A field study of mental workload: conventional bus drivers versus bus rapid transit drivers
Ergonomics, 2021 Road traffic accidents are increasing worldwide and cause a high number of fatalities and injuries. Mental Work Load (MWL) is a contributing factor in road safety. The primary aim of this work was to study important MWL factors and then compare conventional and BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) drivers' MWL.

Impedance‐Matched High‐Overtone Thickness‐Shear Bulk Acoustic Resonators With Scalable Mode Volume
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A bottom‐electrode‐free high‐overtone bulk acoustic resonator is achieved by lateral excitation of antisymmetric thickness‐shear modes on a lithium‐niobate‐on‐silicon platform. Planar electrode geometry eliminates conventional loading along the resonance path and confines acoustic energy within the electrode gap.

A Hybrid Metaheuristic for the Bus Driver Rostering Problem [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Operations Research and Enterprise Systems, 2013 This paper presents a new decomposition model for the Bus Driver Rostering Problem and proposes the hybridization of column generation and genetic algorithms to achieve good quality rosters in short time. The decomposition model is based on the definition of a subproblem for each driver, which is responsible for the creation of valid work-schedules for

Blink Duration as an Indicator of Driver Sleepiness in Professional Bus Drivers [PDF]
Sleep, 1999 This study focused on eyeblink duration as a measure of sleepiness in on-road driving and on the driving performance of professional bus drivers with polysomnographically confirmed mild obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS). Ten bus drivers with OSAS and their matched controls participated in the study. The Maintenance of Wakefulness Test (MWT) and a

Synthesis of functionalized polyolefins in a new continuous bench‐scale reactor apparatus
AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract In‐reactor functionalized polyolefins (FPOs), produced by molecular catalysts, are a new class of polymer materials with applications ranging from high performance adhesives to bitumen compatibilization. In this work, we disclose a procedure for the synthesis of FPOs in a new Continuous Bench‐scale Reactor Apparatus (COBRA).

Parametric Analysis of Spiking Neurons in 16 nm Fin Field‐Effect Transistor Technology
Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.Energy efficient computing has driven a shift toward brain‐inspired neuromorphic hardware. This study explores the design of three distinct silicon neuron topologies implemented in 16 nm fin field‐Effect transistor technology. While the Axon‐Hillock design achieves gigahertz throughput, its functional fragility persists. The Morris–Lecar model captures

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.It is a fact that slippage causes tracking errors in both longitudinal and lateral directions which results to have less travel distance in tracking a reference trajectory. Less travel distance means having energy loss of the battery and carrying loads less than planned.
