Optothermal shaping of lamb waves with square and spiral phase fronts

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Janez Rus, Aleksi Antoine Bossart

We introduce a Lamb-wave medium with tunable propagation velocities, which are controlled by a two-dimensional heating pattern produced by a laser beam. We utilized it to demonstrate that waves in an appropriately designed medium can propagate in the form ...

A survey on the perceived need and value of decision-support tools for joint mitigation of air pollution and climate change in cities

Julia Schmale

Decision-support tools are increasingly popular for informing policy decisions linked to environmental issues. For example, a number of decision-support tools on transport planning provide information on expected effects of different measures (actions, pol ...

Dynamical Efficiency in congested road networks

Leonardo Bellocchi

The main topological properties of a transportation network can be characterized using different criteria such as structure, the degree distribution of nodes, connectivity and some clustering aspects. Efficiency is a property of a network that identifies t ...

Improving simulation predictions of wind around buildings using measurements

Didier Vernay

Wind behavior in urban areas is receiving an increasing amount of interest from city planners and architects. In the context of Singapore, knowledge of wind behavior helps to improve building ventilation and, on a larger scale, urban ventilation. Computati ...

Improving simulation predictions of wind around buildings using measurements through system identification techniques

Ian Smith, Didier Vernay

Wind behavior in urban areas is receiving increasing interest from city planners and architects. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are often employed to assess wind behavior around buildings. However, the accuracy of CFD simulations is often u ...

Entre la ingeniería y la antropología: hacia un sistema de indicadores integrado sobre transporte público y movilidad

Regina Witter

Designing and implementing a public transport system that enables equal access conditions to daily opportunities is a central challenge in our cities today. In this framework, a wide array of issues is incorporated, particularly a social dimension of trans ...

Emergency Vehicle Prioritization using Vehicle-To-Vehicle Communication

Emergency vehicles need to reach their destination as fast as possible. They deserve the highest priority at intersections. Therefore, they are allowed to use bus lanes and pass red lights at traffic light systems. Nevertheless, for emergency vehicles it i ...

A hybrid travel time prediction framework for planned motorway roadworks

In this paper we propose a hybrid motorway travel time prediction framework aimed at providing pre-trip travel information in case of roadworks. The framework utilises a first order macroscopic traffic flow model to predict the consequences in travel time ...

An Integrative Approach to Light- and Heavy-Weighted Route Planning Problems

The single-source shortest path problem (SSSP) frequently arises in practical applications of todays Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). E.g. for route planning or traffic assignment, several variants of Dijkstra’s algorithm or the A* algorithm have been ...
