Poor pedestrian infrastructure and road connectivity can deter people from walking to local parks. Using data the ground observation of sidewalk Google Earth, research was undertaken evaluate fundamental accessibility features built environment such as availability quality well connectivity. The study analysed network density, sidewalks within a neighbourhood park's buffer area, by using ‘sidewalk index (SAQI)’ ‘connectivity index’. SAQI recognises that access is dependent on pedestrian's...

Brake-system dynamics still represents a key question for the understanding and quantification of self-excited vibrations in automotive applications. Conventionally, brake systems is analyzed by using complex eigenvalue analysis, which consists linearizing nonlinear equations motion at sliding state solving quadratic problem there. This method, however, only reproduces local vibration behavior, tends to overestimate number instabilities, its resulting eigenvectors do not provide amplitudes...

This paper presents an analysis of the correlation effect in uncertainty estimation a system for humidity generation based on two pressures principle. In order to compare validity calculations, methods evaluating uncertainty, including between input variables, were used. The first one was classical approximation applicability central limit theorem, while second consisted propagation distributions using Monte Carlo simulations. obtained results show that usual assumption negligible...

The dynamical analysis of complex structures often suffers from large computational efforts, so that the application substructuring methods has gained increasing importance in last years. Substructuring enables dividing finite element models and reducing resulting multiple bodies, yielding a reduction of, this case, eigenvalue calculation time. This method is used to predict appearance friction-induced vibrations such as squeal brake systems. Since very sensitive changes parameter values,...
