Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsFORMAL VERIFICATION OF SAFETY MESSAGE DISSEMINATION PROTOCOL FOR VANETSM. A. Berlin, Sheila AnandThis paper presents a formal verification of a safety message dissemination protocol used in vehicular ad-hoc networks. It is proposed to use Road Side Units to broadcast road hazard information to vehicles travelling on highways. Quick dissemination of road hazard information, like road blocks, slippery roads and other obstacles can help to prevent road accidents and improve passenger safety. Formal … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 9 Jul 2013 · 6,858 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTAGN-IDC: Implicit Discrete Constraints for Tsunami Aware Graph Neural Networks in Spatial Evacuation RoutingSularno, Wendi Boy, Putri Anggraini et al.Tsunami evacuation route requires rapid identification of safe evacuation paths under dynamically changing hazard conditions. A major challenge is incorporating hard binary road-blockage constraints caused by tsunami inundation while maintaining end-to-end differentiability for deep learning models. Existing approaches commonly rely on continuous relaxations or stochastic sampling techniques, which either compromise physical feasibility or increase computational complexity. This study proposes the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 9 · 24 Sep 2026 · 704 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstablishing an Evacuation Network: A Path Ranking ApproachHoussein Alaeddine, Kamal Serrhini, Mindjid Maizia, Emmanuel NéronThe evacuation of population exposed to flood hazard requires the establishment of a specific transportation network. This is to compute escape routes to be taken by affected population. At evacuation time, inhabitants of affected area must be evacuated through transportation network to safety area. The main objective of this work is to provide assistance to rescue forces in terms of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 12 · 3 Dec 2019 · 7,899 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrogeological Prognosis with Regard to Realisation of the New Colle Di Tenda Road TunnelCinzia Banzato, Massimo Vincenzo Civita, Adriano Fiorucci et al.Problem statement: The doubling of Tenda pass road tunnel jointing SW France to Piedmont (Italy) was planned to penetrate a complicate rock structure in which several complex play an hydrogeologic role including carbonate-Karst aquifer between flysch impervious complexes. The main problem of the project is the presence of an hydraulic circulation feeding a spring of social and economic great importance … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,363 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlnus subcordata C.A.M. Cambium Cells Dynamics Along Transport Corridors in Hyrcanian ForestsAidin Parsakhoo, Hamid Jalilvand, Mehdi SheikhiProblem statement: In this study, we considered transport corridors and sampling aspects to be the major indicators of ecological effects on Alder (Alnus subcordata) cambium cells dynamics. Approach: Thus, 240 cores were taken from forest-facing and road-facing trunk of Alder trees along Amre, Neka and Darab Kola transport corridors in hyrcanian Forests of Iran. Results showed that the roads corridor … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,950 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesigning for Comfort and Reliability in an Intelligent Car SeatD.A. Wahab, N.F. Adull Manan, M.A. Hannan et al.Today, intelligent safety systems are installed in modern cars in view of minimising road hazards. An intelligent air bag system for example, comprised several subsystems that are integrated to include the weight sensor system, image sensor system, crash sensor system and tyre pressure monitoring system. These systems when poorly positioned into the car seat, will certainly affect comfort and reliability … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,596 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Near Real-time Early Warning System on Erosion HazardsFaisal H. Ali, Tew K. HuiWith many incidences of landslides, mudslides and erosion occurrences lately, especially in the highlands in Malaysia, properties were damaged and lives were lost. Seeing the need of resolving and minimizing such untoward incidences, a study has been embarked on developing a near real-time early warning system on erosion hazards so as to provide an early warning to the public, whenever … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,706 accessesView PDF Cite
