Please note and take this VERY SERIOUS -speed of 88 MPH is ILLEGAL on the MOST of the public roads. Double check this before your experiments and always keep the safety. This feature will not work well on iPods and not-3G iPads - the real hardware GPS chip is required. ...
The Norwegian climate with its cold winters can be challenging when it comes to concrete construction. It has been seen that the tensile strength for high-volume fly ash concretes can be very slow at low/moderate temperatures, and it was suspected that this effect could override the beneficial ...
3.4. Urban Climate The differences between rural and urban areas at medium scale are one of the main research topics for urban climate analysis. The urban heat island is the most well-known effect in this context. It describes the phenomenon of higher air and surface temperature in urban ...
A full-stack, open platform, NVIDIA Earth-2 accelerates climate and weather predictions with interactive, high-resolution simulation. Running on NVIDIA DGX™ GH200 , HGX™ H100, and OVX™ supercomputers, it can simulate and visualize the global atmosphere at unprecedented speed and scale. ...
Lay the foundations for your city to begin. Create the roads, infrastructure, and systems that make life possible day to day. It's up to you – all of it. How your city grows is your call too, but plan strategically. Every decision has an impact. Can you energize local industries whil...

Provide the world with the transport infrastructure it needs and make a fortune with custom-made transport services. Watch your trains run on rails, your buses and trucks thunder along roads, your ships power through the water, and your planes soar through the skies. Carry people on their way...
(stars coming from nearby homes and businesses) indicating that yes, things are connected. No more wondering “did I do that right?” Another great feature: you can replace roads in place without bulldozing; cities can start with smaller roads and upgrade to higher capacity down the line, ...
