How to estimate queue length in real-time at signalized intersection is a long-standing problem. The problem gets even more difficult when signal links are congested. The traditional input–output approach for queue length estimation can only handle queues that are shorter than the distance between vehicle detector and intersection stop line, because cumulative vehicle count for arrival traffic ...

The traditional Richards' equation implies that the wetting front in unsaturated soil follows Boltzmann scaling, with travel distance growing as the square root of time. This study proposes a fractal Richards' equation (FRE), replacing the integer-order time derivative of water content by a fractal derivative, using a power law ruler in time. FRE solutions exhibit anomalous non-Boltzmann scalin...

This note is a sequel to the paper On rings on rings by Anatole Beck [ l ] . The problem we consider (originally proposed by Paul Rosenbloom) is that of characterizing the parameter p for the annulus Q = {1< | s| <p} in terms of the ring R of bounded analytic functions nn this annulus. Beck's solution involves properties of univalent functions, and although the subset of univalent functions in ...

remains to be done in order that perfect certainty may be attained, nevertheless the outcome must be regarded as promising in pointing toward an adequate and convenient method of separating gallium from other metals. Three fractional samples of the chloride discussed in the previous section were analyzed, using the usual methods employed in Harvard University in order to make a preliminary dete...
