An Integrated Decision Support Model for Evaluating Public Transport Quality

Sarbast Moslem, Ahmad Alkharabsheh, Karzan Ismael, Szabolcs Duleba • Applied Sciences (2020)

Big cities suffer from serious complex problems such as air pollution, congestion, and traffic accidents. Developing public transport quality in such cities is considered an efficient remedy to obviate these critical issues. This paper aims...

Effects of Titanate Coupling Agent on Engineering Properties of Asphalt Binders and Mixtures Incorporating LLDPE-CaCO3 Pellet

Mohd Rosli Mohd Hasan, Zhanping You, Mohd Khairul Idham Mohd Satar, Muhammad Naqiuddin Mohd Warid et al. • Applied Sciences (2018)

This study was initiated to evaluate the performance of asphalt binders and mixtures incorporating linear low-density polyethylene- calcium carbonate (LLDPE-CaCO3) pellet, either with or without titanate coupling agent. The detailed manufac...

A study on de-icing for railway turnouts using 250kHz-200W-class induction heating system

Hyeong-Seok Oh, Chan-Bae Park, Seung-Hwan Lee, Jae-Bum Lee et al. • AIP Advances (2019)

In this paper, to complement the capability of the existing heating system using an electric-heating wire for melting snow and ice in railway turnouts, 250kHz-200W-class Induction Heating (IH) system was designed. The IH system consists of ...

ELF and VLF signatures of sprites registered onboard the low altitude satellite DEMETER

J. Błęcki, J. Błęcki, M. Parrot, R. Wronowski • Annales Geophysicae (2009)

We report the observation of ELF and VLF signature of sprites recorded on the low altitude satellite DEMETER during thunderstorm activity. At an altitude of ~700 km, waves observed on the E-field spectrograms at mid-to-low latitudes duri...

Excitation thresholds of field-aligned irregularities and associated ionospheric hysteresis at very high latitudes observed using SPEAR-induced HF radar backscatter

D. M. Wright, R. S. Dhillon, T. K. Yeoman, T. R. Robinson et al. • Annales Geophysicae (2009)

On 10 October 2006 the SPEAR high power radar facility was operated in a power-stepping mode where both CUTLASS radars were detecting backscatter from the SPEAR-induced field-aligned irregularities (FAIs). The effective radiated power of...

Observations on Stratospheric-Mesospheric-Thermospheric temperatures using Indian MST radar and co-located LIDAR during Leonid Meteor Shower (LMS)

R. Selvamurugan, R. Selvamurugan, R. Selvamurugan, C. V. Devasia et al. • Annales Geophysicae (2002)

The temporal and height statistics of the occurrence of meteor trails during the Leonid meteor shower revealed the capability of the Indian MST radar to record large numbers of meteor trails. The distribution of radio meteor trails du...

Anomalous effect in Schumann resonance phenomena observed in Japan, possibly associated with the Chi-chi earthquake in Taiwan

M. Hayakawa, K. Ohta, A. P. Nickolaenko, A. P. Nickolaenko et al. • Annales Geophysicae (2005)

The Schumann resonance phenomenon has been monitored at Nakatsugawa (near Nagoya) in Japan since the beginning of 1999, and due to the occurance of a severe earthquake (so-called Chi-chi earthquake) on 21 September 1999 in Taiwan we have...

Settlement process of radioactive dust to the ground inferred from the atmospheric electric field measurement

M. Yamauchi, M. Takeda, M. Makino, T. Owada et al. • Annales Geophysicae (2012)

Radioactive materials from the accident at Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant (FNPP) in March 2011 spread over a large area, increasing the atmospheric electric conductivity by their ionizing effect, and reducing the vertical (downwa...

Generation of layering in the upper arctic troposphere away from the jet stream

A. Karpetchko, A. Karpetchko, E. Kyro, P. von der Gathen • Annales Geophysicae (2003)

Ozone sounding databases for two stations, So-dankylä (67° N, 27° E) and Ny-Ålesund (79° N, 12° E) were used in order to investigate the generation of layering in the upper and middle troposphere of the Arctic. We concentrated on dry,...

top-ii-vol: Massively Parallel Scalable Meshing for Seismic Risk Assessment of Nuclear Sites

Badri M.A., Bourcier C., Foerster E. • EPJ Web of Conferences (2024)

High performance computing is widely used for conducting high-resolution geophysics Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations. These simulations are crucial for risk assessment at nuclear sites and help gain deeper insights into underlying ph...

Spatial random downscaling of rainfall signals in Andean heterogeneous terrain

A. Posadas, L. A. Duffaut Espinosa, C. Yarlequé, M. Carbajal et al. • Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics (2015)

Remotely sensed data are often used as proxies for indirect precipitation measures over data-scarce and complex-terrain areas such as the Peruvian Andes. Although this information might be appropriate for some research requirements, the ext...
