Examining Drivers’ Behaviors To Connected And Automated Vehicles, Hany Hassan, Taniya Sultana Sep 2022

Examining Drivers’ Behaviors To Connected And Automated Vehicles, Hany Hassan, Taniya Sultana

Data

It is envisioned that Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) are the future of transportation as they can assist in minimizing some inefficiencies with the current transport systems. However, it is not clear how drivers of conventional vehicles would interact with CAVs in a mixed traffic environment containing both CAVs and human driven vehicles (HDVs). Thus, this study aims to investigate drivers’ behaviors towards CAVs through driving simulation experiment and national survey study. Two on-ramp and two off-ramp driving simulation scenarios were designed where drivers were asked to merge with two-lane highway in presence of HDVs and CAVs truck platoon in …

Improved A-Efie System For Electromagnetic Simulation In Low Frequency Regime, Wen Jing Chen, Sheng Sun, Yang Liu, Lijun Jiang, Jun Hu

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

In this letter, the quasi-Helmholtz projectors are applied to address numerical cancellation of augmented electric field integral equation (A-EFIE). The projectors rescale the term overline {bf V} cdot i{k}_0{bf j} and right-hand side to guarantee that the solution is stable at very low frequency. The improved system is full rank without removing the singularity caused by charge neutrality. Compared to the EFIE with quasi-Helmholtz projectors, this letter presents a better convergence performance and takes less computational cost. The numerical results show that the solution of both scattering problems and circuit problems can ensure the accuracy in the low-frequency regime.

Global Tellurium Supply Potential From Electrolytic Copper Refining, Nedal T. Nassar, Haeyeon Kim, Max Frenzel, Michael S. Moats, Sarah M. Hayes

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The transition towards renewable energy requires increasing quantities of nonfuel mineral commodities, including tellurium used in certain photovoltaics. While demand for tellurium may increase markedly, the potential to increase tellurium supply is not well-understood. In this analysis, we estimate the quantity of tellurium contained in anode slimes generated by electrolytic copper refining by country between 1986 and 2018, including uncertainties. For 2018, the results indicate that 1930 (1500-2700, 95% confidence interval) metric tons of tellurium were contained in anode slimes globally. This is nearly quadruple the reported tellurium production for that year. China has the greatest potential to increase tellurium …

Extrusion-based 3D printing with rapidly hardening polymeric materials is capable of building almost any conceivable structure. However, concrete, one of the most widely used materials for large-scale structural components, is generally based on inorganic binder materials like Portland cement. Unlike polymeric materials, a lack of precise control of the extent and rate of solidification of cement-based suspensions is a major issue that affects the ability to 3D-print geometrically complex structures. Here, we demonstrate a novel method for controllable-rapid solidification of concentrated mineral suspensions that contain a polymer binder system based on epoxy and thiol precursors as well as one or …

Mechanical Activation And Cation Site Disorder In Mgal2o4, Cole A. Corlett, Matthias D. Frontzek, Nina Obradovic, Jeremy Lee Watts, William Fahrenholtz

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The synthesis and crystallographic site occupancy were investigated for MgAl2O4 with and without mechanical activation of the precursor powders. Heating to 1200 °C or higher resulted in the formation of a single spinel phase regardless of whether the powders were mechanically activated or not. Neutron diffraction analysis was used to determine cation site occupancy and revealed that mechanical activation resulted in a lower degree of cation site inversion compared to the nonactivated materials, which indicated that the powders were closer to thermodynamic equilibrium. This is the first study to characterize the effects of mechanical activation on crystallographic site occupancy in …

A Hybridizable Discontinuous Galerkin Time-Domain Method With Robin Transmission Condition For Transient Thermal Analysis Of 3-D Integrated Circuits, Xuan Zhang, Ping Li, Xiao Chun Li, Li (Lijun) Jun Jiang, Jun Fa Mao

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

In this article, a discontinuous Galerkin time-domain (DGTD) method hybridized with Robin transmission condition (RTC-DGTD) is proposed for the transient thermal analysis of 3-D integrated circuits (ICs). As a kind of domain decomposition method (DDM), the DGTD method employs a term named numerical flux for the information exchange of solutions between neighboring subdomains. The numerical flux is a function of both temperature T and heat flux q, and thus for the heat equation, apart from T, the variable q has to be solved as well. To reach this, the traditional DGTD method decomposes the second-order partial-differential thermal equation into two …
