Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimized Earthquake Evacuation Routes Using Dijkstra's Algorithm and WinQSBSandra Huarcaya Gonzales, Hugo Vega-Huerta, Gisella Luisa Elena Maquen-Niño et al.This research analyzes and generates optimal evacuation routes in the Barranco district during earthquake scenarios using the Dijkstra algorithm implemented through WinQSB. A preliminary review was conducted to establish key concepts related to earthquake dynamics, evacuation route planning, and the application of Dijkstra’s algorithm. Given its high seismic exposure and the prevalence of aging infrastructure, Barranco is considered highly vulnerable … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 9 Dec 2025 · 2,858 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Effects of Biomass Carbon Modified Bioretention Pond Fill Layer in Sponge City GardensWen Cao, Beibei ZuWith the expansion of urban green areas, the resulting increase in green waste has become the second-largest solid waste in the city. Green waste contains a lot of minerals and the recycling of its resources has become the urgent task of urban green development. Biochar technology is more in line with the concept of green environmental protection in Sponge City. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 10 Jul 2024 · 4,474 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial Analysis of Accessibility for Public Transportation, A Case Study in Jakarta, Bus Rapid Transit System (Transjakarta), IndonesiaApri Zulmi Hardi, AbdulKader Ali MuradIntegrating public transportation has become a prevalent aspect of urban expansion in developed and developing countries. There are numerous benefits associated with implementing public transportation systems within urban areas, which may serve as a viable solution to address various traffic-related issues. Nevertheless, certain nations that have adopted public transportation encounter accessibility issues affecting the efficiency of such services. The authors … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 10 · 31 Aug 2023 · 8,103 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDelay-Conscious Service Quality Constraint in IoT Sensor Networks for Smart FarmingZatin Gupta, Amit Kumar BindalThe Internet of Things (IoT) offers different services for the agriculture industry, such as monitoring and analysing real-time data related to current weather conditions, water level, irrigation requirements, growth of plant disease and health status/temperature/humidity, etc.,). The performance of IoT networks may vary due to environmental conditions and operational areas (rural area/urban area/underwater). These constraints may degrade the transmission quality … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 8 · 9 Aug 2023 · 5,390 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWhat Factors Determine Family Spending on Education in India and Does it Vary Across Well-Being Measures?Geetha Rani PrakasamThe present paper estimates the drivers of family spending on education across economic groups. The questions that are explored include: (i) Does family spending on education vary across economic groups and over time? (ii) The subsidiary question is to understand the gender bias in education spending across these groups. As a corollary to this, at which levels of education and … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 16 May 2023 · 6,527 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractGully Morphological Assessment and Anthropogenic Determinants in Urban and Rural Settlements of Upper Imo River Basin (UIRB) South Eastern NigeriaNnamdi Christian ChiboGully erosion have been proven to vary both in terms of size and number in urban and rural settlements and is caused by factors related to both human and natural phenomenon. This study assessed the gully morphological development in an urban and rural settlement with the view of finding the settlement that is more vulnerable to gully erosion development. It … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 6 · 19 Dec 2022 · 5,953 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Dust Event By RS, GIS, MODIS and Statistical Methods Among Satellite ImagesKaveh Ostad-Ali-Askari, Naimeh Rahimi, Parisa Ashrafi et al.Dust is an event that occurs in most sections of the world that leads to financial loss and harmful environmental impacts. Several factors are included in dust event incidence, some of them are natural and others are due to human processes and their impact on the environment. Thus, very critical situations are coming and it is expected that the majority … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2021 · 6,704 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLandslide Susceptibility Mapping with GIS in Nagi Dada Area of Panauti Municipality, Kavrepalanchwok District: A Comparison Between AHP and FR MethodArju Bhattarai, HimLal Shrestha, Asim Timalsina et al.Landslide Susceptibility Maps (LSM) are useful for both development planning and disaster management. Currently, LSMs are primarily created using GIS and remote sensing techniques. Landslide susceptibility mapping relies heavily on selecting and weighting causative elements based on their impact on slope instability. GIS is useful for calculating static parameters such as slope and aspect, as well as generating landslide susceptibility … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 22 Aug 2024 · 7,098 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCarbon Footprint of the Kuwaiti Public Road Transport IndustryNawaf H. Aldaihani, Hamad B. Matar, Khalefah A. Alhumaidah, Nayef Z. Al-MutairiThroughout the last fifty years, Kuwait's population has grown and its oil exploration has produced massive economic changes. That has led to high vehicle demand. As a result, air pollution is increasing in urban areas in particular. The objective of the paper was to estimate carbon emissions from road travel following IPCC guidelines and using national fuel price and sales … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 15 Dec 2020 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractComputational Analysis of Environmental Risk ConditionersBarbara Carla Coelho Batista, João Victor Dutra Balboa, Caio Vincenzo Reis Dima et al.The intense urbanization process since the 1970s, coupled with the lack of adequate housing and social policies, has led large urban centers to disordered occupations and situations of geotechnical risk. These occupations were not implemented in a technically correct manner from the point of view of civil engineering, considering landscaping, drainage and paving, as well as edification. Areas at risk … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 5 · 16 Oct 2020 · 6,797 accessesView PDFCite
