Повний текст джерелаMore and more travellers use navigation-aid software to find the way while driving. Most of todays systems use static maps with little or no information at all about currently yeilding roads conditions and disturbances in the network. It is desirable for such services
in the future to include information about road works, accidents, surface conditions and other types of events that affects what route is currently the best.
It is also desirable to notify users about changes in the prerequisites of the chosen route after they have started their trip.
This thesis investigates methods to include dynamic traffic information in route calculations and notifying users when the characteristics change for their chosen route.
The thesis utilizes dynamic traffic information from The Swedish Road Agencys (Vägverket) central database for traffic information, TRISS and calculates affected clients with help of positioning through the GSM network.

Повний текст джерелаThe aim of the doctoral thesis is to contribute on the developpement of real-time traffic control algorithms for mass transit railway systems with junctions, located in urban areas. The scientific ambition of the doctoral thesis is to develop a traffic model with a finer modelisation of the train-passengers interaction. The model will allow a more precise evaluation of the level of service offered to the passengers and of the decisions taken by the operator of the line. Basing on this modeling, we will develop a control algorithm (strategic/ tactical and operational) in order to enhance the service quality on the line. The objective of the Paris metro system operator, financing this thesis, is to have a ready-to-implement control system for a railway line with a junction

This study aimed to evaluate the role of education in traffic associated with kinematics and evaluate possible changes in behavior with respect to the direction of future drivers. Participated in our survey, students in the first year of high school, a private educational institution in the North West of the State of Rio Grande do Sul. In all activities was used traffic to assist in the understanding of some physical concepts in kinematics and the Newton´s laws, physics curriculum content for the first year. The survey was conducted using structured questionnaires along with application classes using the methodology of the three pedagogical moments methodology for providing discussion between students and teacher and for problem-solving. Besides the three questionnaires during classes, some observations were made in the development of activities. The traffic topic is very useful for the application of physics concepts, providing a major increase in the appropriation of knowledge by the students (meaningful learning), in relation to these concepts. We conclude that this work contributed to the construction of knowledge of the physics of the participants. A significant change in attitude toward transit was also observed by changing thoughts and even forming opinions not previously existed.
O presente trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar o papel da educação no trânsito associada a aula de cinemática e avaliar possíveis mudanças de comportamento com relação a direção de futuros motoristas. Participaram de nossa pesquisa, alunos do primeiro ano do Ensino Médio, de uma Instituição de Ensino Privado no Noroeste do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Em todas as atividades foi utilizado tema Trânsito para auxiliar na compreensão de alguns conceitos físicos presentes na Cinemática e nas Leis de Newton, conteúdos do currículo da Física para o primeiro ano. A pesquisa foi realizada utilizando questionários estruturados, juntamente com aulas de aplicação com o uso da metodologia dos três momentos pedagógicos, metodologia utilizada por proporcionar discussão entre os alunos e o professor e por ter caráter problematizador. Além dos três questionários aplicados no decorrer das aulas, foram feitas algumas observações no desenvolvimento das atividades. O tema Trânsito é muito útil para a aplicação de conceitos de Física, proporcionando um acréscimo na apropriação do conhecimento por parte dos alunos (aprendizagem significativa), em relação à esses conceitos. Concluímos que esse trabalho contribuiu para a construção do conhecimento da Física dos participantes. Também foi observada uma mudança significativa de atitude em relação ao trânsito, alterando pensamentos e até mesmo formando opiniões que anteriormente nem existiam.

