In this section, we first introduce a selection of factors that are relevant to pedestrian behavior analysis; then we describe how such factors could be calculated from social media data. 2.1. Characterization factors Following the above discussion, criteria for selecting factors are: As mentioned ...
Several sources of information are considered in the evaluation process, thus, results are more realistic and accurate and can be used for optimal decision-making related to maintenance and retrofitting actions. The feasibility of the methodology has been tested on O Barqueiro Bridge, an aging ...
One of the main issues to be solved will be how to incorporate the mesh of commercial pedestrian streets on acoustic simulations. In this study a pilot study was carried out at "Calcadao de Osasco", a pedestrian street in the metropolitan area of Sao Paulo, with a high crowd density, ...
Given the 516 Arouca pedestrian suspension bridge's design and characteristics, the owner, a municipality, required a set of tests in order to evaluate its aerodynamic characteristics and dynamic response, aiming at both structural safety and user comfort. Wind tunnel tests were performed o...
The noise in busy streets presents larger pulse durations, larger amplitude, and shorter elapsedtime between pulses that the noise measured in a pedestrian area. Several statistical tests have been done to find the distribution function that best fits these random variables. Power Rayleigh, lognormal...
In view of the pedestrian space violation in an advance right-turn lane, the pedestrian crossing paths are divided by collecting the temporal and spatial information of pedestrians and motor vehicles, and the characteristics of different pedestrian crossing behaviors are studied. Combined with the time...
Given the 516 Arouca pedestrian suspension bridge’s design and characteristics, the owner, a municipality, required a set of tests in order to evaluate its aerodynamic characteristics and dynamic response, aiming at both structural safety and user comfort. Wind tunnel tests were performed over a se...
Figure 1. (a) structure of the L3 PC nanocavity, constituting a candidate for a typical semiconductor laser. Overall size of the device is around 100 microns in length and 200 nm in thickness. The 54 air holes in the center box will be converted into a 2-D pixel array as the input ...
This paper deals with the characterization and evolution of dune systems along the Mediterranean coast of Andalusia, in the South of Spain, a first step to assess their relevant value in coastal flood protection and in the determination of sound management strategies to protect such valuable ecologic...
