The work reported here presents a methodology based on a two-fluid model to assess the degree of influence of various geometric and control features of an urban network on the quality of traffic service. The two-fluid model ...

In this paper, the wear resistance and antifriction of epsilon phase layer and diffusion layer of gas nitrided D2 steel and M2 steel have been studied. The changes m wear mechanism of epsilon phase under the load from 20N ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate traffic flow characteristics at off-ramp junctions in Iranian expressways. The study was conducted on the traffic behavior in isolated off-ramp vicinity of 6-lane expressways. ...

In this paper the flow behaviour over a number of car bodies is studied. For this purpose the unsteady 2-D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations have been applied. After averaging and nondimensionalizing the equations, ...

Over the last few years, the problem of voltage stability has received a lot of attraction from the power system community. This type of stability is now a major concern for utilities in both planning and operating conditions. ...