Повний текст джерелаThe present work had to educational resources for the Teaching of Physics in the present research papers/teatching/extension education in the field of Science/ Physics/Teaching in the production of educational material with a view to developing awareness of students in relation to them traffic safety as well as enhance the teatching practice, developing a beginning teacher in the habit of reflection. Therefore we created a didactic proposal consists of seven units with a view to teaching content related to quantity of motion, momentum, work, energy and Newton s laws using teatching resources the development of various activities that comprise these units. All lessons were recorded in daily teatching practice, wich were subsequently analyzed with the activities undertaken by the students. We conducted a survey which conceptual content, didactic proposal, as well as skills (PCN+). Stands out the paper that planning has in teaching practice because, it is through this that you plan and anticipate the actions that will be developed in the classroom. In relative reflection of teaching practice of beginning teacher, it is believed that this was achieved. It is clear that most of the activities was possible to develop a set of conceptual content, procedural and attitudinal, and this should be thought of all classes, because then the teacher is able to leverage its role in forming citizens. In relation to student s learning, there is an evolution of their knowledge of physics so that it is clear that at the beginning only demonstrated familiarity with kinematics and after out of momentum, Newton s first law and force, who were content more closely related to traffic safety issue, and also Newton s third law and energy. Regarding the awareness of students about safety, it was hoped that the posters mode by them appear more physical content, but what stood out was the use of Newton, which is related to the use of seat belts. This can be explained by familiarity with this issue.
O presente trabalho teve como objetivo geral a utilização de recursos didáticos para o Ensino de Física presentes nos trabalhos de pesquisa/ensino/extensão da área de Educação em Ciências/Ensino de Física na produção de material didático com intuito de desenvolver a conscientização dos alunos em relação ao tema segurança no trânsito, assim como potencializar a prática docente, desenvolvendo numa professora iniciante o hábito da reflexão. Para tanto foi elaborada uma proposta didática composta por sete unidades com vistas ao ensino dos conteúdos relacionados à Quantidade de Movimento, Impulso, Trabalho, Energia e Leis de Newton utilizando recursos didáticos variados no desenvolvimento das atividades que compõem estas unidades. Todas as aulas foram registradas em diários da prática docente, os quais foram posteriormente analisados juntamente com as atividades desenvolvidas pelos alunos. Realizou-se um levantamento de quais conteúdos conceituais, procedimentais e atitudinais foram contemplados na proposta didática, assim como as competências (PCN+). Destaca-se o papel que o planejamento tem na prática docente, pois, é através deste que se planeja e antecipa as ações que serão desenvolvidas em sala de aula. Em relação à reflexão da prática docente da professora iniciante, acredita-se que isso foi alcançado. Fica claro que na maioria das atividades foi possível desenvolver um conjunto de conteúdos conceituais, procedimentais e atitudinais, e isso deve ser pensando em todas as aulas, pois, assim o docente consegue potencializar seu papel de formador de cidadãos. Em relação à aprendizagem dos alunos, constata-se que houve uma evolução dos seus conhecimentos da Física de modo que fica claro que no início demonstraram familiaridade somente com a cinemática e após destacam quantidade de movimento, 1ª lei de Newton e força, conteúdos que foram mais intensamente relacionados ao tema segurança no trânsito, e também 3ª lei de Newton e energia. A respeito da conscientização dos alunos sobre segurança no trânsito, esperava-se que nos cartazes confeccionados por eles aparecessem mais conteúdos Físicos, porém, o que mais se destacou foi a 1ª lei de Newton, que está relacionada ao uso de cinto de segurança. Isso pode ser explicado pela familiaridade com esta questão.

