The Effect of Road Hump in Reducing Speed of Motorcars in a Residential Area in Kuala Lumpur [PDF]
In its most simple terms, traffic calming is about preserving the functions of local streets. As local streets are intended to provide primarily land-access services, hence, when traffic begins to use local streets for through movements, traffic volume ...

Magnetohydrodynamic shocks in and above post-flare loops: two-dimensional simulation and a simplified model [PDF]
Solar flares are an explosive phenomenon, where super-sonic flows and shocks are expected in and above the post-flare loops. To understand the dynamics of post-flare loops, a two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (2D MHD) simulation of a solar flare has ...
