Predictability of the large relaxations in a cellular automaton model

Predictability of the Large Relaxations in a Cellular Automaton Model

A simple one-dimensional cellular automaton model with threshold dynamics is introduced. The cumulative distribution of the size of the relaxations is analytically computed and behaves as a power law with an exponent equal to −1. This coincides with the phenomenological Gutenberg-Richter behavior observed in Seismology for the cumulative statistics of earthquakes at the regional or global scale...

A Dynamic Cellular Automaton Model for Large-Scale Pedestrian Evacuation

A Deformed Cellular Automaton Model

In existing Cellular Automaton (CA) model, the cellular width is not related to vehicular velocity. However, in real condition, at road’s toll station or intersection, the introduced fixed infrastructure or pedestrians moving into vehicle lane will result in the lane narrowing, so limit the passing speed of vehicle. According to this condition, this paper presents a deformed CA model, and makes...

A Simpliied Cellular Automaton Model for City Traac a Simpliied Cellular Automaton Model for City Traac

We systematically investigate the e ect of blockage sites in a cellular automaton model for tra c ow. Di erent scheduling schemes for the blockage sites are considered. None of them returns a linear relationship between the fraction of \green" time and the throughput. We use this information for a fast implementation of a simulation of tra c in Dallas.

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
