The "factory-in-a-box" concept involves assembling production modules (i.e., factories) in containers and transporting the containers to different customer locations. Such a concept could be highly effective during emergencies, when...
New theoretical lower bounds for the number of operators needed in fixed-point constant multiplication blocks are presented. The multipliers are constructed with the shift-and-add approach, where every arithmetic operation is pipelined, ...
Calibration and Evaluation of Link Congestion Functions: Applying Intrinsic Sensitivity of Link Speed as a Practical Consideration to Heterogeneous Facility Types within Urban Network
This paper explores the use of archived data to calibrate volume delay functions (VDFs) and updates their input parameters (capacity and free-flow speed) for planning applications. The sensitivity analysis of speed to change in...

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) and microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) are promising bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) for simultaneous wastewater treatment and energy/resource recovery. Unlike conventional fuel cells that are based on...
As municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills can generate significant amounts of methane, there is considerable interest in quantifying fugitive methane emissions at such facilities. A variety of methods exist for the estimation of methane...
The study applied the Markov chain (MC) model that uses a transition matrix to transmit the probability of monitored pavement markings being in one service life state then changing into another service life state over a time interval....
Since ancient times, maritime transportation has played a very important role for the global trade and economy of many countries. The volumes of all major types of cargo, which are transported by vessels, has substantially increased in...
This paper examines the effect of structural steel strain rate dependency on the outcome of the FDOT/ECE-R66 bus rollover test. Bending and impact tests were performed on structural tubing in order to evaluate strain rate dependency...
Although pedestrian countdown signals (PCSs) are meant for pedestrians, they give cues to drivers on the remaining amount of green as the timer counts down. This study focuses on the evaluation of safety effectiveness of PCSs to drivers...
The comprehension of network-level consequences resulting from disruptive events is a main gray area in the evaluation of transportation network resilience at the regional level. Explaining hazard impacts on regional network...
