefits. This paper aims to present the latest progress on the field of greenery urban mitigation techniques including aspects related to the theoretical and experimental assessment of the greenery cooling potential, the impact on urban vegetation on energy, health and comfort and the acquired knowledge on the best integration of the various types of greenery in the urban frame. Also to present the recent knowledge on the impact of climate change on the cooling performance of urban vegetation and investigate and analyse possible technological solutions to face the impact of high ambient temperatures.
