An extensive investigation of an eco-approach controller under a partially connected and automated vehicle environment

This study evaluated the performance of an eco-approach control system at signalized intersections under a partially connected and automated vehicle (CAV) environment. This system has the first eco-approach controller able to function with the existence of surrounding human-driven traffic. A previous evaluation only confirmed its benefits....

Food Island: Creating a Resilient Food System for the AMA

Governments and private and non-profit organisations from international to local levels have acknowledged the idea that more sustainable systems are required to reduce our ecological footprint (WWF, 2016, Jonkhoff, 2012). The food system is a very important aspect within our lives, socially as well as economically but it is also one of the most...

Applying the epidemic spreading model on the brain network to explain effective connectivity

Network science studies a complex system as a network to capture the connectivity patterns and topological features. Different network topologies have been observed to shape dynamic spread- ing processes on the network in various ways, while the exact relationship is complicated and not yet fully understood. Epidemic models are often applied to...
