Estimation of Traffic Capacity at a Sightseeing Area by Network Equilibrium Theory

Traffic Network Equilibrium

The Assessment of Applying Chaos Theory for Daily Traffic Estimation

Road traffic volumes in intercity roads are generally estimated by probability functions, statistical techniques or meta-heuristic approaches such as artificial neural networks. As the road traffic volumes depend on input variables and mainly road geometrical design, weather conditions, day or night time, weekend or national holidays and so on, these are also estimated by pattern recognition te...

Network Access Capacity Estimation through Passive Traffic Measurement

This work proposes models, techniques and tools aimed at passively estimating the maximum achievable downlink network-layer bandwidth (capacity) of an access link to the Internet from inside a network. The Internet access capacity estimation by mean of passive measurements is an interesting issue from a scientific and from an industrial perspective. From a scientific perspective the problem, st...

Dynamic Traffic Network Equilibrium System

We discuss the dynamic traffic network equilibrium system problem.We introduce the equilibrium definition based on Wardrop’s principles when there are some internal relationships between different kinds of goods which transported through the same traffic network. Moreover, we also prove that the equilibrium conditions of this problem can be equivalently expressed as a system of evolutionary var...

Leaf area estimation by a simple and non-destructive method

In this study, the relation between leaf area and its dimensions was estimated using a non-destructive method. This method is based on this fact that the leaf shape does not change during the growing season. In this method, leaf area during the growing season is estimated based on the dimensions of the smallest leaf in the initial stage of plant growth or at any growth stage by measuring the le...
