Mobility impacts of a new metro system with transit-oriented development features

Few studies have analyzed the mobility impacts of TOD using a longitudinal research approach, and even fewer incorporated origin–destination (OD) information in the analysis. In this paper, we examine the impacts of a metro system with TOD features on the share of car and bus trips using Metro do Porto as a case study. The application of an...

Effect of two-dimensional surface irregularities on swept wing transition: Forward facing steps

An experimental investigation was carried out to examine the effect of two-dimensional Forward Facing Steps surface irregularities, on the laminar-to-turbulent boundary-layer transition on a 45° swept-wing. For the clean reference case, the numerical boundary-layer flow is calculated from pressure measurements, and a thorough linear stability...

Performance of C&DW materials for road applications validated by field monitoring

SUPREMA – Sustainable Application of Construction and Demolition Recycled Materials in Road Infrastructures was a research project developed by the Laboratório Nacional de Engenharia Civil (LNEC), in cooperation with the University of Lisbon (IST). The use of recycled materials has major environmental and economic benefits. Its recycling...
