Summary
Regional attractiveness is shaped by multiple flows, not just single ones. A multilayer network analysis reveals how capital, migration, and tourism flows interact to define European regions
Area of Science:
- Regional Economics
- Economic Geography
- Network Analysis
Background:
- Regional attractiveness is key for capital, migrant, and tourist flows.
- Existing studies often analyze single flows, neglecting their interwoven effects.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate regional attractiveness from a multi-dimensional perspective.
- To understand how diverse regional flows collectively shape European regions' attractiveness dynamics.
Main Methods:
- Analysis of eight distinct flow types across NUTS2 regions (2010-2018).
- Application of a multilayer network approach for comprehensive analysis.
- Utilizing community detection to uncover structural patterns.
Main Results:
- Multilayer analysis reveals insights missed by single-layer approaches.
- Community detection highlights the strong influence of national borders.
- Identified specific regions with significant cross-border ties.
Conclusions:
- Regional attractiveness is a complex interplay of multiple flows.
- Findings offer a nuanced understanding of territorial dynamics.
- Implications for targeted regional development and European cohesion policies.

1.1K
The Region of Convergence (ROC) is a fundamental concept in signal processing and system analysis, particularly associated with the Laplace transform. The ROC represents an area in the complex plane where the Laplace transform of a given signal converges, determining the transform's applicability and utility.
Consider a decaying exponential signal that begins at a specific time. When deriving its Laplace transform, the time-domain variable is replaced with a complex variable. This...

Regional terms describe anatomy by dividing the body parts into different regions that contain structures involved in contributing similar functions. Using these terms helps increase the accurate description and identification of the particular region of interest or region affected by the disease.
Primarily, the human body has two major regions, the axial and appendicular regions. The axial region comprises regions from the head to the abdomen and makes up the central body axis. In contrast,...

Fluid flow analysis is critical in many scientific and engineering disciplines, and two principal approaches are used to describe this flow: the Eulerian and Lagrangian methods. These methods offer different perspectives on monitoring and analyzing the motion of fluids, each with distinct advantages depending on the scenario.
The Eulerian method focuses on fixed points in space where fluid properties, such as velocity, pressure, and temperature, are observed as the fluid moves between these...

In the past, planning projects such as schools or public facilities required extensive manual effort to gather and compile data. Information such as property boundaries, soil characteristics, road networks, zoning regulations, and flood zones had to be sourced individually from courthouses, utility providers, and registry offices. Assembling these datasets into a coherent format often took several months, delaying project timelines.The introduction of Geographic Information Systems (GIS)...

The z-transform is a powerful mathematical tool used in the analysis of discrete-time signals and systems. It is a crucial tool in the analysis of discrete-time systems, but its convergence is limited to specific values of the complex variable z. This range of values, known as the Region of Convergence (ROC), is fundamental in determining the behavior and stability of a system or signal. The ROC defines the region in the complex plane where the z-transform converges, which can take various...

01:14Multicompartment Models: Overview
502
Multicompartment models are mathematical constructs that depict how drugs are distributed and eliminated within the body. They segment the body into several compartments, symbolizing various physiological or anatomical areas connected through drug transfer processes such as absorption, metabolism, distribution, and elimination.
These models offer a more comprehensive representation of drug behavior in the body than one-compartment models. They accommodate the complexity of drug distribution,...
