Finding the crosswalks on DNA [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2002 Any busy street is organized into clearly defined places where one can cross safely from one side to the other and places where crossing is discouraged. On many a busy meiotic chromosome, there appear to be similar sorts of “crosswalks” where crossing over occurs frequently (Fig. 1).

Effects of Crosswalk Location and Pedestrian Volume on Entry Capacity of Roundabouts
International Journal of Transportation Science and Technology, 2013 At roundabout approaches, vehicles must yield to pedestrians who are using crosswalks. The presence of pedestrians using the crosswalk at a roundabout approach thus decreases the entry capacity of the approach. This research used a calibrated microscopic

Journal for Language Technology and Computational Linguistics, 2015 The present paper explores various arguments in favour of making the Text Encoding Initia-tive (TEI) guidelines an appropriate serialisation for ISO standard 24613:2008 (LMF, Lexi-cal Mark-up Framework) . It also identifies the issues that would have to be resolved in order to reach an appropriate implementation of these ideas, in particular in terms ...

Journal of Advanced Transportation, 2020 Pedestrians do not always comply with the crossing rules of when and/or where to cross the road at signalized intersections. This risky behavior tends to undermine greatly the effectiveness of safety countermeasures at such locations.

Differential Equations Modeling Crowd Interactions [PDF]
, 2014 Nonlocal conservation laws are used to describe various realistic instances of crowd behaviors. First, a basic analytic framework is established through an "ad hoc" well posedness theorem for systems of nonlocal conservation laws in several space ...
