The widespread commercial availability of plug-in Electric Vehicles (EVs) in recent years motivates policies to encourage EV adoption and infrastructure to cope with the increasing number of EVs. We present an agent-based EV ecosystem model that incorporates EV adoption and usage with spatial and temporal considerations and that can aid different EV industry stakeholders such as policymakers, u...

objective: different categories are available for estimating of radiation dose. radioisotopes with the same energy and almost the same physical properties have similar effects. monte carlo technique is a computerized method based on mathematical simulation of physical processes. the main purpose of this study is to show that beta particles are not able to penetrate deep into the water. also dif...

There were 6 severe haze events over a large area of the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) region in January 2013. In this study, based on the hourly concentrations of trace gases and PM2.5 at 10 observation stations (8 city stations, 1 regional background station and 1 island station) during Jan. 1–31, 2013 as well as the concentrations of water-soluble ions at 5 stations (4 city stations and 1 region...

Urban traffic analysis is crucial for traffic forecasting systems, urban planning and, more recently, various mobile and network applications. In this paper, we analyse urban traffic with network and statistical methods. Our analysis is based on one big bus dataset containing 45 million bus arrival samples in Helsinki. We mainly address following questions: 1. How can we identify the areas that...

In present study a total of 1,456 specimens (428 males, 534 females and 494 unidentified small individuals) of T. ilisha were collected between, Jan. 2013 and Dec, 2014, 20 specimens of each monthly samples were isolated in the study area. Five stations were chosen, starting from the city of Al-FAW in the estuary section of the river to the northern-most station in the Al Hammar Marsh's (the cu...

I nformation that facilitates efficient movement through transit facilities provided by station architecture or by signs is a crucial design factor affecting such issues as passenger security, convenience, and the desire to use transit. The information aspect of station design can also have a major impact on capital and operating costs, The information needs of passengers in transit facilities,...

Numerous pedestrians interact with the subway station space by finding entrances into this closed area to use system; further, they may transfer transportation facilities or complex functions nearby, such as commercial. Many studies examine pedestrian behaviors in stations, but most focus on special situations disasters and evacuation. Because it is important analyze gait patterns everyday situ...

The lift station is becoming increasingly common as a component of the sewerage systems of Indiana. Cities and towns that have operated for years without the necessity of a lift station (other than one integral with sewage treatment plant) are finding it necessary to include a lift station in plans for extension of sewers. Those cities and towns which have not yet found it necessary to include ...

Synergies between shopping and public transit have long been noted, with main streets emerging along tram lines malls attached to train stations. The shopping-transit synergy is also at the core of transit-oriented development (TOD), a widespread planning approach urban sustainability. However, there lack morphological research investigating how clusters around stations fine-geographic scale. T...

Taking Handan City (the south of Northern China) as an example, and making use of the environmentally friendly materials of Handan Environmental Monitor Station in 2013-2014, the surface observational data of Handan Meteorological Station and the sounding data of Xingtai station, combined with the integrated analysis of numerical prediction and simulation, this paper shows that, in 2014, the ai...
