The method of intelligent wireless sensor to improve the water permeability of permeable asphalt concrete pavement

IET Networks, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract This research aims to study the intelligent wireless sensor to improve the water permeability of permeable asphalt concrete pavement. The water permeability of pavement is extremely important for the traffic environment. This study first briefly introduces the background and significance analysis, and then exemplifies the deployment algorithm ...

Operating Capacity, Pricing and Supply Elasticity in Container Shipping Markets

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate the channels through which changes in operating capacity influence freight rates in the container shipping market using a novel dataset to create an operating capacity index at the shipping‐route level. Our analysis reveals that when supply elasticity is low, an increase in operating capacity tends to drive freight rates upward,

Distributed wireless network resource optimisation method based on mobile edge computing

IET Networks, EarlyView., 2022
This paper mainly compares the network ranking leader, consumption amount and network signal reception of the three algorithms. The study found that in terms of network sort captain, there are significant differences between the CPLEX algorithm, the CCST algorithm, and edge computing methods. The CCST algorithm and edge computing have little difference

Association between residential exposure to road traffic noise and cognitive and motor function outcomes in children and preadolescents

Environment International
Background: Exposure to environmental noise is increasing in recent years but most of the previous literature in children has evaluated the effect of aircraft noise exposure at schools on cognition.

Meteorological effects on the noise shielding by low parallel wall structures [PDF]

, 2016
Numerical calculations, scale model experiments and real-life implementations have shown that the insertion of a closely spaced array of low parallel walls beside a road is potentially a valuable road traffic noise abatement technique.

Two Problems for the Political Inclusion of Animals

Journal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, the field of animal ethics has taken a political turn, with scholars arguing that sentient nonhuman animals should be included in the political sphere. This article explores two key challenges arising from this turn towards the political inclusion of animals: the Conflict Problem and the Numbers Problem.

Traffic noise in LCA: Part 1: state-of-science and requirement profile for consistent context-sensitive integration of traffic noise in LCA [PDF]

, 2018
Background, aim, and scope: According to some recent studies, noise from road transport is estimated to cause human health effects of the same order of magnitude as the sum of all other emissions from the transport life cycle.
