Recent years, advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) has been highly developed and widely used.Among various ADAS techniques adaptive cruise control (ACC) is the fundamental of longitudinal control.The tradeoffs among safety, comfort and traffic efficiency are the main issue in ACC design process.In this study, large amount of road tests was carr

The recent worldwide connectivity and the net-centricity of military operations (coalition-based operations) are witnessing an increasing need for the monitoring of plan execution for enhanced resource management and decision making.Monitoring of ongoing operations is the process of continuous observation recording and reporting.In this process the

Carbon nanotubes are a new class of microtubule-stabilizing agents since they interact with protein microtubules in living cells, interfering with cell division and Teaset inducing apoptosis.In the present work, a modified beam model is developed to investigate the effect of carbon nanotubes on the buckling of microtubule bundles in living cell.A r

We developed a new tracer-aided hydrological model that disaggregates cockpit karst terrain into the two dominant landscape units of hillslopes and depressions (with fast and slow flow systems).The new model was calibrated by using high temporal resolution hydrometric and isotope data in the outflow of Chenqi catchment in Guizhou Province of south-
