  • Stochastic Evolutions of Dynamic Traffic Flow

    Modeling and Applications

    by Li Li, Qixin Shi, Xiqun (Michael) Chen ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book reveals the underlying mechanisms of complexity and stochastic evolutions of traffic flows. Using Eulerian and Lagrangian measurements, the authors propose lognormal headway/spacing/velocity distributions and subsequently develop a Markov car-following model to describe drivers’ random choices concerning headways/spacings, putting forward a stochastic fundamental diagram model for wide ...

  • Book of Extremes

    Why the 21st Century Isn’t Like the 20th Century

    by Ted G. Lewis ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    What makes the 21st century different from the 20th century? This century is the century of extremes -- political, economic, social, and global black-swan events happening with increasing frequency and severity. Book of Extremes is a tour of the current reality as seen through the lens of complexity theory – the only theory capable of explaining why the Arab Spring happened and why it will happen ...

  • Breakdown in Traffic Networks

    Fundamentals of Transportation Science

    by Boris S. Kerner ...
    This book offers a detailed investigation of breakdowns in traffic and transportation networks. It shows empirically that transitions from free flow to so-called synchronized flow, initiated by local disturbances at network bottlenecks, display a nucleation-type behavior: while small disturbances in free flow decay, larger ones grow further and lead to breakdowns at the bottlenecks. Further, it ... Read more

  • Service Network Design of Bike Sharing Systems

    Analysis and Optimization

    by Patrick Vogel ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This monograph presents a tactical planning approach for service network design in metropolitan areas. Designing the service network requires the suitable aggregation of demand data as well as the anticipation of operational relocation decisions. To this end, an integrated approach of data analysis and mathematical optimization is introduced. The book also includes a case study based on real-world ... Read more

  • Statistical Physics of Non-Thermal Phase Transitions

    From Foundations to Applications

    by Sergey G. Abaimov ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book addresses the application of methods used in statistical physics to complex systems—from simple phenomenological analogies to more complex aspects, such as correlations, fluctuation-dissipation theorem, the concept of free energy, renormalization group approach and scaling. Statistical physics contains a well-developed formalism that describes phase transitions. It is useful to apply ... Read more

  • Dynamics of Complex Autonomous Boolean Networks

    by David P. Rosin ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This thesis focuses on the dynamics of autonomous Boolean networks, on the basis of Boolean logic functions in continuous time without external clocking. These networks are realized with integrated circuits on an electronic chip as a field programmable gate array (FPGA) with roughly 100,000 logic gates, offering an extremely flexible model system. It allows fast and cheap design cycles and large ... Read more
