Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCar Safety System Using Fuzzy LogicMazin Al-Hadidi, Yasir Khalil Ibrahim, Yarob Adnan IstitiehNowadays everybody can recognize the huge increasing of car numbers on roads. Day after day, this increasing may be an indicator for changing and development. This put a lot of challenges on people and governments. One of these challenges is car accidents and there bad effects. The main aim of our proposal is to help our society to decrease car … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,157 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTraffic Signal Using Smart Agent SystemCheonshik Kim, You-Sik HongIn this research, we propose an electro-sensitive traffic light using the smart agent algorithm to reduce traffic congestion and traffic accidents. The multi-agent system approach can provide a new and preferable solution. The proposed method adaptively controls the cycle of traffic signals even though the traffic volume varies. Consequently, we reduce the car waiting time and start-up delay time using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLagrangian Micromixing Models for Concentration Fluctuations: An OverviewPaolo Monti, Giovanni Leuzzi, Andrea AmicarelliThis study presents a brief overview of the main features, theoretical formulations and validation tests of some Lagrangian micromixing models, currently used for estimations of the ensemble mean and the turbulent fluctuations of concentration. Their application fields regards several pollutant dispersion phenomena such as: accidents (power or production plants, terroristic attacks, hydrocarbons storage and transport, extraordinary emissions), odours (power plants … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 28 Dec 2012 · 6,779 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRisk Factors to Alcohol Law Violations in the Community: Quasi-Experimental StudyWuttiphong Phakdeekul, Pramote Thongkrajai, Peem Eiamprapai, Manop KanatoProblem statement: Alcohol-related health problems such as chronic and acute diseases, accidents/injuries and social problems are well recognized. Although many countries including Thailand enact laws to control alcohol problems, missing data in Thailand cannot reveal efficacy of law enforcement and compliance with the public. The aim of this study was to investigate the proportion of Thai people violating alcohol laws … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 22 Oct 2011 · 7,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Earthquakes on Some Kind of BuildingsJ. Alberto Escobar S., J. Antonio Mendoza, Roberto Gómez M.A new method that simplifies the current static seismic torsion design procedure for buildings is proposed. Distribution of the shear forces among the storey-resistant elements designed by torsion and of the factors which affect the design eccentricity, specially accidental eccentricity, are studied. It is demonstrated that the effect of accidental eccentricity is always additive for the structural elements. There is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,347 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Note on the Marine Policy of the Ferry Sewol-Ho Disaster in KoreaJoung Keun Cho, Seok YoonThe passenger ship Sewol-ho traveling from the port of Incheon to Jeju island tragically capsized and sank off west coast of Jindo island in April of 2014. Of 476 passengers and crew on board the ship, just 172 were rescued and 294 are confirmed dead while 10 bodies remain missing. The tragedy is man made and unparalleled in modern Korean … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 27 May 2015 · 7,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Detection and Mitigation of Rushing Attacks in VANETs Using RAID: A Novel Intrusion Detection SystemVamshi Krishna Kapu, Ganesh Reddy KarriThe vehicle manufacturing hub has evolved over the last decade with the emergence of self-driving vehicles and human-driven vehicles that use the concept of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Vehicular Ad Hoc Network (VANET) is a subset of Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) that allows vehicles to communicate with one another and the Road Side Unit (RSU). VANET has been a game … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 9 · 26 Aug 2023 · 5,746 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComprehensive Assessment of Spatial Distribution of Road-Network Vulnerability in South AsiaPan Yuqi, Jiang Penghui, Li Manchun, Chen DengshuaiUnexpected phenomena-natural disasters, accidents and wars-can disrupt regional traffic systems because of the incapacities of road networks to sustain inflicted impacts. Therefore, the assessment of road-network vulnerability becomes integral to traffic-safety-maintenance and accident-prevention procedures. This study demonstrates the development of a comprehensive network system based on suggested improvements in node extraction, road construction and network attribution. An indicator system for … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 6 · 24 Dec 2021 · 6,446 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractDemonstration of the Structural Resiliency of Damaged Sentryglas Laminated Heat Strengthened Glass Fins in Full Scale TestingFred Veer, Diana de Krom, Rob NijsseA unique structural design was made for the glass façade of the Co-Creation Center building in Delft. The roof is completely carried by the glass fins. The fins are laterally stabilized by being included in the triple glazed façade. To certify the safety of the design full scale tests on the fins were done at Delft University of Technology. Due … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2021 · 6,320 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbout Supersonic Flight and Mach 3 FlyingRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuAerospace-BAC Concorde was a supersonic passenger aircraft. It was the result of a government treaty between the French and British governments, combining the efforts of Aerospace and British Aircraft Corporation. With only 20 aircraft built in total, the cost of the development phase was a major economic failure. In addition, Air France and British Airways were subsidized by the government … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2020 · 8,926 accessesView PDFCite
