In alpine valleys with strong urban development, river training works for flood safety become more and more difficult to implement because of economic and environmental constraints. Thus flood management has a great importance especially in river basins eq ...
In this study continuous simulation flood frequency predictions on the Skalka catchment in the Czech Republic (672 km 2, range of altitudes from 460 to 1041 m above sea level), are compared against summary information of rainfall characteristics, the flow ...
Vehicular Networks (VNs) seek to provide, among other applications, safer driving conditions. To do so, vehicles need to periodically broadcast safety messages providing precise position information to nearby vehicles. However, this frequent messaging (e.g ...
This paper presents a novel distributed estimation algorithm based on the concept of moving horizon estimation. Under weak observability conditions we prove convergence of the state estimates computed by any sensors to the correct state even when constrain ...
Minimal state representations are parsimonious models having no redundant states. For homogeneous reaction systems with S species, R independent reactions, p independent inlet streams and one outlet stream, a nonlinear transformation of the numbers of mole ...
This paper describes how to combine the JADE agent platform with Repast-provided simulation functions for rapidly developing ail environment for the simulation of complex agent model. The main motivation collies from our requirements concerning the simulat ...

High mountainous water resource systems are particularly sensitive to climate change impacts. The hydrological regime of such environments is strongly influenced by water accumulation in form of snow and ice and the corresponding melt processes. A modifica ...
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 ...
Floods are not only due to fatality. It is the responsibility of the human being to protect himself from heavy damages due to natural elements, and he sometimes has the chance to profit from a given situation to influence events. One of these possibilities ...
