SVR approach for predicting vehicle velocity for comfortable ride while crossing speed humps
Alexandria Engineering Journal, 2022 This research focuses on the ride comfort of passengers in vehicles equipped with passive suspension systems. To ensure ride comfort, the paper proposes predicting the vehicle's appropriate velocity that drivers should sustain before approaching speed ...

TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series C, 1992 In the previous paper, a hump with elasticity was proposed, and numerical analysis was carried out on the hump in order to determine the influence of the elasticity on speed control for vehicles. In this paper, circular humps with elasticity are designed using a method of multiobjective optimum design in order to minimize the maximum value of the ...

A Dual‐Functional Electrolyte Additive for Highly Reversible Zinc‐Ion Batteries
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as a dual‐function additive for aqueous zinc‐ion batteries. TBAB disrupts the hydrogen‐bond network of water while TBA+ adsorbs on Zn to improve interfacial wettability and regulate Zn2+ flux, resulting in suppressed dendrite growth and parasitic reactions. This synergy extended the lifespan of Zn|

Submicron Metasurface Reconfigured Multiband Smart Windows
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work presents a submicron metasurface reconfigured multiband thermochromic smart window. By integrating subwavelength nanostructures into a Fabry−Perot resonator configuration, it mitigates conventional trade‐offs to simultaneously deliver high luminous transmittance and robust solar heating and radiative cooling modulation capabilities ...

Evidence for Itinerant Ferromagnetic Flat Bands Producing Large Transverse Responses
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Itinerant ferromagnetic flat bands are demonstrated in GdCo5 with a high Curie temperature of 940K, a stacked honeycomb–kagome lattice, through angle‐resolved photoemission spectroscopy and magneto‐thermoelectric measurements. These topological flat bands generate large Berry curvaturte, producing gigantic anomalous Nernst effect with record‐high ...

The Effect of Speed Humps on Highways Pavement Condition [PDF]
International Journal of Engineering, 2020 Speed humps used as a tool of traffic calming technique that applied to force drivers to reduce their vehicle’ speeds at some locations. For developed countries, the implementations of speed humps are often used within residential areas as well as at locations of schools crossing. For developing countries (e.g.
