We consider optimally coordinated freeway traffic control for networks containing bottlenecks with capacity drop and hysteresis behavior. Due to the multitude of traffic jams, and the spatial and temporal relationships between control actions and traffic behavior, this problem is not as straightforward as for local control. The order in which the measures are applied may be relevant, or it may ...

Resumo A existência de vários lugares para o educativo está sendo reconhecida na sociedade contemporânea. As game jams (GJ), contextos criação videojogos, vêm estudadas como onde pode ser emergente. Este artigo apresenta uma revisão da literatura, que integra estudos acerca das relações entre e educação. Poucos têm sido realizados, mobilizando métodos qualitativos explorando as percepções persp...

Historically in Puget Lowland rivers, wood jams were integral to maintaining an anastomosing channel pattern and a dynamic channel–floodplain connection; they also created deep pools. In the late 1800s, wood was removed from most rivers, rivers were isolated from their floodplains, and riparian forests were cut down, limiting wood recruitment. An exception to this history is an 11-km-long reach...

Jams, initially coined in the domain of Jazz music, are nowadays applied by various institutions as practice of innovation communities. Jams help to gather and strengthen the community and allow for seamless knowledge transfer to develop innovative concepts. Yet, the body of academic literature on jams is rudimentarily established and lacks a comprehensive understanding for this specific innova...

There are some studies on the educational potential of game jams, but their number seems insufficient given hundreds thousands jam participants every year. What emerges as largest research gap is industry perspective: its involvement in jamming and motivations for doing so. This study a reaction to this gap. Current defined benefits how these relevant radically underresearched. Clarifying missi...

The purpose of the present work was to develop an innovative food product with nutritional properties as well as appealing organoleptic qualities. The product, a jam, was prepared with the beans’ cooking water combined with fresh apple or carrot, without the addition of any conservatives. Three different jams were produced: bean and carrot, bean and apple and bean, apple and cinnamon. The devel...

Self-organizing traffic jams are known to occur in medium-to-high density traffic flows and it is suspected that ACC algorithms may affect their onset in mixed human-ACC traffic flows. Unfortunately, closed-form solutions that predict the statistical occurrence of these jams in mixed traffic do not exist. In this paper, a closed form solution that explains the impact of adaptive cruise control ...
