Urban Transit Technology Selection for Many-to-Many Travel Demand Using Social Welfare Optimization Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The introduction of mass transit technologies is increasingly viewed as a feasible solution to mitigate urban traffic congestion in fast growing Indian cities. The type of transit technology selection for a particular city ...
Alternative Approach for Estimation of Precipitation Using Doppler Weather Radar Data
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Precipitation estimates from Doppler weather radar (DWR) provide much better spatial resolution as compared to rain gauges and are therefore becoming more popular in hydrological applications. However, traditional estimates ...
Effect of Rounded Corners on Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow Through Triangular Duct
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Turbulent flow heat transfer and friction penalty in triangular cross-sectional duct is studied in the present paper. The sharp corners of the duct are modified by converting it into circular shape. Five different models ...
