Speed-of-light pulses in the massless nonlinear Dirac equation with a potential [PDF]
, 2017 We consider the massless nonlinear Dirac (NLD) equation in $1+1$ dimension with scalar-scalar self-interaction $\frac{g^2}{2} (\bar{\Psi} \Psi)^2$ in the presence of three external electromagnetic potentials $V(x)$, a potential barrier, a constant ...

International Journal of Students' Research in Technology & Management, 2016 This technical paper relates to a device that reduces the speed of any overspeeding vehicles travelling on a roadway.It is formed by at least one hollow strip of flexible material, made up of several receptacles located in the shell body. Each receptacle is impregnated with a dilatant shear-thickening fluid.

Analysis and Evaluation of Trapezoidal Speed Humps and Their Impact on the Driver
The Baltic Journal of Road and Bridge Engineering, 2018 Operating speed is one of the leading safety risk factors, which increases accident risk and influences accident severity. Speeding is the leading cause of accidents and the most common road traffic offense.

Traffic flow parameters development modelling at traffic calming measures located on arterial roads
Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2021 Controlling the speed of vehicles is essential in some parts of the roadway. One way of controlling speed is to use static control devices i.e. traffic calming measures, which reduce the speeds of vehicles and thereby increase safety, while produce ...

Traffic Calming in Québec: Speed Humps and Speed Cushions
Journal of Civil Engineering and Architecture, 2013 Speed management is an essential tool in ensuring the improved safety of users of urban roads, particularly vulnerable users. It relies on several measures: awareness campaigns, speed control, as well as the development and operation of the road infrastructure.

Characterising bars in low surface brightness galaxies
, 2018 In this paper, we use $\textit{B}$-band, $\textit{I}$-band, and 3.6 $\mu$m azimuthal light profiles of four low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies (UGC 628, F568-1, F568-3, F563-V2) to characterise three bar parameters: length, strength, and corotation ...

Public Evaluation of Speed Humps Performance and Effectiveness [PDF]
Civil Engineering Journal, 2018 In Egypt, it is believed that speed humps are the cheapest and best solutions to reduce vehicles speed and thus reduce the number of potential accidents. Due to the lack of specifications in Egypt that govern the installation of speed humps, they were spread randomly and with different dimensions without adequate studies.