Повний текст джерелаMed ökande tekniska framsteg mer avancerade mobila enheter som används av slutanv ändarna. Tredje generationens (3G) mobila kommunikationssystem såsom Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) inte kan tillgodose den ökande efterfrågan på högre genomströmning och låga latenser. Nya standarder som bygger på Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), såsom Long Term Evolution (LTE) och Worldwide Interoperability för Microwave Access (WiMAX), har föreslagits och håller på att integreras I befintliga mobilnät över hela världen. LTE specifikationer håller på att färdigställas inom 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) med de ambitiösa målen om ökad spektral effektivitet och slutanvändare genomstr ömning. Trots införandet av flera tjänster av hög datahastighet, är röstkommunikation fortfarande en väsentlig del av den totala Wireless Wide Area cellulär kommunikation marknaden. I LTE är kärnnätet rent paketförmedlande därmed röst överförs helt och hållet med hjälp av en Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). Precis som sina föregångare standarder är det önskvärt att ett stort antal samtidiga VoIP samtal få stöd i LTE, samtidigt som det uppfyller önskade Quality of Service (QoS) krav. Denna avhandling undersöker frågor relaterade till VoIP kapacitet för LTE. En av de viktigaste utmaningarna är det begränsade antalet schemaläggningsbart röst paket per sub ram. Det huvudsakliga målet med denna avhandling är att kvantifiera effekterna av denna begränsning. Efter att ha beskrivit de grundläggande LTE begrepp, är en detaljerad beskrivning av de resurser kontroll kanal begränsningar för schemaläggning av röst paket presenteras. Konsekvenser av dessa begränsningar förklaras systematiskt genom att presentera problemet i ett större sammanhang. Simulering resultat erhölls med hjälp av openWNS Simulator, en händelse driven systemnivå simulering som utvecklats vid Communication Networks Research Group (ComNets), RWTH Aachen University Tyskland. Resultat presenteras som visar effekterna av olika schemaläggning strategier för VoIP kapacitet. Dessa resultat illustrerar hur de begränsade kontroll kanalresurser, särskilt fysiskt Downlink (PDCCH) resurser, påverkar det totala antalet schemaläggningsbart VoIP användare ljud mediaströmmar.

Повний текст джерелаL'exposició a la contaminació de l'aire relacionada amb el tràfic (CART) s'ha associate amb resultats adversos per a la salut. L'activitat física (AF) realitzada en ambients amb aire contaminat pot augmentar l'absorció de contaminants i amb això produir efectes en la salut. L'objectiu principal d'aquesta tesi va ser determinar els efectes en la salut de l’exposició a la CART a curt termini en participants sans així com qualsevol possible efecte modificador de l’AF. S’ha realitzat un estudi en disseny del creuament amb exposició del “món real” comparant en 28 participants sans les respostes pulmonars, sistèmics i de la pressió arterial en quatre escenaris diferents d'exposició: 2 hores d’exposició en un entorn d'alta i baixa CART, cadascun en repòs i en combinació amb AF moderada i intermitent, que consta de quatre intervals de 15 minuts de descans i ciclisme. Les dades es van analitzar utilitzant models d'efectes mixtes per a mesures repetides. Els nivells alts de CART van induïr una resposta inflamatòria sistèmica i de la via aèria, i un augment de la pressió arterial. L’AF va millorar la funció pulmonar i va atenuar l’augment de la pressió arterial. L’AF en alts nivells de CART també va induïr una inflamació pulmonar i sistèmica y una disminució dels nivells circulants del factor neurotròfic derivat del cervell (FNDC)1. L'exposició a curt termini a CART s'associa amb efectes adversos per a la salut. L’AF té efectes beneficiosos sobre la salut, encara quan es realitza en alts nivells de CART. El significat clínic de les disminucions en el FNDC com a resposta a l’AF intermitent en l'entorn experimental i l’AF més habitual de la vida quotidiana segueix essent poc clara. Aquest estudi també suggereix que els efectes sobre la salut de la CART i l’AF són predominantment independents dels nivells alts de CART. 1 també conegut com “BDNF”, de l'anglès “Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor”.

Повний текст джерелаMaster of Science
Since 1993, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requires that many commercial turbine-powered aircraft to be outfitted with an on-board mid-air collision mitigation system. This system is known as the Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) in the United States, and it is known as the Airborne Collision Avoidance System (ACAS) in other parts of the world. TCAS/ACAS is a type of safety-critical system, which means that implementations need to be highly tolerant to system failures because their operation directly affects the safety of the on-board passengers and crew. However, while safety-critical systems are tolerant to failures, the designers of these systems only account for failures that occur in a cooperative environment; these engineers fail to account for “bad actors” who want to attack the weaknesses of these systems, or they assume that attacking such a system is infeasible. Therefore, to demonstrate how safety-critical systems like TCAS/ACAS are vulnerable to such bad actors, this thesis presents a method for manipulating the TCAS/ACAS in the favor of a bad actor. To start, a method for qualitatively and quantitatively analyzing the system’s vulnerabilities is presented. Then, using Software Defined Radio (SDR), which is a free and open-source effort to combine the flexibility of software with the power of wireless communication, this thesis shows how an actor can craft wireless signals such that they appear to look like an aircraft on a collision course with a target.

