Streets are large, diverse, and used for several (and possibly conflicting) transport modalities as well as social and cultural activities. Proper planning is essential and requires data. Manually fabricating data that represent streets (street reconstruction) is error-prone and time consuming. Automatising street reconstruction is a challenge because of the diversity, size, and scale of the de...

The Internet, which began as a vehicle for scholars to convey ideas in an open forum, in real time and free of geographic confines, currently is viewed as a World Wide Web of computer networks carrying everything from books to stock trades almost at the speed of thought. In this article, the authors raise the question of how far academics have come in applying the technology that they pioneered...

Winchcombe is a CM chondrite that fell in England on February 28, 2021. Its rapid retrieval was well characterized. Within two polished sections of Winchcombe, terrestrial phases were observed. Calcite and calcium sulfates found sample recovered from field March 6, 2021, halite observed months after its recovery driveway 2, These characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy...

The work presented aims to analyse the feasibility of reusing concrete, once demolished from a building in Tres Cantos Madrid, manufacture finishing materials for buildings, as well design procedure. first phase consists bibliographic search on reuse materials, analysing techniques adopted so far and lines work. second related acquisition data production recycling Construction Demolition Waste ...

We introduce the snowblower problem (SBP), a new optimization problem that is closely related to milling problems and to some material-handling problems. The objective in the SBP is to compute a short tour for the snowblower to follow to remove all the snow from a domain (driveway, sidewalk, etc.). When a snowblower passes over each region along the tour, it displaces snow into a nearby region....

This paper explores the similarities and differences between bicycle and motorcycle crashes with other motor vehicles. If similar treatments can be effective for both bicycle and motorcycle crashes, then greater benefits in terms of crash costs saved may be possible for the same investment in treatments. To reduce the biases associated with under-reporting of these crashes to police, property d...

They lived here, though, not in my exam room. “Eat!” Bahir commanded when we returned to the living room. It took me 3 servings to realize that clearing the plate indicated that I was still hungry and signaled Junah to heap it with more dumplings and date-and-sesame balls. I finally tried setting it down with a few forkfuls of food remaining, and my hosts nodded with satisfaction. Shortly after...

Trip distribution is an important element of traffic impact analysis and is typically performed using expert judgment. Impacts are very sensitive to this step, and for large, mixed-use developments with many parcels, trip distribution can be very time consuming and potentially error prone. Regional trip distribution, on the other hand, is generally computed using a gravity model as part of a th...
