The interactions Design Awards’ Quality of Experience Criteria (see interactions, iii.3, May+June, 1996) provide a strong foundation for evaluating human—computer interactions. Especially praiseworthy are the multidisciplinary range of the criteria, the attention to understanding how computer-based media work in their larger context, and the credence given to the relationship of the process of ...

the main design criteria of ballasted railway tracks include rail deflections, rail bending stresses, rail wheel contact stresses, sleeper bending moments and ballast sleeper contact pressures. numerous criteria have been defined for the design of ballasted railway tracks owing to the various mechanical properties of track components and their complex interaction. therefore, railway track desig...

surface and subsurface water collection in small seasonal rivers is very crucial, particularly in dry seasons. in this study a type of intake is introduced which acts as a river drainage network. an experimental model of the subsurface intake was constructed and the effective parameters such as upstream discharge, installation depth, and drain intervals were evaluated. the results showed that t...