Повний текст джерелаCytoskeletal transport modeling contributes to the understanding of complex biological phenomena that are associated to vital cell functions.In addition, this approach addresses new questions in fundamental physics related to the transport of a gas of particles, interacting by excluded volume, and out of equilibrium transport.The study is based on the Totally Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process (TASEP) model, treated in a mean field approach, and the results are compared to Monte Carlo simulations.Considering that the transport on the whole network can be regulated at junctions, we focus on simple patterns with one junction, and we investigate the regulation of transport due to the local kinetics and topology.We build up an analytical and numerical methodology of calculation motivated by experimentally observed structures.The analysis of kinetic and topological characteristics at the crossings of filaments, even in very distinct situations, can lead to the same generic models.Our work also provides insights into the effects of averaging on protofilaments at crossing microtubules, as it is inherent to current imaging experiments.The double approach, analytical and numerical, on generic models, opens many prospects.Notably, we have at our disposal the tools to investigate transport through a more realistic crossing of two typical microtubules with thirteen protofilaments each, and to deal with the particular kinetics of motor proteins on these filaments

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis explores the problems and possibilities concerning the interaction between players physically located in different cars during temporary meetings in a gaming situation. The thesis is part of a study set out to investigate how traffic encounters can be used as a resource in a mobile, multiplayer game intended as entertainment for children travelling in the backseat of cars. The multiplayer capabilities are realised by using wireless networks in ad hoc peer- to-peer mode, GPS positioning and a digital compass.
Designing the interaction for an ad hoc, mobile multiplayer experience introduces several design challenges, such as how to adapt to the temporality of traffic encounters and how to establish a connection between the digital game and the physical context. The nature of traffic encounters inspired us to take a newapproach to the interaction. The interaction is accomplished using a device, which enables direct interaction between players physically located in different cars. A prototype game was constructed within the frames of the project, which this thesis was part of, to test the functionality of the game concept. The prototype has been tested in its real setting, i.e. inside a car. The study and the work on this thesis was initialised and supervised by Liselott Brunnberg and the work was carried out at the Mobility Studio at the Interactive Institute in Stockholm during late spring and summer 2003.

Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS), or Airborne Collision Avoidance Systems ACAS), are safety-critical systems required by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in commercial aircraft. They work by sending queries to surrounding aircraft in the form of radio transmission. Aircraft in the who receive these transmissions send replies. Information in these replies allow the TCAS system to determine if a nearby aircraft may travel too close to itself. TCAS can then determine help both pilots avoid a mid-air collision. Information in the messages can be faked by a malicious actor. To explore these vulnerabilities a test bed is built with commercial grade TCAS equipment. Several types of attacks are evaluated.

