A free-floating bike repositioning problem with faulty bikes

Procedia Computer Science, 2019
Abstract The Free-Floating Bike-sharing System (FFBS) assists the commuters to pick up and drop off a rented bike without going to a docking station before and after the ride. However, the convenience of FFBS can also be a problem for users because the randomly scattered and faulty bikes can bring about bike unavailability and maintenance ...

Temperature Correction in a Single Luminophore Pressure‐Sensitive Paint Using a Dual‐Emitting Gold Acridine Complex

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
The use of pressure‐sensitive luminescent molecules to quantify surface pressure in wind tunnel testing has revolutionized experimental aerodynamics. This work develops a dual‐emitting gold acridine complex for the simultaneous sensing of pressure and temperature independently of each other.

Nonlocomotory Robotic Strategies for Dynamic Rotation Control in Terrestrial Robots: A Review

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Terrestrial robots increasingly require rapid body rotation to maintain stability and agility in complex environments. This review shows nonlocomotory rotational control strategies that operate without ground contact, including reaction wheels, tails, bars, limbs, and thrusters.

A Perspective on the Applications of Triphasic Gas Storage in Electrochemical Systems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gas storage in microporous materials positioned locally at an electrode or electrocatalyst surface enhances electrochemical processes. Abstract Microporous materials store gases under dry conditions (e.g., hydrogen or oxygen via physisorption), but in some cases microporous materials also show triphasic (e.g., in a solid|gas|liquid system) gas storage ...

The Bike Sharing Problem

, 2021
Assume that $m \geq 1$ autonomous mobile agents and $0 \leq b \leq m$ single-agent transportation devices (called {\em bikes}) are initially placed at the left endpoint $0$ of the unit interval $[0,1]$. The agents are identical in capability and can move at speed one.

On the path to develop a micromobility journey planner for Madrid: A tool to estimate, visualize, and analyze cycling and other shared mobility services’ flow

Journal of Transport and Land Use
Journey planners could be one of the most relevant aspects to consider when choosing and deciding our daily trips. However, many of these trip apps still do not consider the new forms of mobility that are emerging in cities, also known as micromobility ...

An On‐Demand Neuromorphic Vision System Enabled by a Multi‐Paradigm Neuromorphic Device and Hierarchical Reconfigurability Designed from Device to System Level

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An on‐demand ultra‐reconfigurable intelligent vision system with hierarchical reconfigurability from device to system levels is demonstrated. Through co‐design of a multi‐paradigm device, reconfigurable circuits, and adaptive system architecture/algorithms, the system enables seamless switching among spiking, non‐spiking, neuromorphic imaging (NI), and

Distracted Biking [PDF]

Journal of Trauma Nursing, 2016
Commuting via bicycle is a very popular mode of transportation in the Northeastern United States. Boston, MA, has seen a rapid increase in bicycle ridership over the past decade, which has raised concerns and awareness about bicycle safety. An emerging topic in this field is distracted bicycle riding.
