Especially scenarios like public safety or battle field require reliable Multicast (voice) communication. There are different ways to choose and maintain the groups of receivers. One alternative for certain use cases, especially for areas of danger, is Geocast. Using Geocast, a receiver is defined by its geographic position. Especially for mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) there are several Geoca...

The objective of this research was to analyse the tensile response three geosynthetics, apply constitutive equations, and propose values for model parameters represent nonlinear behaviour these materials in short-term, supported by statistical analysis. Data specimens a nonwoven geotextile, woven geogrid reinforcement geocomposite previously submitted mechanical damage, abrasion damage followed...

This paper provides a five-year performance evaluation of an application geogrid reinforcement in low-volume unpaved roads using dynamic cone penetrometer (DCP), plate load tests (PLT), and roadway sensing method. A Forest Service road located northern Arizona, USA, exhibited severe deterioration on the surface, creating unsafe traffic environment for vehicles. total four structural sections (1...

The mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall has been widely used globally for several decades now. study on MSE is continuously growing as well various innovations its designs and techniques. natural complexity of soil behavior makes the system challenging researchers. One factors that affect deformation structure facing system. Hence, this undertaken to investigate geogrid-reinforced wall, ha...

This paper presents the effect of geogrid tensile strength by calculating pullout resistance and geogrid-soil interaction mechanism. In order to investigate this interface, a series of pullout tests have been conducted by large scale reformed direct shear test apparatus in both cohesive and granular soils. In numerical, finite difference software FLAC3D has been carried out on experimental test...

The shear strength of geogrid-reinforced ballast is often dependent on the aperture size geogrids and nominal ballast. This paper presents a theoretical analysis based probabilistic mechanics how affects interaction between particles geogrid. Unlike past literature, in this study, properties particle distribution analysed using Weibull distribution. probability grain interlock proposed to descr...

The study of patterns crowd flows represents an emerging and expanding research field. most straightforward efficient approach to investigate the is concentrate on traffic flow. However, assessments simple point-to-point movement frequently lack universal validity, little has been conducted regularity nighttime movement. Due suspension public transportation at night, taxi orders are critical in...
