This paper presents a new object-oriented simulation model to describe tandem tollbooth system in order to evaluate the operational performance of toll plaza facilities. This microscopic traffic simulation model is used to enhance planning, design, operations, and management of traffic operation at toll plazas. Computational result shows that lower reaction time ratio increases the throughput c...

The present paper studies simulation of traffic flow in urban environment, microscopic traffic flow simulation models of street’ crossroads are made. The behaviour of cellular automata (CA) models is analyzed by means of such as indexes queue lengths at crossroads with traffic signals, flow rates, average velocities on different roads. The following indicators characterize traffic situations in...

background and objectives: leptospirosis is considered to be the most widespread zoonotic disease in the world and can infect a wide range of animals. although the prevalence of clinical leptospirosis in cats is low, they are probably exposed to leptospires excreted by wild life, rodents etc. this study was performed to determine the serologic reaction of cats to leptospires and their importanc...

background: leptospirosis is a worldwide zoonosis causedby leptospira interrogans. leptospirosis results in decreasedmilk production, abortion, stillbirth, infertility and mortality,which causes financial loss in the cattle industry. objectives:the aim of this research was to perform a serological andbacteriological study of leptospirosis in 6 industrial dairy herdsand 3 feedlots with previous ...

in this paper, we propose a sensitivity analysis for evaluating the effectiveness of recovery solutions in the case of disturbed rail operations. indeed, when failures or breakdowns occur during daily service, new strategies have to be implemented so as to react appropriately and re-establish ordinary conditions as rapidly as possible. in this context, the use of rail simulation is vital: for e...
