A Multi-modal Routing Approach Combining Dynamic Ride-sharing and Public Transport
Abstract Ride-sharing facilitates cheap and eco-friendly mobility. In contrast to classical ride-sharing that basically works like a notice-board, dynamic ride-sharing allows a passenger to get a lift on a section of a driver's route and, if...

Structural design of isolated column footings
Abstract Superstructure loads are transmitted to the underlying soil strata through a suitably designed foundation. Therefore, the foundation of a structure is considered the most crucial structural element in a building. The foundation may be...

Creating Dynamic Requirements through Iteratively Prototyping Critical Functionalities
Abstract This paper introduces the wayfaring model for requirement generation. Rather than pre-fixing requirements, we propose exploring unknown unknowns, and suggest finding and adapting the emerging set-based requirements while exploring....

Crack propagation in layers under small-scale yielding
Abstract The stress field is obtained in an isotropic elastic layer containing an edge dislocation. The dislocation solution is used to derive integral equations for a cracked layer. These are a set of Cauchy singular integral equations which are...

The elastic properties of hcp-Fe1−xSix at Earth's inner-core conditions
Abstract The density of the Earth's inner core is less than that of pure iron and the P-wave velocities and, particularly, the S-wave velocities in the inner core observed from seismology are lower than those generally obtained from mineral physics. ...