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis was a contribution to the CORUS-POLCA (French acronym for " POLlution des Capitales Africaines ") program with the aim to characterize particulate pollution on traffic sites of two West-African capitals (Bamako, Mali and Dakar, Senegal) and to study aerosol biological impacts on lung inflammation. Urban particulate pollution with levels much higher than WHO norms, are in the focus due to intense African traffic sources and domestic fires. In this context, fundamental research of this thesis is centred on the following key scientific questions: - What is the chemical speciation of aerosols by size classes for black carbon, organic carbon, inorganic species, and trace elements for the two sites of POLCA program ? - What is the toxicity of these combustion aerosols and the oxidative stress levels ? - What is the link between aerosol size differentiated composition and inflammation markers for each source ? - What is the link between aerosol exposure and aerosol dose within the respiratory tract ? To tackle these questions, samples obtained during the intensive campaigns in Bamako (January 2009) and Dakar (December 2009) have been chemically analyzed to obtain differentiated aerosol chemical composition within size classes. All these measurements are conducted to a well physico-chemical characterization of particles in addition to source contributing determination using multivariate models (PCA, PMF). This study has been coupled to in vitro biological studies on sampled aerosols on the two sites. Such coupled studies allow to further understand the complex relationship between emissions source/aerosols chemistry/size distributions and biological health impacts. Finally, in this study, the DEPCLUNG (DEPosition, Clearance, LUNG) model was developed to evaluate chemically/size exposures to aerosol particle size distributions and calculate their respective concentrations/doses in the different compartments (trachea, bronchial, bronchiolar, alveolar) of the human respiratory tract. The conjunction of three themes, namely characterization of the urban particulate pollution in West Africa and its sources, its toxicological impact and dose modeling in the respiratory tract results in the multidisciplinary innovative character of the thesis

Повний текст джерелаSeveral cities have implemented various projects to improve traffic safety in city centers.During 1970s and 1980s the city centers changed as the suburbs grew and large shopping centers were located outside the center. At the same time, several projects were initiated with construction of pedestrian streets and restriction of traffic in the center. In year 1994,shared-used areas were introduced in Sweden and these areas are often used in center environments.
In Sweden, municipalities are responsible for integrating security in public places and in comprehensive plans and detailed development plans. The National Board of Housing,Building and Planning is the authority for administrating planning issues and develop general guidance about planning. Traffic is one of their key issues, although today there are no concrete guidelines from the National Board of Housing, Building and Planningfor the design of traffic safety in city centers.
Traffic safety in city centers affects many people because the city center is a public place.It is therefore important that there are current guidelines available that are helpful for changes and improvements in traffic safety in the city center.
The purpose of this report is to formulate guidelines for planning city centers from a traffic safety perspective. The aim is that the guidelines can be applied in the design of smaller city centers for improving traffic safety. For this report two case studies were implemented that included inventories and observations of Bollnäs and Sandviken city centers. The results showed that many of the streets did not function well and that there was a lack of design in the city centre center from a traffic safety perspective, for example pedestrian crossings and car parks.
Inventories and observations are good methods to see how the traffic environment in the city center varies in use and function. The observations and inventories resulted in guidelines with recommendations for the design of streets and traffic in small city centers.
Flera städer har genomfört olika projekt för att öka trafiksäkerheten i stadscentrumen.Under 1970-talet och 1980-talet förändrades stadscentrum i takt med att förorter växte fram och externa köpcentrum etablerades utanför centrum. Samtidigt påbörjades flera projekt med att anlägga gågator och begränsa biltrafiken i centrum. År 1994 infördes gårdsgator i Sverige och dessa används ofta i centrummiljöer.
I Sverige är det kommunerna som ansvarar för att säkerhet integreras planering av offentliga platser. Boverket är den myndighet som förvaltar frågor och tar fram allmänna råd angående planering. Trafik är en av deras viktigaste planeringsfrågor men idag finns inga konkreta råd från Boverket för utformning av trafiksäkra centrum.
Trafiksäkerhet i stadscentrum påverkar många människor eftersom att centrum är enoffentlig plats. Därför är det viktigt att det finns aktuella riktlinjer som är till hjälp vid förändringar och förbättringar i trafiksäkerheten i centrum.
Rapportens syfte var att utforma riktlinjer för planering av mindre stadscentrum ur ett trafiksäkerhetsperspektiv. För att kunna upprätta riktlinjer genomfördes två fallstudier.Dessa innefattade inventering och observation av Bollnäs och Sandvikens centrum.Bollnäs och Sandvikens centrum hade liknande funktioner av gatorna. Centrumens kärna fungerade till stor del som transportsträckor men även som promenadgator. Resultaten visade att många av gatornas tänka funktioner inte fungerade och att det fanns bristandeutformning av olika målpunkter, exempelvis övergångsställen och bilparkeringar.
Inventeringar och observationer är bra metoder för att se hur trafikmiljön i centrumfungerar eftersom användning och funktion av olika målpunkter varierar.Observationerna och inventeringen resulterade i riktlinjer med rekommendationer för utformning av gator och trafikmiljö i mindre stadscentrum.

