For all road managers, inclement weather events are a source of uncertainty that can affect traffic operations and safety. Regarding safety, various studies reveal significant effects of adverse weather conditions on the frequency and severity of crashes. ...
A classical way to represent vehicle interactions at merges at the microscopic scale is to combine a gap-acceptance model with a car-following algorithm. However, in congested conditions (when a queue spills back on the major road), outputs of such a combi ...
The wrinkling and delamination of stiff thin films adhered to a polymer substrate have important applications in “flexible electronics.” The resulting periodic structures, when used for circuitry, have remarkable mechanical properties because stretching or ...
This article presents a computationally efficient technique for the macroscopic (equation-based) network loading of microscopic (simulation-based) travel demand. It combines the expressive power of microsimulations as sampling tools for highly heterogeneou ...
We report on microscopic observation of solvation by argon atoms of excited states of an ethylenic-like mol., TDMAE (tetrakis dimethylaminoethylene). Two exptl. methods were used: gas phase dynamics for the observation of the evolution through excited stat ...
Microscopic organisms in aquatic environments are continuously exposed to a variety of physical and chemical conditions. Traditionally, it is accepted that due to their small size the physiology of microscopic organisms is not affected by the moving fluid ...
We report magnetic-susceptibility, specific-heat, and Raman-scattering investigations of alpha-TeVO4 containing V-O edge-sharing chains. These chains promote a system of ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg alternating exchange chains with p ...
Recent advances in nanotechnology led to the development of various nanostructures especially that of carbon-based nanomaterials (CBNs) for industrial and biomedical uses. As a result, the production as well as the human exposure to these materials will in ...
In saturated bentonite, free water is hosted in the meso- and macropores. Microscopic characterization of free water and the associated pore structure is very difficult because of the swelling- and shrinking-behaviour of montmorillonite. In this article, w ...
We report on the temperature stability of N@C-60 peapods using electron spin resonance. The atomic nitrogen escapes at higher temperatures in the peapod than in the crystalline form. We also report on the synthesis of novel magnetic fullerene peapod, a ful ...
