in this work, a molecular dynamics simulation of the transport of water - methanol mixture through the single wall carbon nanotube (swcnt) is reported. methanol and water are selected as fluid molecules since water represents a strongly polar molecule while methanol is as an intermediate between polar and strongly polar molecules. some physical properties of the methanol-water mixture such as r...

transport route planning is one of the most important and frequent activities in supply chain management. the design of information systems for route planning in real contexts faces two relevant challenges: the complexity of the planning and the lack of complete and precise information. the purpose of this paper is to nd methods for the development of transport route planning in uncertainty dec...

sediment flushing of reservoirs is an operational technique, whereby previously accumulated sediments in the reservoirs are hydraulically removed by accelerated flow when the bottom desiltingoutlets of the dam are opened. in this research, the process of sediment flushing is simulated by a three dimensional numerical model in which sediment and flow interaction are reflected in the reservoirs. ...

pure rockfill dams have been found specific attention in watershed management and flood control, recently. in addition to hydraulic specific features, one of the important advantages of these structures is their consistency with nature and environment. normally, floods are accompanied with high sediment loads which may enter the body of dam. when flow through dam body governed by hydraulic grad...

the demand for fossil fuel in the transport sector is constantly increasing and transportation is ranked amongst the highest greenhouse emitting sectors globally. today, tackling co2 emissions from road transport a widely discussed topic and constitutes a milestone towards reaching a sustainable, carbon neutral economy. this challenge is being described in various initiatives adopted in the eur...

background the most accidents can be directly attributed to human factors. hence, more traffic crashes result from driver malfunctioning which from among them, the driver behavior is a proximal factor in the road traffic injuries causation chain. objectives this study aims to investigate relationship between aberrant driving behaviors questionnaire (dbq factors) and self-report crashes involvem...

In classical transport models, it is always assumed that parameters such as the distance from each supply node to each demand node or the cost of transferring goods from one node to another, as well as quantities such as supply and demand are definite and definite amounts. But in real matters, considering these assumptions is not logical. On the other hand, there may be a real problem in mathem...
