Modeling pedestrian activity in cities with urban network analysis by Sevtsuk, Andres, Kalvo, Raul

“…The global climate-change crisis, along with public health and economic competitiveness challenges in cities around the world have underscored the need for analytic tools to examine the relationship between city design and sustainable mobility. Car-centered travel demand models and land-use-transportation interaction models have historically analyzed zone-to-zone trips along major roadways, largely omitting pedestrian and bicycle trips and creating a gap in the ability for planners and urban designers to systematically assess non-motorized outcomes of development interventions. …”

On the local and string stability analysis of traffic collision risk by Dong, Tianyu, Zhou, Jiazu, Zhuo, Junfan, Li, Bo, Zhu, Feng

“…These theoretical insights are substantiated through microscopic simulations using a variety of car-following models. The simulations also indicate that the consistency between theoretical and simulation outcomes diminishes as the disturbance magnitude increases, which is attributed to the linearization errors inherent in applying the transfer function in the theoretical derivations.…”

Monitoring the drying process of glutinous rice using hyperspectral imaging coupled with multivariate analysis by Jimoh, Kabiru Ayobami, Hashim, Norhashila, Shamsudin, Rosnah, Che Man, Hasfalina, Jahari, Mahirah

“…Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is an optical technology that harnesses the combination of imaging and spectroscopy techniques for quantifying and qualifying the physical, chemical, and biological properties of materials. The visible-near infrared (Vis-NIR) HSI system with a spectral range of 450–1000 nm was employed in this study to monitor the moisture content of glutinous rice during hot-air drying. …”