En especial las políticas de transporte activo (caminar, viajar en bicicletas o en transporte público) pueden tener la capacidad de proveer beneficios para el medioambiente y la salud. Métodos Mediante el abordaje de la evaluación de impactos en salud se ha utilizado una modelo cuantitativo par estimar los impactos en salud de diferentes intervenciones o políticas de transporte activo, en áreas urbanas. Resultado Se cuantificaron los impactos de dos factores de riesgo, la contaminación del aire y los accidentes de tráfico. Se cuantifico además el efecto protector de la actividad física. En conjunto los beneficios de la actividad física superaron a los riesgos asociados con las políticas de transporte activo. Conclusiones Las políticas de transporte activo pueden producir grandes beneficios para la salud de la población. Estos beneficios están asociados principalmente con el incremento en los niveles de la actividad física.

Повний текст джерелаSimulation constitutes a major approach for the conception, development, analysis and evolution of urban systems. This thesis focusses on the modeling and simulation of movements (pedestrian, vehicle, cycle) within urban environments. The industrial context associated with this thesis requires to consider the movements of each entity in a three dimensional universe. In this thesis, we propose to address the scientific and technological challenges by using autonomous entities, called agents, to model the individuals. In agent-based simulation three elements must be defined: the agent behaviors, their interactions with other agents, and with the environment. The environment models the structure of the world and its endogenous dynamics. Unfortunately, it is still difficult to find an environment model that answers all the different scientific and technological problems addressed in this thesis. Consequently, an environment model named HEterogenous Dual Graph Environment (or HEDGE) is proposed. The HEDGE model is based on a decomposition of the environment using zones that are linked with navigation and perception links. This graph structure is at the center of our model. It is designed to “naturally” model the environment, and it allows an efficient simulation of the system composed of the environment and the agents. The environment’s missions and dynamic processes are modeled using mechanisms, which are inspired by the laws of Physics. The actions provided by the agents and the endogenous dynamics algorithms correspond to physical forces to apply to objects in the world. A model of conflict detection and resolution between those forces is used to ensure the coherence of the environment model state. In the last part of this thesis, the HEDGE model is used in the context of two urban planning projects in the city of Belfort, and its metropolitan area. The product of this model’s application is used in the context of technical studies (preliminary studies, pre-project), communication (consultation and public debates) and promotion (exposition, valorization) in the form of interactive 3D software

Повний текст джерелаNoise pollution is a major concern for residents of urban areas. To date, the European directive 2002/49/CE requires member states to represent community noise through noise maps. These are produced using the Lden (day-evening-night level) index which is also employed for dose-effect relationships in noise annoyance prediction. However, for the assessment of noise annoyance in urban areas, its relevance is often questioned. Numerous studies have shown that noise annoyance due to community noise is not solely based on the sound pressure level and other acoustical signal characteristics such as temporal and spectral features influence noise annoyance ratings. This thesis aims to improve the assessment of noise annoyance due to various road vehicle noises in cities. It is based on experiments carried out in laboratory conditions and comprises two main parts. The first addresses the enhancement of the physical and perceptual characterization of annoyance due to various urban road vehicle pass-by noises, such as buses, poweredtwo- wheelers, heavy vehicles and light vehicles. A specific focus is put on the characterization of annoyance due to powered-two-wheelers which are among the most annoying road vehicles and studied little in the existing literature. An indicator accounting for annoyance-relevant auditory attributes of urban road vehicle pass-by noises is determined: it comprises loudness, a spectral index and two modulation indices proposed in this work. In urban agglomerations, people are often exposed to road traffic in presence of a variety of other environmental noise sources. The focal point of the second part is on the prediction of total annoyance due to urban road traffic noise combined with tramway noise. In the aim of adequately characterizing total annoyance, first the perceptual phenomena involved in annoyance due to the combination of the sources are studied. Furthermore, the analysis allows for the testing of the proposed noise annoyance indicator for the characterization of urban road traffic noise. To characterize annoyance due to tramway noise, an indicator determined in a recent study is employed. Based on these indicators and the findings regarding perceptual phenomena, models for the prediction of total annoyance due to combined urban road traffic and tramway noise are proposed

