Capacity Reliability of Signalized Intersections with Mixed Traffic Conditions

The reliability of capacity of signalized intersections in mixed traffic conditions involving vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians was investigated to complete the conventional, deterministic capacity calculations. Simulations using VISSIM provided estimates of capacity distributions, and demonstrated the effects of the analysis intervals on the distributions. With the random vehicle arrivals taken into account, a capacity reliability assessment method was given as a function. Assessments were also performed...     

A Study of Melt Flow Analysis of an ABS-Iron Composite in Fused Deposition Modelling Process

Fused deposition modelling (FDM) is a filament based rapid prototyping system which offers the possibility of introducing new composite material for the FDM process as long as the new material can be made in feedstock filament form. Swinburne has been undertaking extensive research in development of new composite materials involving acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) and other materials including metals. In order to predict the behaviour of new ABS based composite materials in the course of FDM process, it is necessary to investigate the flow of the composite material in liquefier head. No such study is available considering the geometry of the liquefier head. This paper presents 2-D and 3-D numerical analysis of melt flow behaviour of a representative ABS-iron composite through the 90-degree bent tube of the liquefier head of the fused deposition modelling process using ANSYS FLOTRAN and CFX finite element packages. Main flow parameters including temperature, velocity, and pressure drop have been investigated. Filaments of the filled ABS have been fabricated and characterized to verify the possibility of prototyping using the new material on the current FDM machine. Results provide promising information in developing the melt flow modelling of metal-plastic composites and in optimising the FDM parameters for better part quality with such composites.     

A NAM Representation Method for Data Compression of Binary Images

A representation method using the non-symmetry and anti-packing model (NAM) for data compression of binary images is presented.The NAM representation algorithm is compared with the popular linear quadtree and run length encoding algorithms.Theoretical and experimental results show that the algorithm has a higher compression ratio for both lossy and lossless cases of binary images and better reconstructed quality for the lossy case.     

Estimating the Willingness-to-Pay for Urban Housing in Chinese Cities

The housing market, an important component of the urban economy, is closely integrated with urban development. Urban development attracts labor inflows which then increase the housing demand in the cities. Urban dwellers’ willingness-to-pay (WTP) for housing, as part of their living costs, depends on their incomes they can earn in the cities and the quality of life (QOL) they want to enjoy. Urban wage growth and quality of life improvements are always accompanied by increased demand and increased WTP. This ...     

Applying File Information to Block-Level Content Addressable Storage

Content addressable storage (CAS) is a promising technology for improving storage efficiency as well as access throughput.Currently,many CAS products are implemented on the block level,which results in loss of file information.Thus,some sophisticated optimizations cannot be achieved,such as accurate fileprefetching.This paper presents a file-aware block-level storage system combined with the CAS function.In contrast with some existing file-level CAS,this system is transparent to upper-level applications,including the operating system and the file system.These features are achieved by using smart-disk technologies to help the storage system to learn the file-system layout.A prototype was implemented on an open-source virtual machine (VM) with the guest operating system being Windows XP.Tests show that this combination significantly reduces the size of the VM image file and improves the storage performance by discarding unused blocks and using a simple file-level prefetching strategy.     

Simplified Design for Concurrent Statistical Zero-Knowledge Arguments

This paper shows that the protocol presented by Goyal et al.can be further simplified for a one-way function,with the simplified protocol being more practical for the decisional Diffie-Hellman assumption.Goyal et al.provided a general transformation from any honest verifier statistical zero-knowledge argument to a concurrent statistical zero-knowledge argument.Their transformation relies only on the existence of one-way functions.For the simplified transformation,the witness indistinguishable proof of kn...     

Effective Factors on Forming Precision in Patternless Casting Manufacturing Technique

The patternless casting manufacturing (PCM) technique, which adopts a new concept of double scanning method, combines the principle of discreteness and deposition with resin-bonded sand technique. This paper is to evaluate the dimensional accuracy of sand mould on PCM. The two important factors-the liquid penetration rule in the space of particles and the shape and dimension of the agglomeration unit body, which influence the process parameters such as scanning speed, layer thickness, liquid flux on dimension accuracy, and surface qualities, were investigated systematically, thus the theoretical basis for these parameters was provided. Experiments on rapid manufacturing of sand mould were carried out, and the results of the free penetration and the constraint penetration well verified the relationship of the two factors and the process parameters.     

New Voronoi Diagram Algorithm of Multiply-Connected Planar Areas in the Selective Laser Melting

This paper studies the practical generation of Voronoi diagrams for multiply-connected planar areas bounded by line segments. The core of the algorithm was calculating Voronoi polygon of every Voronoi object in planar areas independently. The main approach had two steps. The first step was calculating all relevant bisectors of every Voronoi object. The second was combining obtained bisectors into completed Voronoi polygons individually. All code was implemented in Visual C++ platform. The resulting code was extensively tested in real-world data and its practical running time grew only linearly. Three statistical CPU-consumption charts had been drawn with the Voronoi diagrams computation data, and compared with other published codes for computing Voronoi diagrams. The algorithm was applied to compute offsetting of slice area consisting of large-scale line segments for the selective laser melting (SLM) trajectory scanning technology which is a kind of rapid prototyping (RP). The experimental results of offsetting for slice area based on Voronoi diagrams show that the approach is effective and simple for polygon offsetting problems. The method is helpful to those offsetting work and can provide more effective offsetting solution.
