La citerne el-Nabih à Alexandrie: un exemple d'utilisation de la photogrammétrie, de la lasergrammétrie et du modèle 3D sur un chantier de fouille archéologique

Parmi les grands réservoirs publics de la fin de la période médiévale, que compte encore la ville d'Alexandrie, l'un d'entre eux fait l'objet d'une étude architecturale et archéologique approfondie. Entreprise en 2003 par le Centre d'Études...

Unsteady Aerodynamic Characteristics of a High-Speed Train Induced by the Sudden Change of Windbreak Wall Structure: A Case Study of the Xinjiang Railway

Under strong winds, the effect of sudden windbreak transition (WT) on high-speed trains is severe, leading to a deterioration of train aerodynamics and sudden yawing motion of the car body. To address these problems, based on a high-speed t...

Surface Reconstruction Adopting Laser Plane of Linear Path System Registered by Parallel Constraint

A surface reconstruction technology, which is contributed from the parallel constraint between two laser planes, is introduced and achieved by a laser projector guided by a linear path system. The projection geometry is constructed by the p...

Spatiotemporal Speed Planning for Multi-Vehicle Cooperative Driving With Dynamic Following Relationships

In Autonomous Valet Parking scenarios, multiple vehicles operate cooperatively in low-speed environments where the leading-vehicle constraint may be dynamically reconstructed due to path transitions. Under such conditions, conventional spee...

An Integrated Decision Support Model for Evaluating Public Transport Quality

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...

PROPOSING A FRAMEWORK FOR ESTABLISHING A GREEN ENERGY LOGISTIC HUB: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY IN EGYPT

The International Energy Agency (IEA) has emphasized the opportunity to create "hydrogen hubs" to reduce costs associated with low-carbon hydrogen pathways. A "hub" is a region capable of aggregating hydrogen demand, typically found in coas...

Characterizing particle crushing behavior of dry granular soils by acoustic emission

This study investigates particle crushing mechanisms in granular soils during shearing through staged triaxial compression experiments performed at prescribed axial strains and varying confining stresses, integrating a high-performance acou...

Substantiation of Geometric Parameters of a Variable Inertia Moment Pulley

Purpose. The main purpose of our work is to substantiate the geometric parameters of a variable moment of inertia pulley, which can reduce the weight of a drive with such a pulley. Methodology. It was found that the masses of the pulley and...

ECONOMIC AND LEGAL GROUNDS FOR INVESTMENT IN DEVELOPMENT OF TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE

Purpose. In Ukraine, as in many countries of the world, transport is one of the most fundamental sectors of the national economy, important part of the industrial and social spheres. But in the conditions of industry reforming there are pro...

The Economic Impact of Environmentally Sustainable Transport in Germany

The economic assessment of the Environmentally Sustainable Transportation (EST) scenarios developed throughout this paper are part of Phase 3 of the overall project, which is on social and economic assessment and on devising packages of ins...

An improved Harris corner detection method for honeycomb structures

Structural defects and cell irregularity significantly impact the performance and safety of honeycomb structures. Thus, various image processing techniques have been employed to evaluate the cell shape and detect structural defects within t...

Machine Learning–Based Prediction of Organic Solar Cell Performance Using Molecular Descriptors

The performance of Organic Solar Cells (OSCs) is intrinsically linked to the molecular, electronic, and structural properties of donor and acceptor materials. This study employs various machine learning techniques, namely the Generalized Re...

The effect of freeze-thaw cycles on the frost resistance of energy tunnels in cold regions

Seasonal temperature fluctuations in cold regions induce freeze–thaw cycles that can significantly impact the structural safety and maintenance of tunnels. This study uses the Daban Mountain Tunnel as a case study to develop a full-scale nu...

Minimizing the Sum of Makespan and Total Weighted Tardiness in a No-Wait Flowshop

This paper presents a cloud theory-based iterated greedy (CTIG) algorithm for solving the no-wait flowshop scheduling problem (NWFSP) with the objective of minimizing the sum of makespan and total weighted tardiness. The performance of the ...

What is Transportation Engineering

"The branch of engineering which applies technology, science, and human factors to the planning, design, operations and management of roads, streets, bikeways, highways, their networks, terminals, and abutting lands” The objective is to pro...

TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING IN SPARSELY POPULATED AREAS

Basic research principles of transportation engineering are presented on the basis of studies concerning transportation in sparsely populated areas carried out in 1968-1983. It can be stated that, besides knowledge of general transportation...

Transportation Engineering Instructional Practices

Instructional practices in transportation engineering education are evolving, and only some of these changes have been documented in the literature. This paper provides a systematic review of journal articles and refereed conference papers ...