Повний текст джерелаThe Soil compaction has been induced in the no-tillage (NT), mainly due to machinery traffic conditions in soils with high humidity. This traffic is essential for crop management, impossible to put out of the field. Alternatively to try to solve this problem the concept of controlled traffic system (CTF) of machines, which is the containment and permanent separation of local traffic machine of free traffic. In most incipient case of disciplined traffic system of the machines is an initial alternative to full deployment. In this sense an experiment was conducted during two crop years in a commercial area, managed under the NT using techniques of AP in the Não Me Toque city, RS state. The soil is Red Latossol with Cfa climate following Koppen classification. The treatments were: a) No Traffic (ST) b) traffic Spray (TP) c) Traffic Tractor (TT) and d) Maximum Traffic (TM). The assessments were: bunk density, macroporosity, microporosity, total porosity in the soil layers: 00-0.05; 0.05 0.10; 0,10 0.20 e 0.20 -0.30 m , water infiltration, penetrometer resistence (PR), root systems and yeld in the corn and soybean. In Céu Azul city, PR state, have another experiment was also conducted to study the traffic discipline within the commercial fields,but only soyebean field and with similar treatments to those used in RS. The results obtained in Paraná was observed that treatments with control traffic farming had 8% less yeld. Changes in soil physical properties not change significantly after the traffic. In the two case investigated it was found that the controlled traffic has feasibility in implementation and improvement in soil physical properties and increased yeld of corn and soybeans in southern Brazil.
A compactação do solo tem sido induzida no sistema de plantio direto (SPD), principalmente devido ao tráfego de máquinas em condições de solos com elevada umidade. Este tráfego dentro da lavoura é essencial para o manejo das culturas, impossível de ser extinto de dentro da lavoura. Como alternativa para tentar solucionar este problema surge o conceito do sistema de tráfego controlado de máquinas, que é o confinamento e a separação permanente dos locais de tráfego de máquinas dos locais livre de tráfego. Neste sentido foi conduzido um experimento com duração de dois anos em uma área comercial, manejada sob o SPD utilizando técnicas de AP no município de Não Me Toque, RS. O solo do local é um Latossolo Vermelho com clima subtropical do tipo Cfa úmido segundo a classificação de Koppen. A precipitação média oscila entre 1.500 a 1.700 mm e a temperatura média anual é de 18.7ºC. Os tratamentos investigados foram: a) Sem tráfego (ST); b) Tráfego do pulverizador (TP); c) Tráfego do trator (TT) e d) Tráfego máximo (TM). As principais avaliações foram: densidade do solo (Ds), macroporosidade (Ma), microporosidade (mi), porosidade total (pt), nas camadas 00-0,05; 0,05-0,10; 0,10-0,20 e 0,20-0,30 m, infiltração de água, resistência a penetração (RP), avaliação do sistema radicular e produtividade da culturas de milho e soja. Na cidade de Céu Azul, PR também foi realizado um experimento visando estudar o disciplinamento do tráfego dentro de uma lavoura comercial, com tratamentos similares aos utilizados no RS, porém com a cultura da soja. Os resultados obtidos no RS demonstraram que o tráfego de máquinas ocasionou o aumento da Ds e da RP, a redução da Ma e infiltração de água no solo, além de causar uma redução de até 24,0 e 42,0% na produtividade da cultura do milho e soja respectivamente. Foi obtida uma relação positiva (r2= 0,70) entre o aumento do número de passadas do trator e a RP. Os resultados obtidos no Paraná foram observados que os tratamentos com o tráfego de máquinas apresentaram 8% a menos na produtividade das culturas, embora as alterações nos atributos físicos do solo não sofreram alterações significativas após o tráfego. De acordo com os dois experimentos investigados, constatou-se que o sistema de tráfego controlado possui viabilidade na sua implementação e proporcionou melhoria nas condições físicas do solo e aumento na produtividade da cultura do milho e da soja no sul do Brasil.

