Traffic viscosity due to speed variation: Modeling and implications
The analogy of traffic flow to water flow has been well known. But some essential differences exist, e.g. anisotropy, viscosity, and extent to which conservation law holds. Not surprisingly, this is due to different manners in which water particles and vehicles move and interact. In this study, we investigate and model the viscous behavior exhibited by traffic flow. We attribute the viscous eff...
متن کاملFrom hackers to hacktivists: speed bumps on the global superhighway?
This article traces the emergence of the new social movement of hacktivism from hacking and questions its potential as a source of technologically-mediated radical political action. It assesses hacktivism in the light of critical theories of technology that question the feasibility of reengineering technical systems to more humane ends. The predecessor of hacktivism, hacking, is shown to contai...
متن کاملStudy of physio-psychological effects on traffic wardens due to traffic noise pollution; exposure-effect relation
BACKGROUND Noise pollution has increased to alarming extent in most of the urban areas in Pakistan. It is assumed even more perilous than air and water pollution due to its direct acute and chronic physio-psychological effects. The objective of this study is to analyze and evaluate the psychological and physiological effects caused by traffic noise on traffic wardens and to find relation type b...
متن کاملValuing Reduction of Risk of Mortality Due to Traffic Accidents
Background and Aim: The trade-off between monetary wealth and fatal safety risks is explained by the value of statistical life, an efficient tool widely used to evaluate projects and allocate appropriate resources for road safety. The objective of this study was to estimate the statistical significance of life in order to improve road safety in the city of Ardabil, Iran. Materials and Methods:...
متن کاملVehicle Cabin Noise Simulation due to High-frequencies Stimulation
In this paper, the acoustic environment in a vehicle cabin under the influence of highfrequencies aerodynamic sources has been studied. Some panels on the windshield, the roof, the doors, the front pillars, and the floor of a vehicle simulated as input source of noise when the car is moving at high speed, i.e. 112 km/h. The status of vehicle cabin in each of these modes has been studied and com...
