Review on Free Piston Linear Alternator
Abstract: This study presents the development methodology of the Free-Piston Linear Alternator/Generator (FPLG). The FPLG is a free-piston combustion engine with an integrated linear generator. The engine can be used as a range-extending device in an electric vehicle. Unlike conventional internal combustion engines, a free-piston linear engine has no a crankshaft, and thus the pistons move freely in the cylinder. This allows a free-piston linear engine to easily adjust the compression …

Need for an Integrated Modelling Approach for Mixed Traffic Flow Phenomena
Abstract: Traffic flow modelling can be in general categorised into three broad categories.Macroscopic models are generally based on aggregate level of traffic flow; whereasmicroscopic tools are more disaggregated and dynamic in nature. Benefiting from thesteadily increasing availability of affordable computing power, these more detailedmodels have become the tool of choice for operational studies, commonly in the form ofmicroscopic simulators. Among other dynamic models, mesoscopic ones are acompromise between the macro and …

Managing Pavement Settlement Risk: Impact of Waterlogging and Soil Conditions
Abstract: In the context of road infrastructure, the occurrence of waterlogging due to rainfall can have significant repercussions. Rainwater often infiltrates the road surface and, depending on factors such as the depth of the foundation and the extent of penetration into the ground, can lead to the soil beneath the road becoming either moist or saturated. This, in turn, can result in a reduction of the soil's bearing capacity. When vehicles …