The research in this paper focuses on the highway corridor Belgrade - Novi Sad, Serbia. The main issue is relationship between the highway and surrounding nature, as an integral part of the spatial entity which the highway belongs to. In order to achieve high level of the traffic safety, the paper emphasizes a high importance of studying the physical-geographical factors in the process of highway construction. Particular attention was directed to, not so visible, but very endangering factors of road safety - climate elements. It was found that the influence of climate elements is strong and it could be successfully controlled by vegetation. Data were taken from CARPATCLIM database and their evaluation was confirmed by obtained field data in CHEK-LISTS and by data evaluation in GIS. This was followed by a survey on the traffic safety of the highways in Serbia,from the driver's aspect of view. Results were processed in the SPSS. Finally, the research emphasized the most endangered sections of the traffic infrastructure corridor Belgrade - Novi Sad,affected by the climate elements. Landscape design of left and right side of the highway has been highlighted as a possibility of mitigating the influence of climate elements.

Повний текст джерелаThere is many jobs today in Sweden for crime prevention and these happen often through social efforts, but there is way too few of these for the physical environment that actually affects us more than we think they do. The purpose with this study is to make a systematical analysis of the physical environment in three deprives areas and examine if these environments can create crime opportunities. The chosen places are Bergsjön, Rinkeby and Vivalla with current problematic and high crime concentration (Polisen, 2017). Fact and theories such as the Routine Activity Theory, CPTED and Jane Jacobs’s urban ideas is treated in the study’s background. Similarities between the areas physical environment is compiled through map comparisons, place analysis and interviews. The methods result showed that the traffic separation created many dark tunnels into the areas, which caused unattractive and insecure entries. The buildings in the areas were also not varied and there could be a several of similar houses next to each other or over the whole field. It can be easier for a criminal to commit crimes in a simple surrounding without details, because it is fewer things to keep track of and it becomes much easier to commit the crime when people doesn’t look around themselves. Another similarity was the street structures, for example the three areas had blind alleys that didn't interweave the streets with each other. This contributed to segregated areas and difficulties for the police to arrive and perform their efforts effectively. Even the buildings placement to the street affected whether they had a natural surveillance that could prevent crime. This concluded that the physical environment in these three deprived areas can affect the emergence of crime.

Повний текст джерелаThe strong increase of the number of connected devices in recent years and the increasing use of communication technologies has a significant impact on the energy bill. To stop the increase in energy consumption, it is essential to be able to compare the digital communication algorithms in terms of consumption, in order to develop the most energy-efficient transmission architecture.In this thesis, the IEEE 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard of physical layer is analyzed at an energy point of view. The power dissipated in the circuits for operating the signal processing algorithms is taken into account in addition to the antenna transmission power. The implemented methodology includes both simulations and developments on a hardware platform (FPGAs), resulting in more realistic consumption assessments.First, we analyzed separately the components of the digital communications chains. Then we integrated the periods of activity and inactivity of each element in the calculation of the global energy consumption of the chains. We propose a practical and efficient method of estimating consumption, including a database derived from simulations, and a theoretical analysis of the activity rates of each element of the chain.These results make it possible to analyze the distribution of the power consumption of the elements composing transmitters and receivers, and to compare various architectures and sets of parameters. In particular, we evaluated the impact of two Fast Fourier Transform architectures on overall system consumption
