A photon enters an extraordinarily intense laser field. When it exits, its polarization has rotated, as though empty space ...

Aluminum die-cast components are widely used in automotive and precision machinery applications due to their combination of ...

When engineers at Sumitomo Riko needed to speed up the design cycle for automotive rubber and polymer components, they turned ...

The transportation community has long used two distinct simulator types without any formal integration between them. First, are microscopic Traffic Simulation (S) models, which simulate the movement ...

This chapter presents the results of the literature review for operational traffic simulation models. Sources compiled for the literature review include guidance documents (general and DOT-specific), ...

As electronic devices become increasingly miniaturized, heat management at the nanoscale emerges as a challenge, especially for devices operating in sub-microns. Traditional heat conduction models ...

DETROIT ARSENAL—The Center for Army Analysis has given two of its prestigious Modeling & Simulation awards to the U.S. Army DEVCOM Ground Vehicle Systems Center. Both awards, in the team category—one ...

Worst-case scenario simulations ensure manufacturing is prepared for all contingencies, but over-sizing or under-sizing may ensue. This results in larger than necessary filters and columns that may ...

SHIFT-Crash predicts full-vehicle crash response in seconds, dramatically accelerating crashworthiness certification ...

Systematic, well-designed, and implementable research is the most effective way to solve many problems facing state department of transportation (DOT) administrators and engineers. Often, highway ...
