Stop and go traffic that leads to oscillate traffic flow frequently is observed on congestion flow. Unexpected reasons such as lane – changing maneuvers, lower speeds of leader vehicle and moving bottleneck cause stop and go traffic and amplifying delay and environment impacts. Stop and go traffic exactly can’t be modeled by traffic models, and also car following models based on kinematic flow ...

ABSTRACT Springs of the Vacacaí-Mirim river basin, in Atlantic Forest biome, are protected by law because they provide an environmental service through water supply. No study provided identification, estimates and information about seasonality resilience conditions these springs, which supply central region state Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. This monitored headwater flow volume interpreted result...

The immiscible displacement of oil by water through a porous and permeable reservoir rock can be described by the use of a fractional flow curves (fw versus Sw). Water flooding project parameters can be obtained from the fractional flow curve. However, developing a representative fractional flow curve for a specific reservoir can be quite challenging when fluid and special core analysis data is...

The reliability and applicability of hydrological models within ecohydrological frameworks are major concerns. Two multi-objective model calibration strategies were formulated to achieve a balanced representation ecologically relevant hydrologic indices. approaches employed: 1) performance-based method constraining the targeted indices 2) an unconstrained signature-based explicitly incorporatin...
