Analysis of Speed Hump Effect on Signalized Intersection Performance
Port-Said Engineering Research Journal, 2020 Intersections have primary importance in urban networks because most of travel time is wasted at the intersection specially signalized category. Popular solutions of intersection control need to use artificial objects such as speed hump or signals. If both solutions were used together, it causes a manifestation of the delay problem.

Applied Sciences, 2020 Traffic calming measures (TCM) are placed in urban areas to improve road safety, and among them, vertical TCMs are widely employed. Many researches are focused on the influence of the geometry of each measure on speed reduction, but it is demonstrated ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Laser material processing is a promising technique for fabricating metal structures. Here, external electric field (EFs) assisted laser processing of metallic powders are investigated. EFs affect the melt tracks through changes in their stability and influence the grain structure in conjunction with laser intensity distribution methods. The EF‐assisted

Transforming Grain‐Boundary Brittle Precipitates to Ductility Pathways in Complex Concentrated Alloy
Advanced Science, EarlyView.By engineering graded BCC/L12 interfaces, brittle precipitates in a complex concentrated alloy enable sequential deformation, realizing gigapascal strength with >20% elongation to solve the strength‐ductility trade‐off. ABSTRACT Conventional wisdom holds that hard grain‐boundary (GB) precipitates embrittle structural alloys by acting as crack ...

Built environment characteristics and driving speed in 30 km/h zones: a Dutch national analysis
Traffic Safety ResearchRoad authorities are systematically expanding 30 km/h zones to enhance safety. This requires understanding how built environment characteristics are associated with driving speeds, but only a few studies, typically based on small samples, focus on 30 km/

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study combines full‐field tomography with diffraction mapping to quantify radial (ε002$\varepsilon _{002}$) and axial (ε100$\varepsilon _{100}$) lattice strain in wrinkled carbon‐fiber specimens for the first time. Radial microstrain gradients (−14.5 µεMPa$\varepsilon \mathrm{MPa}$−1) are found to signal damage‐prone zones ahead of failure, which ...

Design and evaluation of a novel curved speed hump (CSH) for Indian roads
Transportation Research Interdisciplinary PerspectivesTraffic calming measures are crucial for sustainable traffic management. Globally, vertical and horizontal techniques, such as speed humps, speed cushions, roundabouts and chicanes are used to reduce vehicle speeds and enhance road safety.

Traffic Calming Measures: An Evaluation of the Effect on Driving Speed
Promet (Zagreb), 2017 Road accidents are one of the leading causes of death in the world, particularly among young people. Excessive speed is one of the main risk factors in road traffic safety, increasing accident probability and affecting accident severity.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.We generated multi‐tissue single‐cell transcriptomic atlases of camels and cattle, uncovering conserved and lineage‐specific cellular features across digestive and metabolic systems. Cross‐species comparisons revealed the evolutionary origin of the camel glandular sac and identified novel cell populations linked to physiological specialization ...
