Re: Should cities be inside-out to reduce pollution?

A: Distance from center
B: Area at this distance
C: Inside-out's population density at this distance
D: Outside-in's population density at this distance
E: Inside-out's population at this distance
F: Outside in's total population

Code:
					
A	B	C	D	E	F
0	0	0	10	0	0
1	1	1	9	1	9
2	3	2	8	6	24
3	6	3	7	18	42
4	10	4	6	40	60
5	15	5	5	75	75
6	21	6	4	126	84
7	28	7	3	196	84
8	36	8	2	288	72
9	45	9	1	405	45
10	55	10	0	550	0
INSIDE-OUT'S TOTAL POPULATION: 1705
OUTSIDE-IN'S TOTAL POPULATION: 495

Assuming that traffic is proportional to population density along the line, I would assume that the traffic delay inside "inside-out" city is not three times as bad.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
