Purpose: We aim at "heavy traffic direction" and "light traffic direction" in two-way waterway traffic and attempt to promote the transit capacity of two-way waterway system. Design/methodology/approach: We propose overtaking rules, head-on rules and a cellular automaton model for variable...

Inspired by the question of identifying the start time τ of financial bubbles, we address the calibration of time series in which the inception of the latest regime of interest is unknown. By taking into account the tendency of a given model to overfit data, we introduce the Lagrange...

This paper explores the design parameters of high-voltage coils of three-phase transformers and the effects of eddy current losses caused by energy conversion. The commercial software, ANSYS-Maxwell, was employed to conduct the simulation of electrical and magnetic fields. The design parameters...

During the past few years, the plant nursery sector has drastically minimized its carbon footprint by using geothermal systems for heating rather than fossil fuel. This study aims to define the temperature range inside a greenhouse by means of a multiparametric analysis, with regard to several...
