Pedestrians' road-crossing behavior can often interrupt traffic flow and cause vehicles queueing. In this paper, we propose some moving rules for modeling the interaction of vehicles and pedestrians. The modified visual angle car-following model is presented for the movement of vehicles with consideration of the lateral effect of waiting pedestrians. The pedestrians' behavior is summarized as c...

Performance of speech recognition systems strongly degrades in the presence of background noise, like the driving noise in the interior of a car. We aim to improve noise robustness focusing on all major levels of speech recognition: feature extraction, feature enhancement, and speech modeling. Different auditory modeling concepts, speech enhancement techniques, training strategies, and model ar...

The performance analysis of the car parking process in a parking lot with various levels of assistance is considered in the paper. The input of the model is the description of the parking lot and a Markovian description for the driver behavior, the set of computable performance measures contains the average time necessary for the user to reach the desired destination, the amount of cars moving ...

The platform of a microscopic traffic simulation provides an opportunity to study the driving behavior vehicles on roadway system. Compared traditional conventional cars with human drivers, car-following behaviors autonomous (AVs) and connected (CAVs) would be quite different hence require additional modeling efforts. This paper presents thorough review literature models used in prevalent micro...

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells can produce durable remissions in hematologic malignancies that are not responsive to standard therapies. Yet the use of CAR T cells is limited by potentially severe toxicities. Early case reports of unexpected organ damage and deaths following CAR T-cell therapy first highlighted the possible dangers of this new treatment. CAR T cells can potentially dam...

1 In natural traffic flow, the information from preceding vehicles determines driver behavior predominantly. 2 With the availability of connected vehicle technologies (CVT), drivers can receive information from both 3 preceding and following vehicles. This creates new opportunities for vehicle coordination and control at 4 the microscopic level based on bi-directional information. Although the ...

In this paper numerical modeling of fire development in a single compartment railway passenger car has been performed using the FDS software. The simulation was focused on dynamic calculation temperature field and heat release rate. Obtained results were compared with experimental satisfactory agreement detected. It can be concluded that used for simulating different scenarios cars.
